Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A new road or a secret gate...
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! |

Anyone know the best type of (free or cheap) yet easy to learn architectural design software? I have hand-drawn barn plans that I would like to re-do and play with in an easily editable way.
All I need is that the interface be fairly intrinsic, that it have a scale grid that can can zoom in to work small details or go large, up to multiple acreage in size to lay out design of a farm. I don't necessarily need for it to be architectural drawing level detail, I just want to be able to map out layout of walls and such, possibly in 3D to see basic elevations.

Are you going to use your current chickens to breed more, or do you have "just enough"?

Naw, we'll never use these to breed...we'd have to get a rooster and they make too much racket for a neighborhood. We'll probably always have six at the most. It's almost too many, actually, because the yard gets too poopy. We keep them penned up in the summer, but I let 'em loose to run around in the winter because we don't roll around in the grass barefooted anyways. And they love it so much.
Got four eggs today...

Poop's good for the grass though, the grass-hay growers around here lay about two inches of chicken poo from the chicken farm on the pastures in early spring.
To: HairOfTheDog
Yeah, but it's gross when it squeezes up between your toes...

Around here, the wandering flocks of geese provide all the fertilizer we need. Yuck. It's really gross.

It's neither free nor cheap but the Punch! series of architectural/landscape software is a good value. Does 'plans' and nice 3D renders. Very play-able.
