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.

No, had to go to the post office to send some packages.

But, when it's 95 degrees out, you tend to notice it. :)

Hmm, just noticed that my tagline doesn't go with what I was saying about the heat...

But, it's easier to leave it than it is to change it every time...

Just got back some new photos of my animals. Hopefully these aren't too big...

Tam tries to get Fiona to start a game of tag. Fiona looks nonplussed.

After playing hard, they settle down for a nap. (OK, so it's actually a different day, but the photos go together!)

Halvah looks cuddlier than Tam at first glance, but she isn't thrilled about Fiona trying to share "her" chair!

Fiona sits up and ponders life's difficult questions.

Nice animals!

I'm home. At last. This week has been intolerably long.

Oh, yeah, I'm gonna have fun this weekend. Tomorrow is the big Borders Midnight Harry Potter party, and this weekend is the Mammoth Read-Aloud. A quarter-million words. Two days. Can it be done?

Guess we'll find out.

I was forgetting about the whole Harry Potter thing.

I'll let you know Monday. :)

And I wish I could forget that after three years, it's finally time, but I am so nervous it's not funny.
