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!

Heh, yeah, that international shipping will kill you. One of my friends is in Switzerland with her family for the summer and she's gonna be offline for a week, waiting.

Glad you got under the wire! Can't be without your book! And I admire your fortitude... we can wait overnight, but the next day, we're up and running.

Bummer on the order. I ordered the #5 novel in the Stephanie Plum series but it won't be here until about the 27th. I'll go nuts before then. I've already started re-reading the first four because I refuse to read #6 even though I have that one already. Might have to make a special trip to a further away bookstore to get it. Oh the agony.

We're just speechless...

We watched that movie on the plane on the way back from Entmoot. We use it as an example of a movie one might use to put someone into a coma ;~D We thought it was really bad!

Sorry ;~D

I haven't been to the library yet, but I know they have all of her books at our local branch.

Evening, How about "Northwest Passage" with Spencer Tracy and John Payne?

An all time favorite of ours is "the Wind and the Lion" Sean Connery, Brian Keith Candice Bergen et al. Well done, not especially historically accurate but good story line, costuming and weaponry. hmmmm. weaponry

Heh, still lots of thunder and lightning and little rain. Gypsygirl is not a happy camper.

We saw NbNW some time ago, pretty good as I recall.

Just occasional thunder here. And it's cooled off a bit. Miss Cat doesn't mind the storms as long as the lightning strikes aren't close.

Good evening! Don't 'spect storms till after midnight, meaning Steve's not gonna get much sleep tonight.

I'm checking the weather online for him...yeah, that's the ticket.

I want to go play on roller coasters but nobody here likes them

What sort of roller coasters are available to you?

End o' July I hope to be on some pretty good coasters at Michigan's Adventure, which started when a guy with some land bought a used coaster. Now it's a big amoozment/water park run by a Giant Amoozmnet/Water Park Corporate Conglomerate.
