New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, Beneath the roof there is a bed; But not yet weary are our feet, Still round the corner we may meet A sudden tree or standing stone That none have seen but we alone. Tree and flower and leaf and grass, Let them pass! Let them pass! Hill and water under sky, Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait A new road or a secret gate, And though we pass them by today, Tomorrow we may come this way And take the hidden paths that run Towards the Moon or to the Sun. Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe, Let them go! Let them go! Sand and stone and pool and dell, Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread Through shadows to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Then world behind and home ahead, We’ll wander back to home and bed. Mist and twilight, cloud and shade, Away shall fade! Away shall fade! Fire and lamp, and meat and bread, And then to bed! And then to bed!

I win.

[Corin Stormhands]

Just 'cause everybody's doing it...

If everybody jumped into a mountain of fire, would you do that too?

[Overtaxed]

The squirrels are out...

[RosieCotton]

Does the Ring come free with the jump?

[RosieCotton]

I win.

It's all in how you look at it...

If we're scorin' this like golf, *I* win.

[Corin Stormhands]

You have to buy the Hobbit Fingers Happy Meal to get the prize...

[Corin Stormhands]

If we're scorin' this like golf, *I* win.

Not necessarily. You could actually play golf in my weather...

Our temps are the same as yours right now.

Good morning, all!

I bet those parks are full!

Last night at Aldis, we were putting the groceries in the car and I said "What's that?" It was dark and what I saw was a band of heavy rain coming at us from under the lights across the parking lot! The boys were just standing there waiting while Steve and I were putting the groceries in the car and I started shoving them in the car yelling "Get in quick!!" Steve and I got a bit soaked.

Chickens are fine...the coop is enclosed in plastic. They are dry.

[Overtaxed]

That's good. I wouldn't want them to get mad as a wet hen.

[HairOfTheDog]

Mornin'!

Gotta go out and feed the critters....

~sip~

[Corin Stormhands]

If you fed 'em inside like we do ours, you wouldn't have to go out into the cold...

[HairOfTheDog]

Heh... We could try to set up the spare room for horses... They'd like that.

[Corin Stormhands]

We visited a reindeer farm in Alaska. They had problems with a couple of the reindeer coming into the kitchen...

[ecurbh]

They shoulda told 'em "If you're in the kitchen, you're dinner!"

[2Jedismom]

Good morning!!

[Corin Stormhands]

I never did try the reindeer sausage...

[Corin Stormhands]

~sigh~

[g'nad]
