The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!
Posted on 07/12/2005 8:11:36 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Let them go! Let them go!
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... I'm going up to Tacoma this morning to find out for my self what's going on with Ramius and how he's doing, then I'll be back!
We could use for these clouds to lift if we want to see Mt. St. Helens this week!
To: HairOfTheDog
Right now it's cloudy in the direction of Mt Hood. Dunno about Mt Adam...window faces the wrong way.

OK - ecurbh is going to stay here, so if you get done early or I am delayed, he'll be here waiting for you and can offer assistance if you get lost or have trouble on the way or anything!
I fully expect to be back in plenty of time, hopefully, they're releasing him today and we'll just be waiting for that.
To: ExGeeEye
Congratulations!
I knew I should have spammed for it before going to bed last night...

Well, that's ~hopefully~. They're hoping to get it under control, if they don't, it means they haven't got it yet.
To: HairOfTheDog
*fingers crossed*
Let's see if he can get home and relax instead of being cooped up at the hospital.

We're done. Took about an hour all told.
Slightly graphic picture, don't click if your overly sensitive.
Finished product:
The smaller one's finish weight was 3 lbs 9 oz and the larger one was 4 lbs 11 oz. They're cooling in the fridge.

They have to sit for awhile before cooking, right? Why is that?
