The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

Posted on 05/03/2008 8:48:06 AM PDT 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!

Sister says one of the cat shelters around here places feral cats for people with barns. :)

Dude, you need include a coffee mug in the group, preferably at least 12 oz. ;o)

Hey, glad to hear it’s going pretty well! I guess I should have come over already, huh? :-\ Kind of late to dump stuff on you...maybe I’ll just do the slower route on Craigslist.

I’m still planning to go to that bluegrass festival for a bit, but it’s hard to get motivated when it’s cold, I’m also wondering if I should leave Cisco indoors when I go so he doesn’t make a nuisance of himself, hollering at garage sale goers. At least this festival is close — just down past the hardware store, practically — so I can run back and check on him and grab dinner at home (I are a cheapskate) if I do leave him in.

Cisco’s not really a problem if he’s out...

Bring stuff over if you want!

OK, I’m gonna eat lunch real quick, bring a couple of things over, and then head to the festival for awhile.

Get to humiliate myself in public agin. I do love playing music with others! ;-) For some reason.

Evening, Hope the garage sale is going as planned. I thought Ramius mentioned he reloaded .38/.357, guess that was a while ago. Got some powder and primers set aside for me at the local gunshop. He’s selling out and closing up the shop. There isn’t much hope for the family gunshop these days. Soon it’s going to be WallyWorld and the big box stores.

Just finished dinner, home-made Tomato soup with our own tomatoes. MMMM.good.

Nice drizzle, guess the lawn will wait.

OB is hiding his light under a bushel! Actually, HE made the tomato soup, from chopping the tomatoes to using the sieve, with minimal assistance from me. It was excellent, and I really appreciated his effort.

We had a good garage sale day! Sold a lot of stuff, still have a lot left that I hope goes tomorrow, but we made about $400 and change. :~)
