The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

If you go, then yes, I would like Smarties...

If we go, I'll get some!

Have a month and a half to fit that in.

And the legal side of stuff is started. Luckily it's nothing any big deal. Doesn't take very long, so I actually am doing it ahead of time - but they said that's good anyway.

Wow, a month and a half. Is that all? Cool.

I'm glad you're the one selling a house, not me.

The other day we were all piled in the van coming home from somewhere and we saw this little brown and biege Beetle...very nice shape, looked like a custom paint job!

We pulled up right beside it and waved. There was a young man that obviously got a kick out of our attention, he laughed and waved and then tooted his horn at us!

Toot toot!

I threw my head back and just laughed. I can not wait to hear my little horn toot!

Gonna need ALL new wiring first.

Can't wait to see if the radio works, too...it's a collector's item, did you know? A Sapphire apparently worth about 150-200 bucks. That is, if it works. Which I bet it does, it appears to be in excellent condition.

Ok. Done with my momentary Beetle outburst.

Well...it's really two months, but the next few weeks almost don't count 'cause I'm going to be so busy with getting the house ready.

It's a miata, but it sounded like a bug to me. The bug horn I found in a search wasn't linkable ;~D

Heh... good way to look at things!

Ok, I'm sort of on top of my homework for the moment. Looks like I'll be able to turn in what's due tomorrow. I'm not too sure about the Thursday assignment, though.
