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!

~Waves at Ruthy~

At least my 3 hours of meetings are done for the day. Now I just gotta try and get this request for a bid finished up and sent today. And I haven't had lunch yet. Dunno if I will. :-\

[TalonDJ]

*wave*
Have fun! ;-D

[HairOfTheDog]

We will :~D Ruthy just made us some Cuban coffee.

If this is what Cubans really drink, I'm amazed they can live on such a small island :~o

[TalonDJ]

Could use some here about now.... zzzz

[osagebowman]

Whoo-hoo, Ruthy's arrived. Great Picture. We're all waving, even gypsygirl. OB & LSA

[osagebowman]

Evening!

Got daffodils, crocus, and daylilies coming up. The iris have been up all winter.

[osagebowman]

Evening, yup lots of stuff peeking up now. Won't be long now.

Been on a stream survey today and need to do it again tomorrow. Sigh, someone has to do it so might as well be my partner and me. :-) Indicating very big smile.

[RosieCotton]

All right!

Keep us posted!

[Overtaxed]

If it has to be done, it has to be done. :)

WooHoo! I get to be a Principle Investigator! Now all I have to do is figure out how to analyze these stoopid samples.

[Rose in RoseBear]

Cool! Principal Investigators get their names at the top of the research paper! Not to mention in last name/first name order!

[osagebowman]

Way Cool, an Investigator, and a principled one too. Excellent. Congrats.

[Overtaxed]

Hehehe....so it will all be my fault. :)

[Overtaxed]

Thanks!

It'll be something new and a step up.

Guess I'll have to dig up my Strunk & White....I'll have to write reports and stuff.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Take cover!

[ExGeeEye]

Will it be breezy?

[ExGeeEye]

A long time ago, when I was a wee lad, my house number was 3300.

[ExGeeEye]

That was where home was. My room was there.

[ExGeeEye]

My family, my cat, and my yard were there.

3300 Lois Drive, Anchorage, Alaska, was a little bit mine.

[ExGeeEye]

Can I have this too?
