Dang dude, hats off for your perseverance! Sounds like Sauron really had his eye on you!

I was really intrigued by your loaf of (waybread? fruitcake? couldn't tell haha). What is it made of? It looks really hearty and durable for travel!

Re: What's everyone working on?

Mae Govannen from Georgia, USA!

Hello all! Can't express how glad I am to finally introduce myself to you all. I have been in love with Tolkien since I first saw the films when I was 12, and used to trek through the woods behind my grandparents' house with a stick sword and a blanket for a cloak, playing at being Aragorn and Legol...
