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!

It DID go way too fast! I'm glad the Sean Astin character turned out better than I anticipated.

Nope. May do that tomorrow.

They're quoting only $100 over invoice. But the closest match in the region to what I want-- has some stuff on it I don't want. Namely the rear DVD player and a couple other doodads. it's a spendy extra that I don't need, and it's not readily removable without leaving damage.

Problem is... The DVD seems to be a really popular option, so they're putting them in almost all the trucks. To get one without it, but still with the main stuff I want I'd have to order it (6+ weeks).

This one is the light khaki, and it's nice... maybe as good as the silver... but I really liked the silver. The dark khaki is really nice, but there aren't any around anywhere close.

Ack... agony.

Agony's right. You used to be rather impulsive...

You know who you're becoming like? :~D

I don't think they spied any mice. I don't know if they know they're supposed to. I could try flash cards. ;~D

But if they heard something skittering around, wouldn't they want to find out what it was?

Yep, that's what we figure. All the back-breaking stuff is done. Now for the fun part!

I got my garage door fixed...it works better now than it ever did. Cost $235.00. Not too bad and worth it to know our cars are in the garage now.
