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!
Aw...I'm sorry I missed meeting him!
I actually wouldn't mind another dog someday. But I'd prefer a retriever to that big ol' malamute that showed up awhile back.. Retrievers, I understand. ;-)
If'n you were around the Hole more often, you'd have known where I was...mentioned yesterday I was headed up to see the niece. Oh, and my brother and sister-in-law.
Back now. Pretty quiet day, really. But it was nice to see everyone agin.
Did the Golden come from just up the road, or had he gotten out when they were visiting the store or something?
He'd escaped... he lives down the gravel road across from 93rd.
Ah...where that retired vet lives?
Doh! :~)
Not sure which place exactly... if he escapes again, we may find out. :~\
;-)
Heh...just realizing...last year about this time, we were just starting to scrub mouse poo out of cabinets, and assorted other fun activities.
I think I arrived in WA on about the 14th? Somewhere near then. Jacinta (niece) was only a few weeks old. Now she's walking a bit and starting to say a few words.
And I didn't have a job and didn't have any idea how I was going to make it here.
Been quite a year, it has.
***could use a couple of pints***
How's everything going, Corin?
Every night is pint night.
I'm hanging in there. Trying to get a blog post together between arguments.
;-)
I like it a lot!
Indeed it has!
Wow, that has been quite a year! I'd forgotten you left in February... but that's right... you were in FoCo just less than a year...
Palindrome
don't mine me. just checking the obituaries...
I've lost track - are you growing the beard back?
Oh, that's just Monday talking.
Not 'til she notices it's gone...
