labingiHappy Downfall of Sauron Day! My mind is a bit scattered and has nothing profound to say, but at least I'm in the right place: at home in my home town as I try to be on March 25 if I can. It's been atypically blustery and wet but is still beautiful and quite pleasant weather for a walk. I think hobbits would approve.
As to the fire damage from October, the recovery is both fast and slow. The trees are beginning to leaf out--from their trunks, which looks really odd. We're still waiting to see which trees are actually dead; it can take a while for them to leaf. But Phegos lives! I was sure it was a gonner after seeing its hollowed out trunk this November. In fact, it has leafed out more vigorously than any other of our old oaks!
