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!

I hadn't posted any monster pics in the last day or so, so I thought I'd post the latest :~D Both kittens are thriving, but Pippin, the black one is the social one. She enjoys attention from me and has taken to following me around today, purring when I pick her up. Tweek, the cream colored one, doesn't like to be held and we have to chase and pry her out from under things to catch her. She enjoys playing with Pippin though, mostly. Pippin plays rough!

It just seems that I keep thinking of things to do that'll tick off the Bad Guy.

Maybe I should make him a dimocrat too!

Who, the Bad Guy? What's his ultimate aim, anyway? Just your standard world domination?

She's hard to get good pictures of because she runs and hides more than she plays when I come around with the camera. I'm tryin' :~D

Poor little kitty! She's still traumatized.

She's definately not as easy going and unabashedly friendly as Pippin. She's timid and scared to be caught, but she seems really happy when she's playing with Pip.

They're nappin' now. When they're tired, they go put themselves to bed back in the crate, which is very very cute. :~D

~blink~ ~blink~ hey - enough with the flash!

Kitty number two has joined the write-in. I now have a purring fuzball nestled against each hip. *happy*

Well, you know, you can solve that "no baby anythings" problem pretty easily...
