Did Frodo and Gandalf actually meet before Bilbo and Frodo's party? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Apparently I was under the wrong impression for quite a while. Now I feel quite stupid.

Did Gandalf ever meet Bilbo prior to their meeting at the beginning of the Hobbit? I think that either Bilbo had met Gandalf once when he (Bilbo) was very young or he had never met Gandalf prior to that meeting. Bilbo talks about Gandalf as if he is someone Bilbo has not seen in years or someone he has heard a lot about but not met yet.
