Found a Troll-hole, y'all! (Probably best to stay alert after that. Hope we packed our Troll spray...) Now on a level path through the woods. (Now that sounds like my kind of hiking.)

May 14th to 18th
Oops! I forgot once again to put on the pedometer, so I don't know how much I walked on the 15th of May. I seem to recall thinking that it wasn't a huge loss of steps, as I had been fairly sedentary that day, so I'll make an extremely conservative estimate and give myself credit for half a mile. I must have walked at least that much in a whole day, right?

The hills are getting higher and steeper. We've been forced north, out of our way, and have camped on a stony shelf by a shallow cave (in the rain).
(According to the info on the Eowyn's Walk site, it's mid-October, by the time the hobbits get to this point in their journey. I am so jealous. Here in Modern-Earth, it's May and already getting too hot and humid for my liking. Thus the treadmill.)

May 8th to 13th
Oof. My step-counts for the past several days are abysmal, but I have been active. Unfortunately, gardening and housework don't add up to many counted steps. Still, I ought to make an effort to get on the treadmill more often...

The hills have quickly shut us in, making difficult going. More climbing... (Phew. I hope it's not as hot and humid in Middle-Earth as it is in southern Alabama!)

We returned to the Great East Road, crossed River Hoarwell/Mitheithel, turned north from the road, and entered the steep lands of Trollshaws (complete with ruined walls and frowning towers).
(Everything seems to have happened all at once! Were less than a hundred miles from our destination! Even so, it seems amazing that we're still so far from Rivendell. The movie must really condense this part of the story, and it's been so long since I read the book that I don't remember much of the parts not in the movie.)

April 25th to May 2nd
There continues to be a tug of war between gardening and walking. It's not likely that I'll be doing both on the same day, and those times that I work in the yard, I'm just not going to get big step-counts. That's okay-- both are a form of exercise, surely...

The land is finally starting to rise in this endless valley!! We can see a "huddle of hills" ahead...
