The Hobbit Hole XXXII - Sweet is the sound of falling rain
The Freeper Hobbit Hole Blog ^ | December 1, 2006

Posted on 12/01/2006 12:55:15 PM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Try closing the browser and reopening it, and see if that helps.

Oops! Missed the last part of the chat. Was helping Joseph get the cookies in and out of the oven. They're yummy!

Considerations for your survival kit:

Green for ground use, orange-and-nickel-plate for salt water.

How did the chat go?

My last post last night was literally on the way to bed. I'm about to walk out the door now.

Sounds like fun! I doubt I'll be able to stop in but who knows. It's been a while since I've watched those movies. Might have to do it again soon.

Actually, during the boring bits, I was up trying to get Twitter Cat to come inside.

Dang, we ~almost~ got to use the generator again. Power went out for about an hour this morning. Sat around for a bit to see if it would come back quickly, then decided to go ahead start the generator. Got it warmed up, and were moments away from starting to plug things in, when the power came back on.

You OK over there? We hadn't seen any signs of life from your place... we were about to head over and see if you had charged up your light and knew where it was when the power came back on.

I slept through most of the outage. Got up for a minute and realized the power was out and it was already cold, so I went back to bed for awhile. ;-)
