The Hobbit Hole XIII - Let them pass! Let them pass!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 07/13/2004 9:49:23 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Let them pass! Let them pass!
(Note to dwarves, this is only meant figuratively)

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!

I'm so glad I got the chance to go out and find this place. If I'm gonna live there for at least a year, I don't want to make a mistake!

Where I'm going is really very safe, but I'm a girl and I worry about these things. At the very least, I'm getting some sort of mace/pepper spray for my keychain.

The gray was our compromise

Yeah, all black would have been VEY depressing!

When I was a teenager, my parents let me have my own color scheme in my room. In fact, they did the changes while I was away once, also! It was royal blue and emerald green. Even the carpet was fleck of royal blue and green! I loved it! The walls stayed off-white, but I was able to paint the bed royal blue, and put royal blue shutters on the windows as 'curtains'.

It is hoped that the weather will cooperate for your vacation. I sure hope it cooperates for ours!

I hope so too, for yours as well as mine. Last year the weather was kinda crappy. But the main thing is getting away for a week.

You're probably putting some union electricians out of work for daring to fix the light on your own, you know.

LOL!! I know what you mean. Our condo is on the 7th floor this year, so if the weather is not the best, I could just sit on the balcony and look out over the Gulf of Mexico!

Ooh, right to work is nice... my sister's got a job as a checkout clerk this summer and they forced her to join the union, or they wouldn't employ her. I think she should have found another job, but... they take almost as much out of her paychecks as FICA does, some weeks!

Cool logo for the new sub! Is that the actual one? I like that Texas flag streaming out the back of the conning tower!
