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!

They're doing that with "Narnia" too... game based on the movie coming out before the movie itself. It's the new way to do things, I guess.

*narrows eyes at you*

OK then. That calls for a viewing of both "Beaches" and "Fried Green Tomatoes" during my next visit.

Evening G'nad - good shooting, that should take care of some of the excess freezer capacity.

*laughing*

Sorry. My mom's cousin is here and I got caught up in one of his prison stories (when Castro jailed him in Cuba).

And yes Ramius, Braveheart will be fine. Right after we watch g'nad's copy of "Steel Magnolias". :-)

Just FYI, none of those movies are on the Thanksgiving list.Maybe I'm not a normal woman but, ugh, chick flicks are painful.

You're perfectly normal, Jen. Most chick flicks are painful.

But they're terrific when you need a good cry.
