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!

Ship me anything you like! I'll toss it into a pile somewhere so it'll be indistinguishable from my crap.

That air cleaner looks nice. We're looking to figure out a way to do a whole house air cleaner when we remodel. We're thinking of installing a small-duct air conditioning system. It doesn't blow dust around like the old one that used the hot air ductwork. We've gotten to where we run the a/c's earlier in the spring and long into the fall simply for dehumidification, and we don't want to open the doors during allergy season, which happens in the Spring AND Fall around here.

This one does the whole house. I don't understand exactly how it works. But I know it will do up to at least 3,000 sq. ft. (no, we don't have that much room).

'Course the cat's kinda got this nice orange glow about her these days...

Been busy, have you? ;-)

I survived the ride home at one thirty...and stopped on the way home for steak and asparagus. All this talk weakened what little resolve I have in such matters, and the desk may be sold, so I figured...

Excuses, excuses, I know!

And I've done a bunch more packing. I'm panicking slightly...realizing I really only have four or five days left to pack, and then I gotta start cleaning!

How much snow have y'all gotten? Right now we've had about 3", but it's kinda hard to tell because the wind is HOWLING so much, the snow isn't staying where it's falling. It's blowing up to 30 mph out there right now, and the gusts are higher that that!
