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!

Vey strange! I'm hoping they showed more a little later in the morning. Clare DVR'd until noon, so somewhere in those 5 hrs I hope we got it.

How about going to the local school's music dept., local homeschool group, and music stores to see if you could put up fliers for private lessons...just a thought...they make good money here...at least $10.00 for half an hour and tax free.

It's an idea! Frankly, though...I don't feel that I'm good enough yet to teach someone else, especially considering how many truly great musicians there are in this town. I've really only been playing mando for a few years, and the average kid that has more time than me could surpass me in a matter of months. But someday, maybe!

*sigh* Honestly, I really want lessons myself! I've really not lived somewhere where I could take 'em, and I'd love to seriously study classical guitar, for one, with someone to tell me when I'm not holding my hands right or when my timing is off and all that. It's one of the reasons I was hoping to make a little more than just rent and expenses.

Oh, OK. *phew*

Same here. But I always catch up on e-mail and posts here first. Which is probably *not* the best way to go about it, but...

That's why I like soda. Just open a can and it's ready, no preparations to worry about.

Heh...yah, I had to explain the other day why I was buying a decaf coffee in the afternoon after having two full sized travel mugs full of the regular stuff earlier.

Because...I don't like it when it feels like my heart is trying to escape my chest. Definitely high in caffeine, coffee is.

Every day is my Friday right now. Or, alternatively, every day is my Monday.

*shudder*

And yes, I realize that makes me a lightweight compared to most coffee drinkers...
