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!

It's fixin' to get bad here, I suspect. Good for Steve, though...he needs the data!

Did you know he's turned in a rough draft? It still needs data, but it's a step in the right direction!!

Enjoy your day outside!

I should be cleaning up the house...I don't like a cluttered house when it's fixin' to storm for some reason! But I'm having my vertigo and walking around is too difficult! LOL

I wonder if it's the change in barametric pressure or something, causing the rocking and rolling this time?

Monring!

Yeah, I've got some of that aspirin weed killer too. The bottle's the same color as the aspirin plant food so I have to make sure and read the label carefully. :)

If I figure out schedule D by the end of the race I'll go out and throw some seeds in the planter box.

Rosie and Elizabeth went to Mass. I got to school and back to change the tapes but it was very stressful for me, visibility is bad and by the time I got back there was a half-inch of snow on the roads. It's really unpleasant out there. And our power is flickering insistently. All the lines are buried and I've never yet lost power, but...

Oh my goodness. And she took her snow tires off, didn't she!

I'm anxious to hear how she liked Mass at the new church...

Here they are...this is what my new wheels should look like. This from the 1971 owner's manual.

The guy in OKC said he was going to go out and get his best ones (he had five). He said they have a little rust, but are ok otherwise. I am going to have them sandblasted (eventually) and possibly powdercoated.

Candles and matches. And very little food that can be eaten without heating. I doubt we'll actually lose power, though.

Do any of you westerners know how to pronounce "chipotle?"
It looks like our household is going to start cooking with them.

Heh... there's a restaurant by our department called Chipolte's and we all call it "Chi-pol-tees". But we know how it's really pronounced.
