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! |

Perfect graphic!
I'm here...the pinewood derby started 2 minutes ago at TCDTS.
Matthew came in second place against just the other Crusaders in his class last time...this is a regional meet (Tulsa and surrounding areas). So they worked late into the night to modify and perfect his car. It's now razor-thin with a slight taper forward...hopefully he'll do all right.
(I stuck a F-16 sticker on the top of it, with his permission. Heh heh!)

Not sure we'll ever know the outcome on the dumped stuff..
She's got all her things over there except the bed and the cats. I'm waiting for her to say "it's time to move the bed" and I'll know she's ready to go over there. We might get closer today, my dad's coming down with tools and such to do some of the handyman tasks the handyman left undone... We need to get her a shower installed before she can really use that bathroom.

I hope Matthew does good...he was really worried because they were supposed to be working on it and Steve didn't come home all this past week till like 10:30pm every evening! Steve got the draft in Thursday evening and was able to come home last night to work on it...they really worked hard!

Off ro run some errands and such.
Hoping the weather holds up and I can take Becky to Hobie Beach for a bit to see if the ocean air clears up some of that cough she has.
At the very least, I need to take her to pick up some jeans. She's outgrown all but 2 pairs. :-/
Be back later!

The bears didn't even kill the kid, right? Sheesh. Stupid kid, stupid parents. I hope they got a proper scare, at least, maybe it'll teach 'em to be better parents.

I don't blame the kid. He was just bein' a kid.
