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!

I'd consider gardening a fine Sabbath activity. Think of St. Francis of Assissi while you're digging in the dirt. He Praised God through His Creation ALL the time!

Woo hoo! We got a new digi camera from Ramius for our birthdays! And some neat tools; a big magnet for when we drop nails and can't find them (which happened too many times working on stalls, and a sander!

Of course, it depends on availability :)

At the time, everything i ordered was by NSN... but sometimes the req came back with the dreaded "CA" status.

Cancelled, No Explanation Given. Reorder If You Dare.

Am working on a charcoal drawing of W. I've got him holding a sword and with long hair blowing in the wind...he looks like a wild man, it's kind of funny. I have a new digital camera also, so I'll try to put it up tomorrow maybe.

Yeah, kind of - or maybe that Mel Gibson Braveheart guy.

That is actually the way I see W. Liberals do too, IMO - I like him for exactly what they dislike.

They were on the hood and on the back hatch that covers the engine. Not really tacky or anything...around the handles. Discreetly done.

I remember folks painting their Beetles like that all the time! I dated a guy who had a dark green Beetle in the early 70's. His may have even been the same year as yours!

We were almost owners of a beige Beetle in 1981. SSQ's Grandaddy had died, and left a Beetle. SSQ drove it back to Jersey from the funeral in MS. That's the car that we thought got stolen in Ft Lee that time. We'd parked it and gone on a weekend camping trip with a friend. When we returned the bug was gone, and since we weren't even the rightful owners of it, we were truly upset. Turns out, the city had towed it because they declared the area where it was parked a 'No Parking" zone because of some city official's funeral. We ended up having to go out to West Hell, New Jersey at 2 in the morning to ransom the thing! Exciting night! ;o)

You're right, though, they are sort of goofy sounding.

Good morning everyone!!

It never got too bad here as far as the weather, it split up and went right around us to the north and south then reformed on the east side of us into a line.

OT? G'nad? You guys get any bad weather?

It hasbeen gorgeous here the last few days. It's supposed to get rainy tomorrow night, though. Maybe it's the remnants of your bad weather.

I heard on the radio that some airports had delays in CO because of the snow. When are you and Margaret flying to WA?
