A cold day but who cares? My Hummer has Climate Control!

We're driving to Gondor now. Frodo told me this was the right road. I believe him.

He said we will come to a river, the Brandywine. I see water up ahead now. Maybe we are there?

*glances into back seat* Hey! Are you guys still here? I don't see you. *reaches back; runs hand over blanket*

Oops. They're still here. Sorry, whoever that was.

* I throw the snuggly blanket off....

... and sputter angrily*

What ARE you on about, Otho? We were just.. ermm.. uh...

*I quickly adjust my breeches*

...playing our favorite travel game!

Where are we??

[othosb]

*looks at game; looks at Sam* Interesting way you mark your squares. *coughs*

We are at a river. It must be the Brandywine. Luckily, you are in a Hummer and we can cross easily. This baby can take anything I give her. I'll drive right thru the water. Hold on.

*revs engine*

[_misterfrodo]

*I sit up quickly* No! Wait! We can't cross here! It's too dangerous! We'll drown for sure!!!!

Besides, I'm about to win this game and that will put me two ahead of Sam.

*Gawks at the river looming right ahead*

[mayorsamgamgee]

Snakes and adders, othosb!! Are you trying to drowned us??

*I clutch Mr. Frodo*

Is this contraption going to stop in time???

*Watches in fright as the river draws closer*

[_misterfrodo]

*I clutch Sam back* Sam! We're all going to die! I just know it!

*My eyes scan the banks of the river in desperation* Otho, look!! *I lean over the front seat and point wildly*

There's a BRIDGE! Use it!!!
