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!

Email I got:

Thank you for contacting PSO. We do have a large outage in the Bixby/South East Tulsa area. We have a major power line that has burned with some possible damage to the substation that services your neighborhood. At this time we do not have an estimated restoral time. We do have crews working on the problem. Hopefully, we will have the power restored soon.

Very windy!

It's even been on the radio news, Steve says.

Was there a big fire that you know of near one of those major power lines, or just a line that burned up?

I have no idea.

Once I found out the power wasn't coming on right away, we left for the library.

I've already got the cheese sandwich.

The badger is a bit problematic...oooh, how about...

"Mother, don't badger me about the details..."

Does that count?

What happened here is an interesting social phenomenon

That's what SirKit says. He's fascinated by FR in general and the Hobbit Hole in particular.

You know, maybe I'll just write you in...

She could be a distant cousin who flies her own plane in from the great Northwest.

I'm having costume ~issues~ this morning. I need something like a striped sweater vest. Fairly obnoxious. But all I can find so far are solid colors.

Don't suppose any of you wimmin knit?

Better yet, I'll make her a sister. That'll really pi$$ off the matriarch...

I thought I might get to be one of the crazy girlfriends that came to the funeral and did something inappropriate...

Maybe I sit in the back and eat a cheeze sandwich... Maybe I stand up and say "I'll miss him.... he was a fly in the butt-balm, but he was ~our~ fly, and it was ~our~ butt balm."

Not me...

I'm logging off. I feel uncomfortable with Matthew in that study room by himself. He may be in the sixth grade but he looks so little (and would actually be in 4th grade if he was in PS.)

So I'll check in when he's done.
