The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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!

Gotta wonder what exactly the ugly woman is gonna do to 'em...

You're assuming it was written by a man :~D

The same thing ugly women always do.

Offer sound, sensitive, timely advice.

Even though I hate being away from my sweetie, I look forward to travel for the very reason you describe - it gets me out of cubicle land.

I'm technically "on call" all the time. I've been called in once in the year I've worked this job.

Mmm... Popeyes... wants it, precious...

They're gonna name her "Ophelia" and that'll probably pi$$ her off...

I wonder of Sheila Jackson Lee is still angry that they don't use "black-sounding" names to storms.... I remember she had her knickers in a twist about that a couple years ago.

And she might just be the one to pick up the claw hammer, in a pinch. ;~D

There are no ugly wimmin in the Hobbit Hole, so we'll take your word for it ;-)

I think all the sites are within the county...and I believe we only support two of 'em, one being the one just down the road.

If it didn't involve driving in *town*, I wouldn't mind so much. ;-) I guess it's good practice, though.

Sound, sensitive, timely, and armed with a claw hammer.

Could be a Little House on the Prairie episode....:>)

We could always ask Kanye West to name the storms...

As one who very rarely visits the Hobbit Hole, I would be insane to characterize the wimmin in the Hobbit Hole as any less beautiful than lovely Rosie Cotton herself....

Where all wimmin are beautiful

All beer is heady...

And beauty & beer blend to complement one another....

Heh...I think there's a thread around her somewhere where I posted a picture of Isabel Sanford.

Not exactly...I posted a "Hurricane Bush" thread that got shoved over into "General Chat."

Since I was in the neighborhood, I thought I'd visit, and saw that great pic about the guy with the shotgun, ugly woman, and claw hammer.

I have discovered that if one comments over here that one cannot easily extricate oneself.

And I find myself being polite......must not be the RF. :>)
