55-59 Miles
After we leave Stock-Brook, we're traveling south, trying to get back on track to the Ferry.
The hobbits got wet when a brief rain passed over them as they hiked through the stretch of old forest land that we're in here. I hope our weather holds!
The hobbits had a bit of lunch just before the 60 mile mark. They were enjoying the Elven
draught they found in their water bottles when they heard the first Nazgul cry. It reminded them of their danger and they quickly resumed their journey. As we follow their path, we'll
leave the woods behind and set off across a stretch of open country.
