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!

Haven't had to drive in any of the stuff yet. I came down with a pretty good bug early yesterday morning, and it's hung on today. Meanwhile my car is safely parked under increasing levels of Disaster Powder.

I'll see about it tomorrow.

Not a problem ... in fact, I'm glad to do it! LCS has been on my mind lately.

If he's going to be there a month, it might be neat to send a small thing every few days ... one of the bad things about being in the hospital or nursing home is the sameness of the days, you know? A little thing every few days would be something to look forward to ...

The form should be up tonight.

the horses seem to want to just hang out till this one passes :~)

Can't say as I blame them. I went out and did several errands this afternoon so I wouldn't have to get out in the wicked freezing weather tomorrow!

Oh man!! It's like a pinball machine!! They just go from side to side.

Having been behind the wheel of a car that has begun a slide, I can identify with those drivers. You're just praying that either you stop, or at least you don't hurt anyone when you can't!

Oh, I remember her! She was on some other soap many years ago, I think. I've never watched "The Bold and the Beautiful", so I didn't know her from there.

Cabela's and FREE AMMO.. Don't get much better than that. Squirrels and misc varmints and nefarious critters beware - OT's BACK.

Sheltering in Place sounds like a prudent course of action. You and Bear take care down there..

My buddy down there emailed me from his apartment complex business office, he was wondering bout Texas weather, he just moved from Louisiana.

In other news, the ridge is still 'off-line'.

I guess this is one time that it was GOOD that you were sick! I hate driving in that kind of mess.

Heh...

I want to watch the Seattle one. My brothers were there, remember? Didn't really get to do much, but if they show any shots of folks in line, I might spot them. Could be fun.
