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 hope they aren't scattered, divided and leaderless!

I need to go out and get some ribs....family reunion today.

Grumble, grumble, grumble. For a whole week I'm saying "It's this weekend,right?" And everyone says "no...next weekend." Guess what. Last night at 10:30, Brother calls up..."I'm supposed to remind you that the reunion is tomorrow....guess I should have called sooner."

Thanks. I've been trying to avoid hearing/reading too much about it beforehand.

I was just on the phone trying to talk my dad into going down to Mt. St. Helens. This was 13 years ago today, May 18, 1980.

more Mt St. Helens eruption photos

OT & Hair - thought the same thing myself, been gardening, took Samantha for her walk, its quiet around the neighborhood. Even the canines are quiet, whoops, there goes a lawn mower. 11:30 that's okay. Guess the hobbits are simply puttering. But you know, ribs do sound good, hmmmm.

Hair; actually 23 years ago, lol. I remember that well, I was on my way to Damman, Saudi Arabia, to work on the airport master plan for Jubail Industrial City. The airport got a lot of use later on in Desert Storm. Interesting experience. Haven't done any overseas work since though, I'm am somewhat relieved to report. Our company didn't have a lot of luck with overseas work. Had offices in Tehran, Beruit, and a couple of other places like that.
