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!

Crap. Warmed Over. You know the drill.

Not sick, per se, but just out of sync. Apparently went to bed with the contacts in. Can't find 'em so they must've come out whilst I was asleep. But can't see none too good either.

Off to Fangorn...

Can't believe it. We've got live groundhog coverage.

He's reading the proclamation.

Ewww....he kissed a groundhog!

He saw his shadow.

Heh, our local radio morning guy said that if we have to have six more weeks of winter that are like the last week, he'll gladly take it. We've had days in the 40's and nights in the high 20's. Not bad at all! Beats the heck out of the 0 degree nights early in December!

That was a pretty exciting week for all involved :~D

It's fun to go on a trip, but nobody, but nobody, travels from Florida to Washington for a vacation in February... I just hope it dries out here enough to get out of the house a little :~\

Otherwise, we'll be watching a lot of movies, which is I guess what she wants to do anyway. :~D
