Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!
O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.
O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.
O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!
I have several pictures still that the chaplain sent me of the guys getting stuff from us...I'm going to try to find out if he is in any of those pictures.
God Bless CPL Langarica and his family!
Thanks for letting us know, 2J. That's hard to read.
I don't know if he's in this picture...I'm trying to find out. But nonetheless, lest we forget these smiling faces...I'm posting the picture again. Our Renegades.
Thanks. I'll Check it out. We already have an ancient history program, but I will look at TRISMS anyway. I have become a curriculum junkie.
I have been trying to make an inventory of our homeschool books. Hehe, I think I have logged about 150 books not counting those we just received yesterday and all the books on my shelves downstairs.... And Spiderboy is 8 yrs old. I think I will ask for more bookshelves for Mother's Day.
thanks 2J for keeping us posted. Prayers going out to the soldier's family and unit.
I just told him that Texas has one too, if we move.
Okay ... what's the connection between the song "Route 66" and the emergency room?
I dunno...what??
The same Bobby Troup was a jazz musician, who wrote, among other notable hits, "(Get Your Kicks On) Route 66."
Okay, for you young'uns ... what singer first made "Route 66" a hit?
Somebody's gotta be Corin while he's gone ...!
I would say Nat King Cole...
I recognize that guy! Didn't make the connection, though...
I'll say.
His work, and his insights, have become famous enough that he's easily googled now. I'll just give a link to his hometown newspaper.
Oh dear. I guess I used to wonder if we'd ever find out if we lost one we'd sent something to... I guess some, we will.
Damn.
Thank you for posting the R.C.'s email, though the news is saddening. We've got much to thankful for, having servicemen and women that go into harm's way on our behalf.
Again, thanks for sharing the info with us, we all deeply moved by the sacrifices of the servicemen and women.
And thus forest is renewed, more light reaching the ground, the trees eventually decaying and so the circle commences again.
Did you happen, by chance, to count the rings on any of the cut trees? Likely, few if any alive today saw those trees when they were seedlings.
In AZ, we used 100 year rotation in the Pondersa Pine belt, meaning the trees I marked to cut would not be replaced for a century. Makes one think, it does.
We went to the website for the Dixie Chicken and a T-shirt says they were established in 1974. That was the time were at A&M. I don't recall us going there but we could have. We weren't much for the college bars or bars in general in those days. We were flat broke grad-students.
In college you may party, study, and sleep...pick two.
