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.

Yep, I'd better get going (after I finish coffee). I have to dig up some lemon balm to ship out to WN this morning.

Good morning g'nad and corin! Glad you're up and about this morning!

Looks like a good breakfast there!.

My coffee is brewin' now...

It is pourin' out... really pourin! - If I make it to the rally today myself, it doesn't look like I should bring Frodo. He'd be ruined in minutes.

Mornin' OT.

When you said you were sending Lemon balm, I didn't realize you were sending whole plants! - These for transplant?

Yes, for transplanting. They're spreading all over the place and Chester the Neighbor Cat would appreciate it if I separated it from the catnip.

Sending them priority? - or can they spend a few days in the dark?

I keep checking that bacon and those taters, and they aren't getting any more done! - You sure you remembered to turn the burners on?

I'm hungry!

The Mithril shirt won't protect him?

Just give him a rain slicker and some galoshes...he'll be fine! lol

Good morning! It's a gorgeous day here. I am going out with friends but will be back early evening. Have fun, all!

Try to have fun that doesn't involve house chores, yardwork, and horse cleanup duty.

Horse cleanup duty goes ever ever on.... no days off from that unless I quit feeding them! But it won't take long!

Steve just left for work. "Stream clean-up day". A PR thing for the city, I guess.

Anyway, yes, indeedy, six boxes! I've already got a couple of them all sealed up, and customs done...but I want to get a couple of more items in...some odds and ends to fill up gaps, so it'll probably be Monday before I get them mailed. This time I think I'll take my dad with me...I can't manage all these by myself.

Compared to 9 to 5 work, yardwork is fun!
