Excitement last night. Aleia was a little behind the hobbits when they passed two males riding ponies. One of them smiled and said "Hi." to Aleia as they trotted by. She smiled (dumbly, she thought) and said, "Hello." back. The rest of the walk until they rested was spent mentally kicking herself for not saying something more clever. It was foggy and gorgeous for walking last night, too!
