The Hobbit Hole XXX - Then world behind and home ahead...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/28/2006 10:14:11 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Then world behind and home ahead

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!

Ah, oh, and den along came Jones
Tall thin Jones
Slow walking Jones, slow talking Jones
Along came long, lean, lanky Jones.

Morning, back from the dogpark; it's amazing how nice a 30 plus degrees temperature drop feels. Nice breeze as well.

They've revised the forecast down cooler, so there's that :~)

Up having coffee now and we'll go feed horses in a bit, they need two hours after breakfast, so we'll not leave before 9, maybe aim for 10?

No, just on another forum.

In a new twist, I'm arguing politics on a Christian website...

Whoa, that is new. Are you allowed to do that?

I had a whole bunch of wedding-related dreams where my sisters were showing up in the wrong dresses, my brother ran off with the rings, the organist played the wrong thing.... ugh. I want this to be done with already.

Apparently. It's a difficult site to maneuver tho.

And obviously, since you didn't dream of me, you must be looking forward to my wedding "attire."

Probably my brain does not want to commit seppuku so it was avoiding the entire subject of you.

Good morning. :-D

Sorry we've been kinda scarce, but we've been trying to finish Season One of 24. 8 more hours to go.

We're headed up see to visit Ramius' cousin in Bothell today, with a side trip first to Snoqualmie Falls. The girls and I have never seen a ~real~ waterfall before, so we're excited about that.

Camera's charged and ready to go.

Ruh-roh...

I'm finally getting around to making coffee, and I dropped a few beans as I was pouring them into the grinder.

Cisco ran over and ate them. I'm thinking this is a Very Bad Thing...
