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!

Evening OT, LSA got a second coat of paint in the bathroom, looking pretty good, we think it will work. The left over tile will work, once I get the back board replaced. Held up darn well over the years, if I may say so.

Spent three days in the field, office work today. Pretty nice weather this week. Ticks are out and they're waiting for those who venture forth. Four day week coming up, yesss.

Oh, ok. That makes sense. Indecipherable would be bad.

Mostly for me... but then again I am guessing confused husbands are not much fun.

Evening 2Jedismom; I use my flat mill file on the blade. I would recommend using a vise to hold it steady and wear leather gloves, the file can slip and nasty cut from the blade can result. This I know first hand, so to speak.

I have a file guard that is handy when making dull things sharp again. It's just a piece of leather on the shank of the file. Still, simple as it is, it's very handy to help keep fingers intact.

I wouldn't think so. A man who knows what he's doing is much more fun. And useful.
