| “But I must get there before dark and I mustn’t bring a great many Dwarves with me all at once. If I do have Dwarves with me and I might meet a few along the way, then I must bring then in a few at a time,” Frodo said. Gandalf chuckled. The child knew Bilbo’s tale very well indeed. This is so adorable, GW! What a wonderful encounter. I love how Frodo absorbed Bilbo's tales, and how Gandalf learns something new about hobbits each time he visits. No wonder he starts keeping an eye on "the best hobbit in the Shire". Author Reply: Gandalf was impressed indeed and I do think someone should keep an eye on him at this point. It looks as if young Frodo is ready for an adventure or two. Maybe Bilbo will step in next time with something a bit more tame like a camping trip. Someone has to keep an eye on the best hobbit in the Shire. : ) Thank you for the lovely review! | |

| Sounds like a 'chance meeting' might have averted a problem for a week at the very least. And I would love to overhear the conversation between Bilbo and Gandalf! Author Reply: Yes, Gandalf came along at just the right time. I wonder who will keep Frodo from taking off once his travel trousers are clean again? LOL That will be quite some conversation between Bilbo and Gandalf. I may have to write that and put it somewhere. Thank you for reading! | |

| I was going to bicycle 2400 miles to see relatives back east. I never considered what I'd do once I got into the mountain passes, and between the west coast and my relatives' place I'd have gone through the Cascades, the Blue Mountains, and the Rockies, not to mention all kinds of other terrain a ten-year-old on a bike would never make it through. Fortunately I started trying to bike to a lake I thought of as close to home. I made it about ten miles before I realized I'd never get home again if I didn't turn around soon. Mom was most annoyed, and probably frightened as well. Love the planned trip and the preparations and packing, and can see he didn't actually start with that much more when he really DID leave the Shire. And I certainly empathize with Primula! Author Reply: Your planned bike trip sounds very exciting. I am guessing that at ten it also seemed very easy to do. Personally at ten or so I had big plans to walk about 65 miles or so to a 'near-by' town to visit a friend. LOL I never actually began the trip but I had fun planning it. Thanks for reading! I do look forward to hearing from you, especially when I attempt to write Frodo. Night! | |
