Update:

As promised, Gems has restarted on November 1st.  We’ll be going back to M-F every week from now on.  The series “Bag End to Rivendell” (The Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkien) Gem #’s 33-54 will be updated on Under 1000 Skies as soon as I have appropriate photos.  I appreciate all the photos donated for Gems, and I used as many as I could that suited the hobbit journey.  We’ll do this series again next year and by then we should be able to fill in those photos and as well as other walks through Middle Earth with appropriate photos without having to worry about copyright infringement.

Bag End to Rivendell, Day 15 of 28

GEMS 1.32

Oct. 7 – Day 15 (1st from Weathertop): 19 miles

(7 Oct – 15th Day from the Shire – Dawn) In the night, the Nazgûl attacked. I couldn’t find Mr. Frodo, then I heard him cry out as from far away — strange words they were! Then, when he appeared, he was bad hurt! Strider fought the cursed things off. At full light, we made our way down to the Great Road. As we crossed, we heard the Riders and ran into the brambles. We camp here tonight. Strider says Mr. Frodo’s wound came from a Morgul-blade and is cursed!

Mile 229 – Weather Foothills
We’ve reached the Weather Hills.  We’ll climb tomorrow.  Tonight we make camp.  Feels good to rest in clean air without those midges flying all over the place. (from The Journal of Samwise Gamgee)
