And trees rarely travel...

Really, I mean how many seats do you think Southwest Airlines would make an Ent buy?

have planned to work outside all day.

It is blowing rain here today. Luckily, the weekend was gorgeous and I was able to get all my yard work done. On Sat., the kids raked the top layer of leaves, then I came after and mowed close and sucked up the remaining leaves. I went out in the evening to get lime and fertilizer so I'd be ready on Sunday. After we got home from Mass, I got everything spread and two hours later the rain started falling!! Perfect timing!

If the weather stays warm, I may have to mow one more time before the snows come, but we'll have to wait and see on that. It is in the mid 60s today, and there are still tons of leaves on the trees! It is usually looking bare about this time in MA. I don't mind if it isn't cold; that will come soon enough.

Maybe she plans to get it FOR you!

"Why didn't the Ents know about Hobbits?"

"Because the Hobbits never left the Shire much, so few folk knew about them.... And trees rarely travel, so I don't think the ents knew a lot that they couldn't overhear from folk wandering through the forest!"

I don't know either, but Hair's answer makes sense to me. I wonder also, even though the time of Middle Earth is long past, if the hobbits were a relatively new species, or at least relatively new to Middle Earth, and had not made their appearance there until after the Ents had pemanently settled in Fangorn.

Hello everyone, I'm back, have catching up to do now + read the progresss on the novels to date.

I have just given myself special dispensation to not give a hoot about what the neighbors think of the leaves in my front yard. I live between two perfect yards and they're out vacuuming every day.

Eventually, the wind will blow them into your neighbors' yards, and they can have fun vacuuming them!

I tried to post some here, but all I got was the little boxes with red x's in them, and we've seen those before.

I know what it is that you saw....
For it has been in my mind too....

Weren't you banned to Took Corner for this type of behavior? Will you ever learn?

I believe he was sent to Took corner for excessive Precious-sneaking.

While you're there yourself, you can ask him. ;^)
