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!

Trini makes curry all the time. It's marvelous stuff.

But you're right about the smell. Ain't no mistakin' when someone is cooking curry or has cooked it in the last 24 hours. *grin*

No worries! We can stay inside and clean up ecurbh's TPS reports. :-D

I knew the weather was gonna be lousy, chica. This is strictly a "hang out with friends and decompress" trip. No structured entertainment necessary.

Oh! I meant to ask if you guys have "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"? Do ya?

I got it for Secret Santa, but I already have it. So I was going to bring it up for you if you don't have it yet.

You mean you're not going to Mt. St. Helen's?

I don't know what we're going to do...

Mt. St. Helens would be snowed in. I doubt the roads are open to get up there. I did think it'd be fun to go up to the pass and play in snow, it's not every day a Florida gal gets to play in snow... but I don't know what Ruthy wants to do.

The volcano requires a fairly nice day to even see it.

If anything, I think maybe a trip out to Ocean Shores might be in order. That's something you can do even on a pretty nasty day and the experience is pretty much always the same. :-)

Here is what you are most likely to see from Johnston Ridge this time of year... if you can even get there.
