'In a Hole In the Ground, There Lived a Hobbit...'
Happy Birthday, Bilbo & Frodo! A pint of the Green Dragon's best to you both!
Besides being a birthday, it's the first day of Autumn as well.
Fall is my favourite season. In a way, it mirrors my favourite time of day; twilight. Autumn and Twilight, two spans of time that usher in dark and sleep. A time to cast aside the cares of the bright light of day and to lull your thoughts into dreams.

Posted by: Sharon Ferguson at September 22, 2005 2:06 PMThe reason I remebered is becuase a coworker is reading the books for the very first time, and Monday, he noted that he shared his birthday with Bilbo and Frodo.

and a pipeful of the Southfarthing, too!
Funny, I didn't realize it was Bilbo and Frodo's day until I saw this. I'm re-reading the book, too!
Silly me.
