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!

Neat - thanks for that link. I've got a fair bit of business travel coming up - trips are usually good for writing in the evenings and on the plane. I have a little paper notebook for that now. I like it because I don't have to turn it off and put it away during landing and take-off.

Yawn, Good Morning! We stayed up way too late last night watching "LOST"; they re-ran the episode pre-empted by the storm at 10:30 last night. OB and I are definitely not night-owls, but it was worth it, even though Gypsy's breakfast was delayed an hour.

Thank goodness the wind has finally died down, maybe we can take a walk today!

Good Morning All - beautiful sunny day, warming nicely and the wind, for a change, has moderated.

The VW bus story was a little far fetched ;~) I think next week's episode looks good. I think it's most interesting when they focus on the Dharma stuff.

Good morning! Jack tonight :~)

Well, that's true enough but it was sure good to see our old friends again. For a bit, I thought the vehicle might have been the van Hurley and his buddy from the chicken place drove around in.

After looking and finding the guests on Sunday talk shows to be boring... we've decided on TTT.

Been awhile since we've watched these. Going to try for a TTT, RoTK morning.

Gidget *loves* TTT, no? ;-)

I'm eating donuts and reading a book about the 1918 flu epidemic - two activities that don't always go well together. But it's a fascinating book all the same.
