I can hardly believe it's been twenty years since I began my quest into Tolkien's world through the Fellowship of the Ring film. And it's been almost 10 years since I last posted here! Can't believe I recalled my password.
It warms my heart to see so many old friends still around, and those delightful emojis!! Much has changed in my life (grown up, graduated from college, married, two kids, moved across the country numerous times, started my own business) but I'm still a Ringer and the familiarity of the boards makes me feel like I've come home. A thousand thanks to everyone who has kept the Fellowship of Middle-earth going all this time. 
Hope to be less of a "lurker" in the coming months...
