The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And there are many paths to tread

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!

Very cute and intimidating looking. I wonder if the scope detaches easily, or re attaches without having to sight in all over again?

;-)

Good morning everyone.

Hi, OT!
I guess it's another month until spring, though January was fairly mild in VA. Some very cold nights, though. What day does that groundhog come out?

Not quite but almost.... I did notice last night that it is starting to stay light a little later.

Good morning. We're all sick. All except Steve, thankfully. He took care of all three of us all weekend. I imagine he's glad to get back to work! Heh heh!

Thanks for that Yahoo info. I remember doing something like that a while ago when someone mentioned this on my homeschool group, but I'll check it again.
