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!

We've got tablecloths, etc. covered. And for the bistro tables I've downloaded images from the 70s that I'm going to copy on 70-ish color paper. Thing like movie logos, headlines, etc. But, we need to do something for the center of the table.

Well, I ~could~, but I can't find 15 before tomorrow night and that blows the budget...just a bit.

We do have one for the serving tables.

So did Rosie make it to the airport OK?

I didn't get any calls for rescue, so I'm going to assume she did. I don't know the details of her flight to check, but she's probably in the air now. It's a gorgeous day, hope she got a window.

Or perhaps a seat next to a nice young doctor, from a good Catholic family...

You know, part of me keeps thinking "why didn't they just drive."

Then I think "silly Easterner..."

Lots of bad weather between here and CA... Bad time to plan a trip through the Sisques. Flying's better, get there in two hours.

Oh... OT already thought of that.

If finding the real thing is out of scope... find a color picture, copy and fold into standing paper cutouts.

Steve's got a job interview. In Enid. A two-hour drive. It's Monday...he has Monday off for MLK day.

We're considering going with him if the weather isn't too bad.

If it *is* bad, they agreed to reschedule.

Oh, Suzi...I don't want to leave Oklahoma.

If he could find something here in Oklahoma, I would sure be happy.
