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

Posted on 03/05/2005 11:51:13 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

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!

Mary Poppins is great. All the songs are memorable and singable. Not bad for Disney at all.

Is there some kind of contest going on to see how many opus threads can be posted in one day?

Sheesh.

No wonder I come straight in here when I visit FR.

Apparently there is some kind of contest... appropriate for an April Fool's Day, I think! ;)

Good evening!

I'm thinking of taking Clare and Joseph to see it this weekend.

Ohhh, no. No, no, no... I would not recommend that. Not until they're 30... maybe 35. More full explanation to be posted shortly...

I'm gonna try the cayenne pepper.

Maybe your squirrels like hot food.

I just want to take this opportunity that I will not be posting again on FR....

Much. Tomorrow. Because I need to celebrate my personal victories and triumphs of the past week, and get away from the ghoulishness of the news in general; because it's a light homework weekend; and because every time I look at the forecast I like it better. My destination?

Royal Gorge, Colorado. If I don't get that far I'll stop at Pike's Peak.

I fell down a boulder at Royal Gorge in June, 1969 and tore a gash in my knee! I had ridden up to CO with some folks I didn't even know, to attend my brother's graduation from the USAF Academy. I was with a young woman whose fiancee was graduating with Gerry. She had arranged for a ride with these folks and asked my Mama if either my sister or I could go along.

The folks decided to stop at Royal Gorge before we went on into Colorado Springs. I'm afraid my spill cut short their visit. They drove me to one of the instructor's homes, where I was to meet my brother. He was late getting there, so I sat there in pain waiting. What a bummer! Still have a scar from that!

Cool place, though.

My favorite Opus. Bloom County was one of our favorite cartoons.

It was my own stoopid fault. It was early June, and we had driven up from MS, so I was wearing sandals, and they were NOT designed for climbing up onto rocks! If you're wearing sneakers, you'll be fine.
