The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

OK - Since we have two fine whistles that need loving homes, perhaps there is someone else out there who would like to have the extra! Lets see if anyone chimes in!
To: HairOfTheDog
This is such a great group!

OK, here's what I'll do. I'll get Hair's whistle with a batch of her new recipe cookies.
If I discover that I do have a talent for it, then I can ask Vim if he still wants his and pay the shipping and stuff. Does that sound workable?
Of course, if any other musically-inclined Hole dweller wants to take up Vim's offer and he accepts, this Hobbit lass is happy to be satisfied with one whistle. I must resist the temptations I see others *cough* *Kim* *cough* *Rosie* face when they see other whistles. I must not covet my neighbor's whistles.

To: Overtaxed; RosieCotton
After all this whistle talk, I'm dying to practice...my fingers are twitching. But Matthew is doing his math and Joshua is watching Spiderman...it wouldn't go over right now.
Look Rosie, another convert!
To: RMDupree
Ruthy, both Vim's and Hair's whistles are exactly the same...both Feadógs in the key of D with the same disk and booklet.
To: 2Jedismom; All
This has to be the greatest group of friends on the planet!!!
I'm going to be a blubbering mess when we finally get together at Entmoot.

LOL
To: 2Jedismom
Oh, alrighty then!
Then we can hope that Vim picks up the whistle and practices for Entmoot. If he plays loud enough, it will cover my squeaking noises quite nicely!

But at least I don't covet my neighbor's hobbit! I have my eye on you...
Hi, gang! I'm wayyyyy behind here at the Hole. Was busy over the weekend, and it's busy here at work, too. I gather I missed puppy pictures, 2J? Need to get back and find those...
To: 2Jedismom
Hehehe...no whistling at work, unfortunately.
Must practice, must practice .....poor kitty!

...perhaps there is someone else out there who would like to have the extra! Lets see if anyone chimes in! Part of me wants to say, "I do! I do," but the reality is it would just end up sitting on the already not-used piano. And I have seven years of lessons already invested there...
To: HairOfTheDog
"OK - Since we have two fine whistles that need loving homes, perhaps there is someone else out there who would like to have the extra! Lets see if anyone chimes in!"I would love to give the whistle a try! I love playing instruments. I have a piano, a guitar, a psaltry and a violin so far in my little conservatory (located against the living room wall lol).
To: RosieCotton
Hi Rosie! How did the audition/practice go?

To: 2Jedismom
I was thinking, since Pip will be living with my mom...I should get him this.LOL!! So you think she'll stress him out?

Dawntreader wants it!
This is so neat! I can't wait to get together for the moot.
We need to start passing out some relatively easy and fun sheet music to start preparing.
To: Corin Stormhands
Hi Corin, had forgotten you are musical, now I remember you are involved in the church Christmas musical. I sort of like the sounds made by flute like instruments.
To: Overtaxed
Currently $50. Just went on sale last night.
To: RosieCotton
But at least I don't covet my neighbor's hobbit! I have my eye on you...*shamefilled expression* Guilty as charged, I'm afraid. *sigh* But I DO try, really I do.
That aside, so nice to see you Rosie! And just in time for lunch!
