The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

Did she? Oh, good! I know she'd been wanting to for awhile.

Yesterday was Bill's birthday. He's over 21 now. Ruh-roh.

Took the quiz at werk, got revolver 100 percent, shotgun 100 percent. Pistol was high ninetys.

Interesting as those are my favorite weapon types. The revolver used as the example was a Colt Python, 4" bbl. That is a suweet revolver.

Wonder what the shotgun was, Win M-97? Win M-12? or one of the new ones.

G'nad: Whoa, I would tend to agree on the blanked out part.

Hair: did you determine the 'why' of the 4WD coming off with the wheel? I trust it is still working properly after being reinstalled with the new wheel.
