The Hobbit Hole XXXIII - And the brook that leaps from hill to plain...

Posted on 03/08/2007 2:40:27 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

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!

*sigh*

Seems that way. Every Saturday it rains. *Every* Saturday. And this week I won’t be around to do it tomorrow, even if it *does* clear up.

I guess I’m gonna go out for a bit and get groceries and all instead. If it clears up at all, maybe I can at least get plants and do that, even if it’s too wet to mow.

I got the “kitty corner” cleaned. I really need to refurbish that bench.

Are those pictures from this morning? They’re predicting snow here this evening. Maybe it’s coming up from your neck of the woods. We’re fixing to do some more burning.

Yep. I took those before I went to choir rehearsal this a.m. It’s mostly melted now. But it’s still cold.

I won’t make the global warming joke, because I bet it’s already been done. Looks pretty on the Azaleas though :~)

Mmmm...truck stop breakfast...

I bought some pansies at Fred Meyer, so I could plant ‘em if the dripping slows a bit. Except that I forgot to get potting soil. Oops.

So I guess I’m eating lunch and going back out. But I wanted to look at bird feeders anyhow.

I got Cisco a HUGE nylon bone, which makes him very happy. And I got dark chocolate, which makes me happy.

Yeah, except Tam.

I got a brush glove thing, which Halvah *loves*, but Tam detests. And I’m not playing fetch as quickly as he’d like. I’m so mean...

Truly a classic movie, it has stood the test of time well. I remember seeing it on the bigscreen with my folks when I was a young ‘un. I was truly impressed.

What are you going to believe? Your own eyes, or the guy who flunked law school, divinity school, and firearms safety class?
