Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

A modest proposal...

Tuesday, December 19, 2006 marks the fifth anniversary of the release of FotR. Anyone interested in a chat-view to honor the occasion?

I only made the kids do half their school yesterday because of thegirl's birthday and told them they'd have to do the other half today...we still haven't done it. We've been out clearing off the walks and sledding. It's a great snow...we got at least 8". They played a game of clue and now their back out again...maybe when they come back inside we'll do the other half.

G'nad was allowed to go into work two hours late today...tried to convince them the roads we too bad to travel but they were gonna charge him a days leave and he doesn't have many on the books, so he took the truck. We have 3/4" of ice under all this snow and the plows hadn't gotten to the gravel yet, but he made it. He's on his way home now and plans another evening hunt.

Gunner was barking in the middle of the night and I peeked out at him and saw him barking at the falling snow. :-) I told him to get back in his kennel...which means dog house to him. Silly dog.

Yes, unless that's the day my grandparents stop by - they are coming through town to visit my great-grandfather who lives a few hours north of here and are looking at that evening as a "stop by and see the house" possibility.

Wow. Five years already! It sure does go past fast.
