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!

Yeah, it's nippy. But if you bundle up... though I'd rather be by a nice warm fire but I haven't got one of those here. Unless I started one in the living room. Hehehehe. I think that would be a bad idea.

I sent the edible kind to Hair, OT and Rosie.

Mmm...yeah, and they were really, really good!

My brothers were very impressed with my connections with regards to both kinds of cookies. ;-)

Hey! I've heard that I'm really good at attempting to start fires in folks' living rooms.

Just ask the Wedding Mooters! :-D

Uh... well... I don't want you to start a fire in mine if it's all the same to you.

Maybe about 10 minutes longer. Nothing major.

Slow night. I tried to write a bit, but I'm just not inspired. :-P

I just broke 13k, which is pathetic by NaNo standards at this late date, but much further than I thought I'd ever get.

At this point I'm just writing to enjoy it for myself, but I'll definitely go for the big Thanksgiving weekend rush and try to knock it out in a day. :-)

I think I'll go to bed early.

But I see something ahead...
