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!

I'm still here, Sam, at least until August. We'll only be moving slightly west of where we are, though quite a bit further south. It's considered the SouthEAST, though. ;o)

But of course. He barely slept a wink, so when I called him he was already up. :-)

He's at the airport now - boarding in a half hour.

I'm a wreck!

At least you don't have to go to the dentist. :~)

Truth be told, I've never been nervous about seeing the dentist.

Not exactly excited about it, but never nervous.

Although, I do expect the next 24 hours to feel like I'm having teeth pulled. So I decided to leave myself plenty of stuff to do today so I don't stare at the flight tracker until I go blind. ;-)

Thanks, I needed that. :-)

Heh...I'm wondering how long it will take Ramius to recover from all of this. I may not get to see you guys until next week. *grin*

I started to say I don't know if this is real or photoshopped, but then I saw "Registered@aol.com" on the side. Still, I like it.

This weekend is a bit complicated because of the 4th of July.

We'll prolly come down to see you before you come up to see us, since I wouldn't feel comfortable with you leaving the critters alone for the next week or so. :-/

We're planning to do the Fourth at the beach house, so maybe we'll either stop by on the way there or on the way back.

Do you need more Pilon? I have about 6 bags of it at home already, so I can bring some to you if you like.

I love Registered's work - it's always a hoot.

This is another one of his more delightful creations. ;-)
