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!

Well everyone, getting settled back in now, and starting to sleep again. We are working nights now and it is going well. It is about 30 degrees cooler at night, and we sleep all day while it is hot. An added bonus is a 10pm curfew for the Iraqis, so there is no one out at night, and if they are they are probably up to no good. Just wanted to give everyone a quick update.

P.S. WN, Aaron got his noodles and is very greatful. He was on leave with me too. I had a package waiting when I came back. THank you so much. THe hard candy didnt make it again. THanks for everything.

Morning! Promises to be another nice one. I remain swamped- slogging through a miserable report. *alas*

Good morning! Sunny for now, though I bet it'll rain again. I'm supposed to go out to lunch with Mom and sisters, we'll see.

Good morning! Another VERY muggy day here. Ick. And I just dropped a good portion of my breakfast on the floor. *snif*

I still have coffee. Guess that's a plus. Losing that would have been a SERIOUS disaster.

Oh, no! You'll have to have lunch early, or something.

I have plenty of snacks. And I'd already eaten quite a bit of it.

Still ticks me off, though!

Like I said, at least it wasn't the coffee. *sip*

Went pretty well! It was too hot to even breathe in the house, so we carpooled over to a park near my brothers' apartment. There were a few bugs, but not bad, and we got in a pretty good practice before it started getting dark. And I walked home - it was just too nice a night not to take advantage of it, and it was still fairly early.

We still don't have a complete set-list for Saturday, but we're gonna meet on Friday before the jam and come up with something.
