NOTE: Like "Lord of the Rings" in the banner above, these pages were designed to be viewed in the 'Flat Brush' font.  If your computer doesn't show them that way, right click on this link and save the file to your 'C:\WINDOWS\FONTS' folder.

Click on any of the small 'thumbnail' images bordered with WHITE and a window with a larger version of that image will 'pop-up'.  Click on the 'X' in its upper-right corner to close it when you're done.

  		    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.
 


 

 
 
 



 

You're late...


 
Gandalf and his cart
  		A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins,
nor is he early.  He arrives precisely
when he means to.


 Its wonderful to see you
again, Gandalf...
 
 

 


You didn't think I'd miss
your Uncle Bilbo's Birthday?
 
 

  		What news of the outside world?
Tell me everything...

 Everything?  You're far too eager and
curious for a hobbit.  Most unnatural...
 
 

  		Well, what can I tell you.
Life in the wide world goes on
much as it has this past age,
full of its own comings and goings,
scarcely aware of the existence of hobbits,
for which I am very thankful...

Longbottom Leaf is the pipeweed enjoyed by most Hobbits throughout the Shire
 		The Gaffer, Sam's father
 		"This... is the one art that we certainly claim to be our own invention.  When Hobbits first began to smoke is not known"
