The Hobbit Hole IV – The Road Goes Ever On…

[HairOfTheDog]

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

The Road Goes Ever On…

• First thread: New Zealander builds Hobbit hole
• Second thread: The New Hobbit Hole
• Third thread: The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads! (Congratulations, we filled it up!)

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

[HairOfTheDog]

Welcome to the Hobbit Hole!

Right-click & "show picture" if everyone doesn't show up... We are a pretty picture all together like this!

[Ramius]

Whew... Well, now we know.

[Rose in RoseBear]

Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I live with a memory
Beneath the stars all alone
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
A moonlit pass that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendour
Hear only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender
Like petals falling apart
Speak once again of my love, my own
Broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart
For the moonlit pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone

Marvelous! The place still has that 'new car' smell.

[RMDupree]

Wonderful! And how quick! Whew!

No worries about Hobbit Hole withdrawals!

[ecurbh]

So anyway, what were we talking about?

[ksen]

Wow! This place is so.....so.....clean!

"...there was yellow light, and fire within; and the evening meal was ready, and he was expected. And Rose drew him in, and set him in his chair, and put little Elanor upon his lap.
He drew a deep breath.

‘Well, I’m back,’ he said."

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Sneaky Hobbitses... didn't see the door opening, no we didn't...

[Wneighbor]

Honey! I'm home!

[HairOfTheDog]

Hello everyone!

Come on..... come in!

[ksen]

So anyway, what were we talking about?

I don't think we've actually TALKED about anything in the past week. ;^)

[Pippin]

YIPPIE!

A new home!

[2Jedismom]

I was already shaking!

[libarian]

so...this is the new place...

Nice!

[Wneighbor]

Best song for the first one on the thread!

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

It was a bit exhilirating, wasn't it?

[Wneighbor]

I don't think we've actually TALKED about anything in the past week.

But, we sang and told jokes a lot. What better for a party?

[Pippin]

Hey, You know you got the last post at the old thread? LOL!

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Perfect quote!

[2Jedismom]

I know it...I feel kinda bad about it...I thought it oughta go to Hair...but she baited me or something with that last post...The next sentence was just too appropriate not to post.

[malakhi]

So, did anyone try to post past 65535? What happened?

[HairOfTheDog]

So anyway, what were we talking about?

I dunno. I missed about the last 400 posts on the thread....

[2Jedismom]

It won't let you.

[Pippin]

Well, Don't feel bad, I don't think Hair wanted it anyway.

[RosieCotton]

Perfect quote.

But then...I would think that!

Thanks for getting our new digs set up so quickly! They look great!

Lunch in our new Hobbit Hole!

[Wneighbor]

So, did anyone try to post past 65535? What happened?

There was a nice sweet little message for us for finishing the thread.

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

I'm just glad one of our admirers didn't get it...

[Pippin]

YUMMY!

[Wneighbor]

Oh my Ruthy, you've really outdone yourself on the holewarming food!

[2Jedismom]

Oh yeah...this is a nice comfy place...

[ksen]

So, did anyone try to post past 65535? What happened?

You get sent to a screen that looks like a "thread pulled" screen and JohnR left a message congratulating us on our accomplishment.

Then you have a link that sends you back after seeing some technical gibberish.

[Rose in RoseBear]

Yes, it was ... such an ending! Who put up the "Congratulations" smiley message?

[ecurbh]

[HairOfTheDog]

Do you want to go to this?

Can you extend your trip a little?

[RMDupree]

I love the new image for our Hobbit Hole, ecurbh. Just gorgeous! Thanks so much!

[Wordsmith]

Ack, don't DO that! I'm hungry!! LOL!

What about elevensies? He does know about that, doesn't he?

What's the countdown to the Two Towers DVD? My son and I had an LOTR movie date on Saturday night, for the first time we watched the extended version straight through. Wow. The movie only gets better after each watching. New favorite line: "I asked her for one hair from her golden head. She gave me three." Spoken with more wistful love than any other movie line I think I've ever heard.
