| Awwww! What a sweet finale! ------ “Pippin only wanted stories with birds in them,” he whispered. “I suspect that he’ll be requesting a pet duck when he returns home.” “I’ll warn his parents,” Bilbo grinned. “His father is rather allergic to feathers.” He carefully knelt and slid the snack tray into the tent. “Thank you,” came several muffled voices.----- I can just see that interchange happening! Author Reply: Thanks, Ella! I think I left no fluff unturned for this story, and I'm so glad that folks enjoyed it. :) | |

| I loved Frodo's idea for a tent inside - that brought back lots of memories! This was the perfect conclusion to a wonderful story :) Author Reply: Thank you! The "tent" brought back memories for me, as well! My mom used to make us tents in the livingroom, and our dog loved running in and out of them. too. | |

| Sam is correct,” Aragorn said gravely. “You can never take a chance with fire, Frodo, even if you believe it to be nothing but cold ash. If you have water, drown it. If you have sand or soil, bury it.” I have to chuckle. Spoken like a true SD fire survivor. Get the word out, Smoky. Loved the story . . . . and I can't wait for your next fantastic chapter . . . .please remember those of us who love drama and action, danger and heroism; we're still out here, keeping the faith, waiting for another good story . . . not that I would try to drop a hint or anything. Be safe out there in southern California, Esamen Author Reply: You've been so patient! I plan to at last start writing the "drama and action, danger and heroism" story (the Barrow-wights) in January -- there are a few other things I need to write first. But it will come, never fear! I'm happy you enjoyed the fluffage in the meantime! (And yes, I *did* find myself putting some "fire prevention" tips in this chapter! The fires were a year ago this week, actually.) | |

| Ohhhhhh!!!!! What a lovely, perfect ending! I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed this wonderful bit of fluff. Finding it in the morning after you've posted chapters and reading while having my first cup of coffee has been such a sweet confection, leaving me with warm fuzzies all day long. Thank you for this sweet, sweet story! Author Reply: Thank *you*! I really enjoyed writing this -- it's such a pleasure to give our characters a happy outing once in a while! | |

| Oh, Okay! *grudgingly nudges Frodo to move over just a little bit* C'mon Pip! Here's a little spot in my heart just for you. This story was adorable from beginning to end. Wonder if Estel is going to make it a habit to stop by near his birthday...... (?) Author Reply: Awww. Toddler Pip scampered his way into your heart. Thank you! Yes, I think, if Estel wants memorable/heartwarming birthdays, he should accidentally find himself in the Shire every year around March 1. :) | |
