The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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!

TsssssT! [whack]

He's our porch frog! We always have at least one, sometimes a pair, of frogs who live on the porch. The spend the day on the top of the post, and they feast on the bugs that come to the porch light at night.

Heh...When I first woke up this morning, I staggered out into the hallway and spotted a big ol' lizard just sitting there.

*shudder*

I herded him towards the garage and managed to get the door open so he could get out of the house.

But I didn't smash 'em. That's the penalty for a 2nd offense. :-)

Cute!

Hope the monsters don't try anything with him...though I guess he's probably safe at the top of the post!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... 12 ga breaching rounds ...

Here you go, $7 per box, military surplus. I guess Iraq didn't have enough doors.

Hmmm... noticed the contract date: 1995. What did Clinton know, and when did she know it?
