You have walked 144 miles.
You have reached the Great East Road west of Bree (144).
It is 8 miles to the next landmark.
You still have 314 miles to Rivendell.

Well, maybe I'm not even quite to Bree yet, but it feels like I'm on Caradhras! Last week it was about negative 30-50º Farenheit here including the wind chill, which caused school to be cancelled on Friday.

I wonder what the people of Middle-Earth would have thought of snowboarding...I can just imagine Gimli on a snowboard... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
