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.

Hi, all. Slow day? I had to go pick up my brother... drove halfway to Virginia and back after church. Now I'm exhausted. Plus the extended family is pulling more crap, so... oh well. I'm going away this week!

Movie Faramir's struggle is to decide what is right; Book Faramir's struggle is to do what is right.

Good point too.

That is sad. She was a grand lady. An actress who was actually a pleasure to watch.

OT & Hair - yes, she was a fine actress, guess my favorite was the "African Queen".

Got a nice rain going on, bit of thunder and lighting, but chores all done, hmm. one of the basil plants is on the rear deck, so near yet so far. lol.

Hair: 'The Grove' is looking really nice, and the perfect setting for telling stories by campfire light.

Got a kick out of the comments on the Tree Cutting thread, "It's a freaking park-sheesh. whine- those trees spoil my view- There are supposed to be trees in a park" lol.

Heh.... No one likes me calling it the witch's circle, but the name sure has stuck with me! I am hoping 'The Grove' gets the rain it needs.... that grass is pretty brittle and dry.... I am temped to go buy 200 feet of hose and set a sprinkler if rain doesn't come soon to green it up!

RE: Tree cutting thread Heh.... Some folk can't see the forest for the trees that are blocking their view.
