The Hobbit Hole XXVIII - Through shadows to the edge of night

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Through shadows to the edge of night
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! |

find out the date they circled my house three times (when I got that series of photos)Well, I can't find it... I've found lots of references to helicopters circling your house, but I can't find any reference to you taking pictures of them... do you remember which time it was, or when it might have happened?
To: 2Jedismom
Duh, of course, as soon as I posted that, I found 'em...
here they are!

Hey there - I see you over there :~D

Good evening! Yep, I'm back. Little late - I had to run down south to deposit my first check.
But it was a little more than I thought it would be...worth the trip.
To: HairOfTheDog
I mean...up north.
Ungh...I knew what I meant!
To: RosieCotton
Indeed worth the trip... even if you have to go north to get south ;~D

Still over an hour and a half to go. *bites nails*
When should I come over?
I suppose I should be tidying, but I'm brain dead again. I'd better get some Red Bull or something before my follow up interview tomorrow morning. Eek!
To: RosieCotton
Around 7 we'll be makin' dinner :~D

Be over in a bit...
To: RosieCotton
Well, you can come over any time... :~D
We've got to head out to put horses to bed in a few minutes here, then we're just hangin' out.

Hi there!
I'm at da hotel. At da waterin hole away from the waterin' hole, away from da waterin' hole. Da Waterin' hole 3 times-removed, as it were.
It ~was~ kinda funny, though... I haven't been here in what... 3 months? I check in and proceed through the lobby/bar area... and suddenly its all "Hey! Mister R_____! Welcome back!" from the bar staff... and a double WT rocks and a draft Gordon Biersh Marzen appear magically on the bar.
[sigh] Good service here. :-)
