The Hobbit Hole XX - And take the hidden paths that run...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
And take the hidden paths that run...
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! |

Nobody I'd rather be chatty with than you-all!
I meant to ask, seeing as this week I have finally acquired my advisor and more or less decided on a thesis area, if not a topic, how No. 2 Son is doing. Will he be coming home over the summer or staying on like me?

Evening 300WM: Thank you for posting the picture, we can fabricate that from useful things laying around the house...:-)
Our biggest trouble makers are the grackles. Nasty birds, doubtless in the employ of Saruman.

Actually, I was the one talking about the welfare rodents eatin' the suet.
I'm gonna try the cayenne pepper. I think Suzi's right. I oughta stick.
And I'm gonna wire the thing shut.

David is staying at UT over the summer, though I think he'll come home for a week or two. I don't know if he's chosen an advisor yet. He's been working hard, but he's enjoying it.

Oy.
Mary Poppins.
Possibly karmic retribution for my playing Gladiator the other night.
First time since 1988, and I remember why.
See y'all on the morrow.

I got this very nice freepmail from DonnerT, who said I could share it with you folks here.
Wes's unit returned last month. He came to see us yeaterday while all the other students who visit us each thursday were here.
He had a letter in one hand, an almost tearfully embarrassed smile on his face and a sheathed knife in the other. We met in the middle of the room and embraced, laughing pounding each others backs. He said "Mr. Don did you do this?" I told him it was from a bunch of great people on the internet who appreciate what he has been doing. He said he felt like he didn't deserve it, because he only went to Germany, but he sure did appreciate it.
He told us about getting the surprise package at mail call with his unit after coming back from a school. To say he was surprised would be an understatement. When he showed it to me I was somewhat surprised too. I had thought it would only be a folding knife. When I get our tax rebate I will be sending you another check.
Thank you and all the Hobbit Holers for letting me be a part of demonstrating to this young man how much we appreciate him.
