[Bashies] Missing you all, too...

[Kristi Brobeck]

To Luin, glad to hear you're able to go off to Egypt!  Wanna come help me 
unpack after that??  No, I didn't think so...

I do now have Asfaloth, Frodo and Arwen posed in the windowsill, as 
promised.  The sunlight shines on them in a such a lovely way.  Now, how to 
explain them to our future guests!

Sorry I don't yet have photos of the new digs.  Camera needs a new battery 
and everything is closed today.  After mowing the back yard with a push 
mower (and I mean push mower, no engine of any kind except for yours truly 
pushing it with her music playing in her ears) I won't take it (the 
mini-Lothlorien) for granted.  Hubby is itching to get a riding lawnmower, 
but I figure you should be more in touch with your surroundings than that.  
Then again, I don't know how many times I can mow both front and back lawn 
with the pushmower.  I guess those Elves didn't worry about mowing, eh?  And 
I have visions of Hobbits using a scythe, which could lead to all kinds of 
personal injuries, so I won't even go there... =]

For you Americans in the group, I hope you're enjoying a quiet and 
well-rested Labor Day.  I've been schlepping boxes from the living room into 
the garage and am now waiting for a couple of friends from choir to come by 
and visit with housewarming vibes and beer, both of which are appreciated.

No-one has sent a DVD player yet, so I'm dealing with Bash withdrawal 
through listening to the soundtrack, hanging out in Barlis, and planning my 
roadtrip to Chicago for the TTT mini-Bash.  And then there's the Reading 
Room which starts back up with book one of LotR this week...

I hope that you all are doing well, and thank you for being a major part of 
the joy in my life.  And Maegwen, I keep checking the Barlibash website for 
updates, just to check...
Jincey and Samgamgee7, I look forward to hearing your updates about 
DragonCon!!

I wish you all a fond farewell, for now, that is.

"Those were the days of Gloaming (Lomendánar), for light there was, silver 
and golden, but it was not gathered together but flowed and quivered in 
uneven streams about the airs, or at times fell gently to the earth in 
glittering rain and ran like water on the ground; and at that time Varda in 
her playing had set but a few stars within the sky."
-The Book of Lost Tales, Part One
