Aw, Bill and pony love! I enjoyed this tail, Ms. Larner.

I am so glad you do, Addie. Loved looking at Merry starting to relax and talk while watching the ponies myself. Thanks so!

I do think it would take something out of doors and having to do with Merry's own interests to begin letting him start to relax and speak of what was done during the quest itself, and I so love the idea that his Uncle Mac would earn such trust first. Thank you so, Mews!

Thank you so much for this! What a wonderful connection between Merry and Merimac. I wonder if this was the first time Merimac heard so much about Frodo's quest. What a wonderful idea to see the new bonds between the Shire and the outside world though the future breeding stock of Buckland :)

You are so welcome, Lily. I do suspect that this was one of the first times Merry unbent far enough to tell so much of the nature of the quest that drew the four of them outside the shire. And what better ways to open the minds of the Shirelings than to help them see how intercourse and trade with the outside will benefit all? And do hope your birthday was delightful, my friend.
