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.

Yes, I'd already thought that too...putting up some "sides" about halfway down the sides by the nesting boxes. And putting little lips on the front of the boxes.

And another thing, the ramp will probably need to be a bit more substantial, Orpies are hefty birds, from what I understand.

Which only makes my mouth water...

Matthew has already suggested that after a while we could just eat these and get some more.

I can't imagine it is that hard to get a license! - I don't even know where my birth certificate IS!

I think it looked worse than it was because the water from the pool running down my leg made it look like I was bleeding heavier than I really was.

Cool!

I can't wait for our little branch library to open up next to the supermarket by my house. It's too much of an adventure to get parking at the bigger one a little south of where I live.

I've been reading to Becky almost every night lately. We are on Chapter 5 of Wind in the Willows. Very un-PC, what with Ratty carrying around weapons and such!

You can't eat the children's pets.

Are we placing bets on that?

This is a picture of Roy.

Shucks.

Steve can butcher a rabbit...he did it to help me prepare a coney stew with herbs...no taters though. (This is straight from the Books...you really need to get reading!)

If she waits till 04, Roy will be pretty tough:), I've been told you eat them when they are still pretty young. But I don't know for sure.
