The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

Visiting relatives.

Back! The King Soopers I went to didn't have the right dressing stuff, but they did have other flavors by the same brand...so if there's a big one within sight of the freeway when we stop sometime, I suppose we could check. Or maybe in the town we stop for the night there'll be a grocery chain that carries 'em? We'll see, I guess.

Kitties are as set as they're gonna be, though they're eyeing the feeders with much trepidation. I guess they'll get over it.

Also got sunscreen, a hugh water bottle, and Dramanine in case of emergencies. It's the knock-out kind (that was the cheapest), so if I take it, I won't be very good company. But I figured it wouldn't hurt to at least have it.

That's ok, I don't like company anyway.... and I sometimes have hotel-sleeping problems.

Be home soon as I can sneak out.

Argh! I mean "their" way out, not "there." I hate it when I do that!

Looks like Mooters are arriving safely and having a good time!

How many people were supposed to attend ShootMoot?

2J and family, Overtaxed, Osagebowman, TalonDJ, JenB and Rosie.. oh and g'nad.

Not sure if I am leaving anyone out or not!

We had to cancel in order to have our horse trailer, $$$-wise... and also because our other required trip to AZ was a stress event to find horse and dog care.

We have an extra coffeepot; I'm running white vinegar through it now to clean out the mineral deposits and OB will bring it down tomorrow. LSA
