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.

Morning everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I am closer than ever to having a new front landscape (not close enough though) and I had 2 sets of friends from home show up to visit!!! A surprise visit Saturday and a planned visit Sunday! That was fun.
To: Corin Stormhands; All
Corin, you forgot Eowyn!
re: Printers - we have a Lexmark combo deal - printer/scanner/copier - all for $150. It's not too bad for the price.
I'd prefer a lazer jet any day of the week, but for what we use it for, it's adequate.
How's everybody been?

I am closer than ever to having a new front landscape... April showers are washing my May flowers into the neighbor's yard...
To: ItsOurTimeNow
My bad. I was in a hurry.
Wasn't thinking when I mentioned printers last night. It needs to be multi-function 'cause we use it for fax too. Going looking tonite. Any and all recommendations welcome.
To: Corin Stormhands
Oh yeah, the Lexmark we have faxes too, if you have a dedicated line.
It's the X-73 model, if you want to check it out at www.lexmark.com

Thanks. I'll look at it. Yeah, we have a dedicated line that we used to use for the net and for faxing. Since we've gone cable we just use it for faxes.

We had twenty minutes to get out the door to church - and we didn't make it.Oh, I feel a bit better now! I forgot, too. Didn't remember until I was pulling into the parking lot and people were obviously almost ready to LEAVE instead of just coming in! There wasn't anything I could do about it at that point, but I spent the afternoon feeling a bit guilty...
To: HairOfTheDog
Thanks for the report, Hair! I wanna read it a few more times when I get the chance!

Lance Cprl Todd Gehrke, 27, entertains fellow Marines with his tin whistle as they ride in an amphibious assault vehicle.Cool picture, though I'm not sure the other Marines look entertained... ;-)

April showers are washing my May flowers into the neighbor's yardOops. you are getting my April showers then. I'm not used to the new rain habits here. We don't get as much here. I can compensate for that. BUT, the trouble is, when we do get it, it all comes in about 5 minutes and runs off. So you get no good soakings. :-( learning to garden in weirdness.
To: HairOfTheDog
Okay, the visit with Sean was awesome! You did a great report. Definitely not too long of a post. You can do a longer one the next time.
To: Wneighbor
We're actually getting SNOW today, if you can believe it. Forecast is for 6-10 inches in the northern end of the state, 4-8 down the southern end where I live.
In April, no less!
I'm so totally DONE with winter!

So how well do those All Devourer (Mantis') really work? I've looked at them thoughfully. Would I like one just for doing yard tilling? I used to borrow my dad's Troybilt when I lived in the country for tilling a quarter acre, but now, it's only beds on a residential lot.
To: Corin Stormhands
Good Morning! Looks like it's going to rain all week.
To: ItsOurTimeNow
I was hearing snow reports for the east on the radio weather report this morning. I woke up cold too. It was down in the 50's.
sorry.
couldn't resist.
To: Wneighbor
LOL...the 50's would be a heat wave for us!

Hi and good morning everyone!
Hair - I am simply green with envy!! Thanks for the report - I closed my eyes after reading it and pretended I was there. Now THAT's something I *swoon* for! Especially your description of his clothing. Mmmmmm...talk about your "hobbit dreams"!
OK *slapping myself* - on to breakfast!
Pancakes and maple syrup with scrambled eggs, 4 platters of bacon and fried ham strips. Home fries and buttermilk biscuits are on the table in the covered baskets. Coffee is hot and juices are chilled! ENJOY!!
I've been so busy with the kids that I haven't had a chance to watch much FOX News. I heard we stormed Baghdad last night! Our soldiers are just TOO COOL!
