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!

Slept like a coma patient.

Woke up like a mugging victim though. Did anybody get the number of the truck that ran over me?

Feeling better now. Got some coffee. Moving around better. :-)

I told Steve that this is what I wanted to do...

1. Find our bit of land out in the country.

2. Put a well, electricity, a septic system and a concrete slab out on it.

3. Move out of this house, put everything in storage, buy a used RV.

4. Park the RV out on the slab and hook it up to the electric, water, septic.

5. Build a small barn around or next to the RV on the slab, with a bathroom.

6. Move the stored items into the barn.

7. Start building the house. (Steve and I could do a lot ourselves.)

*pleading eyes towards Ramius*

Honey, look at that face!

Seriesly, I haven't priced either. But you'd probably be just as well off and do that with a mobile home instead of an RV.

We'll 'cept fer the fact that they're all tornado bait.

Heh heh...

Hey, somebody drew two GIGANTIC boobs on the street in front of the house...with some sort of oily substance, like mayo or something...don't know. Anyway, when it dried it turned black...so we had these two hugh black boobs out in front of the house...kinda looked like this

OO

So Steve went out and scrubbed and scrubbed. Got all the black off. Now the street looks like this:

OO

"boobs on 2J street" fit nicely in the keywords. :-)

Heh heh...that's a nice setup!

;-)

I want to have the RV to run around in afterward! Or I could sell it. Used mobiles don't sell very well...too hard to move.

But the root cellar is a good idea...

Heh heh...

They also picked up a big piece of our old pear tree that fell down and trashed a political sign we had up in the yard, knocked over our trash can and pulled up a plant.
