More things to do while riding on the Alaskan Highway, Fantasy Edition

We've re-entered the Canadian Rockies, this time their northern
extremes, and the landscapes are so fantasical, it is as though we've
passed into another world. The locals might describe it like this:

"And ye though the travelers, clad in leather and raiments of unknown
provenance, with magical proofing against water, tarried not through
the rain or fog or fairer weather, the mountains would not relent. And
days and days would come to pass before they would see the end of them."

Here, then, are the ways we'd suggest spending your time while
traversing these mountains:

• Stop at all hobbit crossings

• Wait for Venger or the Dungeon Master to appear

• Keep an eye out for the exit to Narnia

• Conjugate verbs in Elvish

• Practice perfect wrist flick for 20-sided die roll

• Craft legislative arguments to rename it the "Tolkien Highwëigh"

• Make nerdy lists

  1. Nerdy being the KEY word there because I understood almost of NONE of that. But I love you both (nerd tendencies and all) and hope that the GODLESS KILLING MACHINES (AKA bears) leave you in all of your Hobbity-Elvish-Narnia-Dungeony peace.

    And I also wish you GAS. Lots and lots of GAS and NOT the kind that comes out your arse! :)
