It occurred to me that it would have been 40 years ago this year that I first read The Lord of the Rings at the age of 15. What a long, wonderful journey it has led me on! How many dear friends it has made me!
Bradford Ontario, where I live with Marian, has just had its first proper snow storm. Time for boots, scarves, wood fires, and hot cider; how the weeks have flown by over the course of this 2010 year!
