Like the goblins buried in the depths of collapse at Khazad-dûm, many of us haven't seen the sun for a long time. Winter's icy grip has our town in a stranglehold, keeping the glories of sunshine on our faces. Perhaps at this point, many hibernating Lord of the Rings fans can't help but think they'll turn to stone like a mountain troll the moment their skin catches a little natural Vitamin D. And while we've spent most of winter re-watching the battles of Minas Tirith and Helm's Deep, we imagine a sunny nap in the hills of Hobbiton after a half-pint at the Green Pony.
Alas, we feel like Frodo—at the end—where he lays in Sam's arms, withered and fatigued from an impossible journey across Middle Earth. We've forgotten the way the grass feels or the songs of the Shire. Spring may be just around the corner, but right now, we need our hype-man Samwise Gamgee at our side to get us through the final stretch of winter. Hold on, fellow Ringbearers! You've almost made it!
