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, Well 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! |

My cousin finally got round to burning a disk of the pix he took on our FL truip in March (yes, I'm still waiting on the fargin' wedding pix from 12/31). Found this (and traded quality for size):

And so it begins...the official waitin' up fer the youngun'. I figger I've got plenty of time, so I put in themovies. FOTR just started. We'll see how long it takes me to fall asleep. I'll never see Helms Deep.
Buildin's lookin' good g'nad.
Hair/Ruthy - I didn't go to my prom either. Long story that I still regret. Not so much missin' the prom. But the reason. I'll share it someday over adult entertainment beverages...or Pilon. ;-)
