The Hobbit Hole XXXI - Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

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!

It's cold and so the deer should be out on the food plots...especially at sunset. He's hunting from the ground...for deer, not pig. :-) He hasn't seen any pigs here.

It is FINALLY starting to snow. It hasn't snowed at all...just frozen "wintery mix". Now I am definitely seeing some pretty large flakes coming down.

Hugh soft soundless flakes are coming down now!! Joshua's out in it. It's beautiful and that awful sleet sound has stopped.

So pretty now!

It's coming down thick now! Drifts are accumulating on the recliner in my neighbor's front yard.

Did you make it home safely? OB didn't leave 'til 3:30, though he could have left any time after 2:00 :-(

I was just wondering too...haven't heard from her in a while, since it started looking bad on her live cam.

Steve left about 40 minutes ago...usually takes him about 25 minutes to get home...I imagine he's taking his time.

It started snowing where she is sooner than here in LS. We've probably only got an inch here but the road conditions are lousy all over the metro area.

Well, the good news is she's okay...

I'm in a meetin' this afternoon and get an email from the missus. Starts out "your mother is okay but..."

She was on her way here to see the Christmas show then go on down to Virginia Beach to visit her sister. Coming down the Interestate on the other side of Roanoke she was side-swiped by a tractor trailer.

She's okay, but understandably a bit shaken up. The car is pretty banged up.

Needless to say, she's not coming. At least not this weekend.

~sigh~

Jeepers, that's a big rig to get in a tangle with. Very glad she's OK.

I know. I HATE I-81 and avoid it as much as possible. But there's about a 20 mile stretch that you ~have~ to take between here and there. Well, you don't ~have~ to, but the other way would add about an hour to the trip.

It's showtime...see y'all later.
