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'm not all that confident in their promise either.

Hurray!

And thus ends your part in the saga of the Trailer People.

We'll see ;~D

The people in the 'main house' trailer aren't budging. He's gonna have to take them to court.

So you have two sets of deadbeats in that lot?

Are these the beer thieves?

You know, the eviction notices came right after the beer theft and just might be related.

Your life is a bit too interesting sometimes, did you know that?

This really isn't all that interesting :~D

But it is more scandalous than daily kitten pics.

Have I posted this Pippin yet?

Here's one I took of them watching Gidget maul a stuffed toy... I think they found it rather alarming :~D

Just as long as it was a little stuffed DOG rather than a little stuffed CAT!

I'll say, Hair! I'm glad those neighbors are leaving and taking your eyesore with them!

Hey...last night I made the jedis a pumpkin pie. Checked on it after a half hour...it was just slap runny! Smelled great, the crust looked nice but the pie was a runny as anything.

I forgot to put in the eggs!

Well, did that deter my jedis? Heck no, they just gobbled up that pie shell with pumkin sauce like it was the best thing they'd ever had! LOL!

I'm gonna make a real pie but I was kinda waitin' to see if we got ol' Zark.

Well, they ain't completely gone from next door yet, but they have got that camper out of here. :~D

Good grief it was extra super scary watching them try to get it on the truck, they didn't have the proper jacks for it, and that camper is really heavy.

They didn't get it completely on the truck yet, it's hanging off the back about two feet, but they drove it out of here to keep working on it ~over there~ so it's no longer our problem :~D

Needs new shocks...

That thing looks too big for a 1/2 ton pickup. Needs a 3/4. It's gonna be scary as hell going down the road.

So what's that excitement going on in your part of the world today? Someone shooting up a mall? I saw your thread...

Yah... pretty exciting for our part of the world. Somebody shooting up the mall. Not over yet. Now it appears to be standoff with a negotiator and such.

Here they are next door... pushing it the rest of the way into the bed, with another truck.

I tell ya, there's a right way to do things, and a wrong way to do things, and you know... much as we cringe, sometimes the wrong way works :~D

I might have suggested slowly accelerating to 35 MPH and then slamming on the brakes. Sort of a redneck download in reverse.

But then, it ain't my truck and it ain't my camper. So there you are.
