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!

I was getting the boys ready for bed last night, straightening their bed, putting away books, light sabers...it was late. Joshua wanted a drink of water and when he came back, he had a scandalous look on his face. I said "What??" and he said:

"Dad's in there watching South Pole again."

Freedom toast, then.

It was yummmy. The sourdough really picks up the cinnamon-n-nutmeg flavors.

Well, I'll probably be able to say the same in a month, but we still haven't had enough rain here.

Morning.

Mmmmm.....rain. We could use some of the stuff. I guess it's a good thing I didn't plant that rain garden. Wonder if herhonor the mayor has plans for drought gardens.

I'm still confused by the WA advertising campaign. "We only see the sun two or three days a year - honest!"

No rain for six months?!?

Morning!

Beautiful sunny day here in Iowa. We're planning an expedition. Boating on the river. "Simply messing about in boats" and all that.

Back from our walk, all's quiet in theshire. Noticed some highscrewl kids begging at a street corner. I guess it's official begging since they are wearing their letter jackets and all have yellow buckets. The adult was on his cell phone, probably trying to find a better corner.

You are sure right, herhonor didn't pick a good year to try the tenthousand raingarden plans. Maybe Corin's shire should try it,seems they're getting all the rain.

Brewed another pot of coffee, punkin spice. hmmmm. Later to a bigbox place for bulbs, we'll see if we need a jackhammer to get them in the ground. Actually LSA watered yesterday so we have a better chance of getting planted today.

I bought some popcorn from some Boy Scouts who were raising $$ to go to Philmont. A much more worth cause than buying skirts and pom poms for the cheerleaders.
