The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

Argh, that is a shame. Have patience, if you can... the Lord's timing is better. Or at least it's more accurate :-)

Don't worry, 2J. There will be more catastrophes for which they will need help. You have plenty of time. Your boys need you more right now, and the more extended trips can wait for a few years.

I have WAY more respect for Rosa Parks than for all of the so called "black leaders" combined. She didn't stand up and yell and scream for equality, she was just a tired woman who wanted to sit down, and in doing so, pointed up the stupidity of segregation and Jim Crow laws.

Evenin' folkses... [sip]

Rutheee update: All is well and she's in good spirits, all things considered. Still no power, phone... and there's some question about the water, so she's shuttling back and forth over to grandmas house. The girls are being good.

Power is expected to be out until maybe the weekend. Don't know about phone. Charging the cell phone in the car.

Why does New Line have Aragorn wearing an evening gown?

I like that pouty, runway look, myself.

Pretty good day at work, and now I'm making a green chili sorta dinner thing. My supervisor brought in a bunch of various peppers, and I'm simmering the ones I took with pork and onions and chicken broth and spices.

Smells good, in any case.

Need eyes checked. For a minute, I thought you said "perennial dwelling hobbits."

But Legolas wouldn't be caught dead in polyester.

WE'RE elves...we're elves in tights
We roam around the forest looking for fights

We bit the bullet and installed DSL yesterday!! Haven't gotten around to setting up sub-accounts yet, and the program has combined our settings, OB can get into all his forums, i.e, Tradgang, but FR is on my account. Guess we'll figure that in the next day or two....
