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!

They do that on purpose just to make you think you're getting your money's worth. :-)

I wore a yellow one at the wedding itself, but I had a blue one that I wore one of the other days I was there.

Hi, Suzi.

Infidel doesn't know what he's talking about according to my understanding of what he said - the weathermen are right in referring to a nor'easter here and he's wrong, but I don't want to be so blunt on that thread. It used to be my job to understand something of weather and I didn't forget it yet.

I envy you guys with all the snow, though.

So... got some pictures here, a few of which I thought I'd share with the class...

These were taken from the roof of the building where I work. It's pretty peaceful up there! The big flat building in the pic that has mountains (look closely; they look a bit like clouds) is a Mormon religious center of some sort - it's not any sort of church, they do training classes there and host their missionaries.

These are from the bus stop at school. The one with mountains is my favorite view in Fort Collins. I get to see that every day. The other shows the engineering deparment - on the left - which I thought you might like to see, it's a much nicer building than CS has, too - and the student center on the right. I have lunch there sometimes and that's where the anime club meets.

I only have two pics from the neighborhood so I'm going to hang onto those and collect a few more, then email them to you.

You can HAVE the snow, Sam! I've enjoyed it about as much as I can stand! LOL! It really hasn't been that bad this year since we got the van with AWD. It has made all the difference in my confidence in driving in newly fallen snow that's fairly deep (4-6") It has handled beautifully, and the heated seats aren't bad on chilly mornings, either! ;o)

Actually is is nice watching it come down. That's what I'm going to enjoy about the remodel. The whole kitchen/family room will have windows facing the Southeast, and it will be lovely sitting in front of the fire and being able to see the snow falling, too.
