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! |

it just gets so terribly dry here. They seem to go for the maters more for the moisture than anything.Hmmmm.....maybe I should blast the squirrels with the garden hose this summer...

Would be entertaining, if nothing else. Heh!

Daughter and I took Jeanne up to Boca to visit her best friends, both mothers, nice time was had by all.
The Ren fairs are fun, though I think they are full of anachronisms, not that it matters!
Morning, everyone.

Thank you!
I was supposed to get a hummingbird feeder, but they ran out of the one I wanted. So I got a bunch of garden transplants.
It was a fun day. Nice and peaceful.

Jeanne got a new trash can...seems very strange, but it's what she wanted and she is thrilled. No accounting for the female mind, I guess. 'Course there were some long stemmed red roses, too ;-)

Gonna make collards tonight...
Didn't you mention your mom making collards before?
I found an interesting article here and intend to follow this recipe.
Gotta get some ham hocks...I've had salt pork, but never actual hocks before.

I'm building a compost containment area out of the old white plastic lattice we used to use on the bottom of the chicken coop.

Today is starting to make sense. There was a full moon this weekend.
On top of everything else, I just got a text message from Jr. asking if I could call and get him out of school today because the "day has been wasted." The message came at 1:03 p.m. He gets out at 1:45...
I sent a message back that just said "no."
After all, he hasn't worried about wasting time for the last 11 years, what's another day?
