Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!
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! |

Hi there! I was wondering if you'd landed in Vegas. I bet the climate was a shock after WA!

We run, we trip, we sometimes get tripped, and we pick ourselves up and dust off and put some ointment on it.

To: SuziQ
Yeah it is definitely different. Sunny every day, ya gotta be able to take a lot of sun!
Actually, I got the job here BEFORE we moved (highly recommended). It's been a wild and sometimes terrifying transition - it's a young town and there's lots of amped up drivers on the road (75 in a 35 zone is going very slow). And it's gotten huge, so it's a bit like negotiating L.A.
But it's an adventure...and you know about Frodo and Sam and adventures...
To: All
Just got home. Surprise SmoochMoot.
I was supposed to babysit some of the kids you've seen in my pictures. Their mother asked me to go wake the littlest one from his nap.
He wasn't there. His big (8) sister was on his bed...and WK was hiding behind the door!
Vey hugh surprise. I was planning to drive down to Kalamazoo tomorrow to pick her up, and she came a day early.
Very well done. I've surprised her twice, and I had it coming.
((Ruthy))
((Ramius))
If it's supposed to work out, it will.

Chance is pretty fast with a tongue. And he's discovered he likes peeing on palm trees...he's less fond of trying it with barrell cactus and ocotillo though.

Hello, I'm back in the cyber-world again.
To: Scott from the Left Coast
Been there, done that. ;~)

AND you were STILL able to get married. Amazing!
To: ExGeeEye
Hullo :~) Those surprises are good. I hope you had on clean underwear :~)
To: All
Well, on that note, I'm going to bed. Good night everyone.
To: HairOfTheDog
Hmmm, guess I'm going to bed too.

Are you up? Can you come over? Wanted to see if ~maybe~ if we bribed you with espresso you might throw some food at the horses tonight and tomorrow morning so we can go to the beach house for the night. :~) ~smiles sweetly~
To: HairOfTheDog
Sure...I'll be over in a sec...
To: HairOfTheDog; RosieCotton; osagebowman
'Morning, all!
Well...we forgot to bring the camera and batteries. Oh well. They didn't allow cameras in the theater anyway. You didn't really want another picture of me stuffing my face at the restaurant, did you? :)
Fish and chips were good, but I think Tides was better. I guess Tides is closer to the source. Had a Guinness....mmmmmm....Guinness.
We did a poor job of shopping at the concert. By the time we went to visit "the table" all the books were gone and they had some CD's left. Figured I could get the CD's online.
The book had sheet music in it.
