Though I usually consider the area where I live to be a modern version of the Shire, I walked in Fangorn near Isengard yesterday. I took a turn that led me into the woods, a spot where I hadn't been for awhile. I was saddened to see the bare patches where trees came down in last year's hurricane winds, flanked by stacks of felled trees alongside the road. The bare deciduous trees of winter added to the impression. No wizard - a natural catastrophe caused this destruction, yet Treebeard's words echoed in my mind: "Many of those trees... I had known from nut and acorn..."
