The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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,
 Well 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 actually think they saw me taking pictures and made that last circle for me just so I could." Excellent. My twin brother, who is an ex Navy guy, tells me that military helicopters love to fly wherever they can find pretty women...

    Tulsa. That the ARNG from north Tulsa. We've been waving at them since 9/11 and one day they started circling our house. They've done it quite a few times. We thanked them in a letter and they offered to let us tour their unit. I gave them a few HH knives. 
 
They're a great group of men. We really get a kick out of it when they circle.

    I went through Tulsa about a month ago and that's as about as lost as I have ever been.

    I gotta go get groceries. Steve's coming home to fix the turbine on the roof that leaks. 
 
Might rain...he's "on call".

    Coming from Texas into Tulsa on I-44 I asked a toll taker if there was a by pass. He directed me to one and from there I got completely off track somehow and ended up east bound on 412 in the middle of nowhere. 
 
On reflection though I have been more lost than that. (Cleveland, Ohio)

    *sigh* Chick flick therapy. 
 So good to not have a ball game on. :)
To: Lil'freeper
    Yawn. I took a nice nap. Had very strange dreams. Action-movie dreams. Involving bad guys who were going to unleash the new Harry Potter book on the world early.

    Did I tell you I got an e-mail from AmazonUK that our HP British version books wouldn't be delivered until July 27TH!! I cancelled that order for the three, then re-ordered just one, cause Clare really wants a full British set. Joseph and I could care less, so I called our local Borders about 9:45 that night to see if I could pre-order for pick up at the midnight party. Apparently I was just under the wire for the pre-orders; the cut off was that night! 
So I have two that we'll pick up at midnight on the 15th, but I'm going to keep them overnight so Clare won't start reading. She and I have to get up at 7:30 the following morning. I'm dropping her off at a Girl Scout yard sale, and I'm going over to Boston to do some GS Leader training. If she starts reading it, she stay up late, and go to sleep late, and I'll never get her up, or if she stays up without sleeping at all, she'll be worthless for working at the yard sale. She's thinking of going down to CT with a friend to ConnectiCon that afternoon, so she might take the book and read it on the way. I told her to read it out loud so her friend, Rebecca, who is driving, can enjoy it too!
