    sudden snow flurries made it a chilly walk for little hobbit feet, but at 7 miles total i can just see the wee lights of hobbiton as i move onward to green hill country. looking forward (or not, inclines....) to padding along those hills tomorow. :D

    edit: i guess i'm also waving hello to brandiluharve as our paths cross!

    I am just starting today so I have some catching up to do....I will be following Frodo because that's my dogs name.
    My dogs name is OBE - (wrong blockbuster) & he keeps stopping to take a leak...i'm pretty sure Pippin never did that..........

    Did 6.4 miles counting yesterdays walk as well. So all up I have done 18.2 miles.
    Look back at lights of Hobbiton from first slopes of the Green Hill Country.
    Hobbiton hidden as slopes rise and fall.
    Stop in a birch grove. Eat a frugal supper (ca. 10 p.m.).
    Reach Stock Road
    Begin to sing. Walk through a deeply cloven track between tall trees.
    Climb a steep slope. Pippins yawns (“Nearly midnight”).
    Camp - In a firwood just over top of the hill. Sleep by a large tree. Fox sees them.

    Boy these hobbits can walk! Made it through day one.

    Ok, when last we left our...well...me...I was just about to round the hedgerows south. I did another three and a half miles since then, and seven flights of stairs. How much do stairs count, I wonder?

    So! I think that leaves me...Entering Tookland!

    Who's with me there?

    I did 2.5 miles today, which puts me at about 3.9 miles.

    I've crossed the plank bridge and am well on my way to the Brandywine Bridge. I will enter Tookland by tomorrow.

    I've had my frugal supper and am well on the way to Stock Road. 13 miles total.

    Right now I'm only including walking as that's the only exercise I'm able to do for an extended period.

    6.5 miles run today...so thats the last 1.5 miles of road rolls up and down, then Road zig-zigs to top of a steep bank and goes down for the last time. Can see across Woody End to the River. **THEY STOP TO REST, EAT, and REST more! (ca. 1:30-4:30 p.m.) Sun was beginning to get low as they went down the hill. Followed by Road ahead runs fairly straight and level. Behind them it curves slightly. BLACK RIDER. Sam and Pippin hide in a hollow. Frodo behind tree by road (ca.5 p.m.). Now 1 mile into Keep a stone's throw left of the road...slower going...

    I keep on walking but I need to add the distances up to know where I'm at! I feel lost in the woods by the road but I can't wait for the surprise of WHO will be where I will jump back on the road. Ha...!! :)

    Well after a few days sick last week, I've been back on the road for three days now...

    Luckily, we've finally begun to sing and walk the cloven track between tall trees. Only a little further to go and I'll be ready to camp for the first night.
