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!

But I haven't gone and now it's gonna get dark. Guess it has to be next weekend, or make do.

Aw...

Homer just didn't know *what* we were tryin' to do to him. But that one of Gidget came out pretty good!

Homer's OK - the antihistamines make him a little drowsy, so we figure, we'll just knock him out till he's healed :~)

It'd be interesting to attempt that with Cisco.

Interesting and futile.

That second one is a great picture of Gidget! Got one of Homer in the Red hat and his Christmas t-shirt?

Oh, I thought y'all were starting the nursing home interviews.

That's coming soon. This is a more immediate need.

The family's got all the sick people they can handle!

We got more'n our fair share.

BTW, can you email me some doggy tranquilizers. Sam used to ignore fireworks. Not so much anymore. 'Course he's gettin' old and grumpy.

If you want to make some doggie downer deal, you're going to have to have your dog whisper to my dog in a dark alley :~)

Glad to hear that, and it's not actually a bad way to heal up.

Hey all!

Sneakin'...

Steve finished patching that hugh hole in the back of the Bug...it looks FANTASTIC! We're drawing closer and closer to the big event...removing the old heater channel and putting in the new.

We'll be having a New Years Eve party out there this evening and I'll post pictures of not only the fixed hole in the blog...but the party too! I've got it all set up...champagne flutes and all.

'Course it'll be just us...unless some of you wanna swing by...

Happy New Year, Hobbit Hole Dwellers!!!!
