The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

I caught up again on the posts before I leave for the day and I just had to say that the poem you just posted brought tears rolling down my cheeks. What a beautiful thing it is!

I must be heading out soon, but I will from now on picture these 7 souls piloting with God.

Bosque County mid '70's. something large, ape-like, hairy, stunk to high heaven, followed up and down the north fork, kind of went up some of the creeks from time to time.

Ok g'nad, did you ever go to Texas in the mid '70's? ;^)

Boss came down hall to see why I was laughing. This is more than ROFLOL

Texas has always been an interesting place to live. I just seldom mention some of those things that amused me over the years.

Thank you! I forgot to add...the gentleman who wrote it was my Dad's roommate AT TEXAS A&M...both good Aggies.

I am trying to spread it around...

y'all take care...there *is* a lot to keep up with isnt there??? Sometimes I get impatient waiting for someone to notice me, but Hobbit Holers are the best people in the world...very kind and caring! Whenever I see one of you respond to my posts, I feel good for the rest of the day.

God Bless!!!

Sorry I pinged you guys there.

It was very moving! Have you considered posting it to the Columbia Poetry Corner, or to the Thread of Silence?

The DVD player worked with the decoder.

Oh, well... looks like Rose and I might have been on the completely wrong track to getting it fixed. LOL... am glad you got it to work, in any case!
