The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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!

Can I get some help with these boxes?

And do you have any idea how hard it is to rent a truck at 12:51:02 AM EDT? And can I get a single this time, even if it's tiny? (Name redacted) snores.

Oh well... soon as I get this frap unpacked I'll put some burgers on the grill. Call "rare" or "well done", and do you want the mushrooms or cheese...

Mornin'.

Got to work at 7:15am. I can't stay in the Hole since I've got tons to do, but it's a bit gloomy and sprinkling outside.

They expect the weather to get worse throughout the day, so here's hoping i get out before it gets too bad.

Corin - I have the cell number that I've called you before with. If it has changed since then, please FR mail me. :-D

I'll try to get some pictures of the storm if I can. Maybe some before and after shots of what the weak side of a Cat1 hurricane can do. *grin*

Love you guys!

Eeeek! Stay safe! (even if it's *just* a Cat1) :)
