Well, boys and girls, today marks the 70th anniversery of the first publishing of "The Hobbit", a simply marvelous book, which, in my opinion, everyone should read sometime between the ages of 12-15. And then every few years. It's written by JRR Toilken, a good friend of CS Lewis, one of my absolute faves, and the author of "The Chronicles of Narnia", (another excellent series, which I grew up listening to my parents read). Anywho, "The Hobbit is all about the adventures of Bilbo, and Gandalf, and their dwarf friends who are on an adventure to find "the treasure under the mountain". It's a funny, exciting book, which is also a delight to listen to on cd as you paint your garage, as I found out last summer. That's it for tonight's ramble, except to say, Hooray for Bilbo Baggins!!!
