Gorwingel has just left Hobbiton.
Oh, today I went to a local Tolkien convention, and it had many great things. But one of the highlight was a charity silent auction with many cool things. Most of them were things like autographs, posters, etc. But there was one, little item... One very small item that really caught my eye. It was one of the gold rings thrown by Elijah Wood at Mardi Gras!!!

It is so cool! Instead of having the ring script, it has his name, the year, and the name of the parade. Now this item may not be impressive to local Louisiana residents, but I am a person from Washington state, so this was pretty impressive. It was donated to the auction by someone who actually attended the parade, and it even comes with pictures. But I don't know if I will try for it, it started out at the price of $25! Which I personally think it pretty steep... but I don't know... I really, really want it though.
