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!

Heh...I showed that picture to my brother one time, and he actually knows who the guy is...has met him. Apparently he's a very good piper. Couldn't tell ya his name, though.

I saw a bumper sticker yesterday,

"Pipers to it with Amazing Grace."

Do y'all live anywhere near the Glen Allen (sp) section of Richmond? That's where SirKit's nephew and his family live.

That's on the other side of town from us. But we have lots of friends from church who live over there.

We're south of the River.

When are you coming to visit?

Nothing like starting the morning with a crashed server. Sigh.

Well, that's certainly no reason to kill the thread...

We've only been to Richmond once, to visit SirKit's sister, almost 30 yrs. ago. Don't know when we'll be back, though. We usually see his nephew and family at SirKit's family's reunion. We have to find a new place to have it though, since Perdido Key was trashed by Ivan last year. We're looking at a place in Ft. Morgan AL for next summer.

You may have to wait even longer for Perdido Key. Didn't they get hit by Katrina as well?

Is having to sit through a class presentation that doesn't remotely resemble the actual chapter a reason to kill the thread?

Ah...so Jen is right?

I guess I didn't get the memo.

How can I step on your last nerve today?

Corin Dwarf Nerve Stomp is a good keyword. :)

By the way, who added "1CHEAPDATE" to the keyword, and why?
