The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

She's up there somewhere. That house prolly got hit by a twister. It's far from the hurricane.

CBS is talking about what to do if your kid isn't in the "IN" crowd at school.

Good Lord. There's a hurricane blowing through a section of the country and they're talking about childhood popularity.

You need FoxNews:

Great!

I'm listening to the scanner from Orlando....somebody called because the temperature was 68 degrees.

"Turn the heat on."

"Put on a long sleeve shirt."

Hey just got back in from town, spoke to Ruthy and told her to call you, cuz I lost the number. I am well north of Melbourne, we have only some rain here. Nobody I have spoken to in Miami has power. I am watching the streaming local news at www.wfor.com if anyone else wants to check it out. I'll go back into town a bit later and call again and post an update.

Haven't found one yet, but there's probably one out there somewhere!

I'm listening to icecast.org. They've got Orlando and Tampa scanners.
