Here we all are in the RV- this is the table
we played many a card game around on the way. (L to R: Jeff, Jeremy's back, Marco (aka Gimli), Bodhi and Heide.) |
One of our big signs: "Fellowship of the RV- To Fresno and Back Again... a Hobbit's Tale" | The other: "Fresno or Bust- One RV to Rule Them All" |
Henry and Marco stop off for snack at 7-11.
Henry wanted to take the RV through the Taco Bell drive thru. Now I
love Henry's sense of adventure as much as the next guy, but that was just
crazy talk. |

Here we are in the freezing cold (note breath
showing and ruining photo) at an old boarded up theater in the middle of
the night- WTF? |
OK- here is the real theater (granted it is still the middle of the night and freezing) |
In line, nerds abounded. Here a boy in a
Gimli costume cuts high school to wait in line and play chess. (He
later won the costume contest, it was a great beard.) |
As you can see, we are the second group in line, making the leader of our group the fourth person in. Jill (seated) Brad (with the hat) and Marco are very happy about this. |

While we waited, we were "entertained" with
scene reenactments, featuring lines such as "Dude, let's go to Mordor."
"OK" |
This is a fairly good Gollum scene. I cannot recall if the little guy played Smeagol or just was there to be terrorized. | I think this is Gandalf (note crazy fake beard/wig combo) fighting the Balroc. |
This is the limited edition WETA swag we got
for attending, each one is unique, uses real film and came certified-
thanks New Line! |
