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!

LMAO!

That thought just cracks me up.

The winds are gusting at 30-35mph the most, chica. Not enough force to blow around the neighbors just yet.

Good! But still no reason to look. Glad you still have power and DSL!

Ooops, tagline no longer appropriate.

I'm hoping we don't lose power at all since we aren't getting a direct hit.

There's only a rumble of thunder now and again, but not too much wind.

Seems like I got a freebie day off. Gotta love it!

Me too.

It isn't near as bad as the last one, thankfully.

I do think I may have lost the rest of my fence that Katrina left standing. ~sigh~

I can't go and look to be sure until later.

Hmm, in retrospect, that fence was a bad idea!
