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.

So, she's my miracle Grama again and if I can get things sufficiently taken care of here I will be going back as soon as class is over on Wednesday.

Glad to hear it WN.... I hope you can spend as much time as possible.

Well I like so far, since I got to go home 3 hours early today. Managed to get a little work done on the forum. Added an Amazon banner, and links to chat and back here. And tweaked the layout just a tad. Looks like a nice day to be at the beach! It was absolutely gorgeous here today. I would rather have gone for a hike, but had to make do with a walk to work.

I better hit the hay. I have to get up early to go to the dentist. Ick.

Good night!

Hi, 2J, I've been up about 2 hours, didn't mean to get up quite so early, though.

That's pretty cute how you got just the right amount of donation from the lady at the yard sale to round everything out.

Good Morning. It was pouring down when I woke up this morning. Supposed to rain all week.

Yep. And my postage that I figured was right on the money...$71 exactly. I weigh all the packages on an antique baby scale then figure it on the online postage calculator. Got exactly right.

So we had 34 cents when I got done.

Amazing.

Good morning! Steve made my coffee and I'm sitting here drinking it! It was one of his Mother's Day presents to me...he'd have the coffee made!

Yeah, we are having a tropical wave move to the south of us, it's in the Caribbean. But it is close enough to give quite a few showers. The mosquitos are getting pretty ferocious, with all the rainfall the past few weeks. 'Course it's the rainy season.

Morning, OT

Was just scanning back through some posts...saw the chicken coop. Quite a work of art it became, it's cool.

Well, I have to take off, will check back later, I hope.

We have a frontal boundary stalled over us. Oh well....if it keeps raining I can't get my house stuff done, right? So I can't move to Kansas, right? :)

Ha!

Hey, Jar Jar...the one on my shoulder up above...is sick! I'm going to put her on some Terramicin from the feed store today. She just sneezes and sneezes. The terramicin is very cheap...about $3 for 300 gallons of the stuff!

I got an email from Lisa. Said it takes some planning to have someone around at the right time every day to turn the eggs, but, quote "The kids have been faithful."

She is going to candle today and let me know how many are growing...I'll let you know.

I show them being due to pip around the 24th or 25th...

Good morning. It's Monday...yay.

OK weekend. Sometimes my siblings drive me up the wall and vice versa. We did that a lot yesterday.

Got back some cute pictures of Fiona, Tam and Halvah. Have to scan some in one of these days.
