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! |

LOL!
And don't forget all of the lovely Mexican food and its infamous gastrointestinal havoc-wreaking capabilities.

Weren't you supposed to camp out in the yard?
See, I think the key to getting a decent room and bed at a moot is to bring your spouse along. I think we give better accomodation to couples :-)

Yep, I came prepared to camp. But was too darn cold. Still, I bet the ground was softer than the tile.

Absolutely not, my stalwart dwarf companion, the 'scouring' was.
To: Corin Stormhands
Hee, the best part of Entmoot was some of us frozen Northerners getting so carried away that we ended up swimming in the ocean. I recall the natives looking at us like we were nuts. It was fun until we saw the jellyfish.

Well... it really needs the sound, so maybe it's not gonna be good in the office anyway. It's safe, it just needs to be loud.

Well, I'm going dark now. No more posts from me until at least Sunday unless I pick up a wireless signal somewhere and I doubt that.

Bah! Yeah RC blocks it too. It is funny some of the stuff they block.
To: All
No news yet... heh.
I still have a bunch of stuff to do around the house to get ready, dishes, laundry, some arraigning, mow the yard, make some room in the garage, other stuff I am forgetting. I sure am glad I paid a cleaning service to come in and do a number on the place back on Wednesday.
First time the future in-laws will have seen the place... so no, I am not nervious at all. Not even a little bit...
To: TalonDJ
Nah, that was not really an update, it was just disguised spam.
