- Found it
I must admit that I don't really follow open caching and was put on to this one by a friend. What an excellent puzzle that was pretty rapidly solved (well compared to others of the CO's). Both having solved it, I wanted to get out quickly and have a play but unfortunately he couldn't get the time to go and he put me in contact with Amberel and the team.
- "I am looking for someone to share in an adventure that I am arranging, and it's very difficult to find anyone."
"I should think so — in these parts! We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures. Nasty disturbing uncomfortable things! Make you late for dinner!"
Met up with Amberel, Smudge42, Nom&jeep and Sandvika. So the Unexpected party set off over hill and under hill into the mines (sadly not Moria this time). A bit of a shaky start that required a short rest(but no roast mutton) before solving a few riddles in the dark. Flies and Spiders, barrels and even queer lodgings were all in there.
There were even a few Out of the frying-pan into the fire moments and times when we wished for some inside information and cursed the thief in the night for stealing the last stage!
Far over the misty
mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To seek the pale enchanted gold.
Log signed we made the return journey a rather long one and once again emerged into the outside world, not to a gathering of clouds but the heat and humidity of fire and water.
No Rivendell or prancing pony but the Quarrymans arms, where we partook of Dragons Gold and pipe weed (well I did) before heading off to our various parts of the Shire.
- Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the walls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they have long known.
Many thanks for an epic day.
