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!

Good morning!

Between the evil balloon picture and Hurricane Dennis' mood swings, my mind's a tangle over which disturbs me more!

Lemme go get some coffee first - to help put things in perspective. :-D

Do you know where your hurricane is?

There was also the thread about a robot designed to do boob exams. I just saw the title and knew not to go in. ;-)

I think he wants to go to the Gulf.

*fingers crossed*

I hope that high pressure system over the Atlantic stays put. It's the only thing steering Dennis west at this point. :P

Mornin'

Guess who wasn't packed this a.m. when I got up? (at 4:30 thank you very much).

I saw the Missus off, when to the gym and came home to help Jr. finish packing. We're leaving in just a few.

I'll check in later today sometime.

It's looking like we got away with it on this one, but I've got kind of a sense of foreboding with a major storm so early in the season.

The old rhyme used to go:

June, too soon
July, stand by
August, come she must
September, remember
October, all over

Good morning, everyone.

(((Sam)))

Do you think we'll be lucky this year like we were last year?

I have the feeling that we will be. I hope I'm right. I did read somewhere that after Dennis passes, there could be a couple weeks of quiet. Hope so.

How are the little ones?

They're doing wonderfully.

Alyson is talking more and more every day and Becky is geared up and ready to shop for her new school clothes. :-D

Pretty quiet..... the lava dome's been building and pieces cracking off once in awhile... We're hoping to take OT there next week.
