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!

Check with the state Dept. of Agriculture. At least the one in NC did soil tests.

Gotta have our priorities straight, ya know! ;-)

Hm...I need to go to the grocery, and I'm trying to decide if I'm brave enough to drive or if I should just walk and risk getting soaked by a thunder shower...getting dark out there. Wish I knew where my umbrella was.

That's what that pony is good at... making you love her, even though she has not one productive talent.

Well, Fatty won me over 100%, productive or not.

Even though I think she wanted to bite my elbow for a minute there when I visiting with her by the fence. *grin*

As for the cheeseburgers...I'll be right over!

Mmmm...cheeseburgers... Am I invited, too?

Feeling proud of myself for something stupid: I *drove* to the grocery and used the self-checkout thingie all by myself! For someone who a few months ago was afraid to drive on an interstate with more than two lanes, let alone in *town*, and had never seen one of those new-fangled cashier-less checkout lines, that's pretty good!

Now I can spend the evening reading without guilt.

WAY TO GO, ROSIE!

Even a big city girl like me has trouble with the self-check out thingies. :-D

I don't know, I'd call that a nice talent.
