The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

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!

Sushi is wrong. You're absolutely right. But then, I don't eat cooked fish. Weird ethnic foods aren't safe anyway.

I think I'll have something nice and normal tomorrow. Like curry.

Lovely, normal Thai stir-fry-ish stuff. It's cooked in yellow goo that reminds me of all sorts of unpleasant things, but it tastes so good. And it can be spicy enough to make you cry...

Yawn... soon as I burn some stuff to disk so my computer has a few free gig, I'm going to bed...

David called tonight and told me about the orientation for new PhD, and Masters students. In walks the coordinator of the event with 20 pizzas! There were 25 students there. She was appalled cause she had planned for 40 students. She then sent an e-mail to all the faculty and any students who were around telling them to come meet the new students and have some pizza. David said it was like locusts descending on the food! A friend of his had hoped to abscond with one of the pizzas, but there were only three or four pieces left!

SSQ got Clare a Video Editing package for Christmas. I'll ask him in the morning what it is, and I'll let you know.

BTW....I'm thinking of transferring some VHS stuff to VCD. Do you know of any good software for capturing the video?

You should get her a whistle!!! They are fun, easy to learn, make nice music, you can play 'em under a tree!

Where's that picture of OT and I playing the whistle at your house, ecurb??

That is one of my favorite pictures from the WeddingMoot! I wish we'd gotten to play more!

How funny!

I think it's reading to them that does it. I read to both my boys all the time, especially the old (1930s) Hardy boys. Makes for a more fleshed-out vocabulary.

That's all I can figure.

Good morning! Have you worn the new outfit yet? What's it like? A suit, I'm assuming?

Kid had a way with words.

LOL!

*snif* I had military friends that I miss a lot. Mostly I hung out with a young couple who had one little boy, and then a second while I was there. They were like older siblings...wish I hadn't lost track.

Cute story!

Good morning!

I really need to venture onto the news side today. Anyone heard any more about the Russian planes that went down? Scary stuff. *shudder*

Currently 42 degrees. Brrrrr. Guess summer is officially over? Though it's supposed to get up to 85 later this week.
