Aragorn seems to have had the final word in the 'Fellowship Destination' debate, thank goodness. Though we are likely to encounter snow and freezing temperatures over the Redhorn Pass, Legolas and I find this a less fearful prospect than Moria. Gandalf says we are still about 12 leagues from Hollin, so we will need to pick up our pace a bit if we want to reach Lórien by December 17.
--------------------
- I sit upon the stones alone;
the fire is burning red,
the tower is tall, the mountains dark;
all living things are dead.
In western lands the sun may shine,
there flower and tree in spring
is opening, is blossoming;
and there the finches sing.
