Just to tie in my two themes this month----
Additional notes, because poll options apparently limit their characters:
Frodo finds great peace in watching the tides rise and fall throughout each day. He attends all the ranger programs on birds and seashells and fills pages with sketches and poetry.
Sam meticulously selects postcards in the gift shop for each of his friends and spends a whole morning writing and addressing them. He also buys Junior Ranger hats for his kids and a variety of Appalachian jams for Rosie.
Park rangers launch a Missing Person search for Aragorn when they realize his car's been parked at Avalanche Creek for three days. The search runs for almost a week before he comes strolling out the opposite side of the park, supporting one of the SAR techs who twisted an ankle during the search.
Legolas is first drawn to Olympic for the towering, mossy temperate rainforests, but the ground goes out from under him when he steps onto Second Beach for the first time. He spends an entire day watching the light and tides shift on the sea stacks, and he leaves feeling both full and hollow, like a bell that's just been rung.
Mammoth is only Gimli's first stop on a cavern tour, followed by Jewel and Wind Caves and Carlsbad Caverns. Wind Cave is his favorite for the unusual formations. He makes an obnoxious tween boy cry in Carlsbad for breaking off a speleothem.
Boromir is on a tour of military parks. He asks so many questions to the intern working the info station at Fort Sumter the kid has to go find the park historian. His favorite site is Vicksburg because that place was buckwild, though he silently judges one of the reenactors for his clumsy handling of a black powder rifle.
Merry also makes stops in Jurassic and Dinosaur National Monuments. He watches every park video, takes selfies in front of all the fossil exhibits, and earns his Junior Ranger badge at each one. He buys a keychain for Pippin.
Pippin actually gets four citations, mostly for trying to stick his hands in mud pots. He doesn't mean anything by it---he's just so delighted and curious about the bizarre landscape. He winds up with several thermal burns and dumps a king's ransom in the donation box on his last day.
Gandalf gets dinged by rangers for not paying the $5 fee for Trunk Bay, but he acts senile until they eventually decide to drop it. He gets postcards from everyone and responds to none of them.
Faramir and Eowyn are traveling together and do many of the same hikes and rides, but they do have some different preferences off-trail. Eowyn drags Faramir to a rodeo and the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar in Jackson Hole, and he goads her into Ranger Shelton Johnson's living history programs on the Buffalo Soldiers in Yosemite.
Eomer is bike-packing on his sport cruiser motorcycle. He goes to Roosevelt south unit for the wild horse herds but ends up spending half a day watching a prairie dog town. He takes 400 photos of them, mostly blurry, and texts them to Eowyn.

Here's an artwork in LAMINATOR Vol. 1 zine (which has arrived in your mailbox by now if you're local!): A painting called Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone by artist Constance Volk (Oak Park, Illinois). Her statement:
"I create textured paintings intended for touch. My paintings begin with a clay foundation, forming channels that allow liquid prismatic oil to flow and marble as it cures, resulting in creations that have the appearance of stone and metal. I call this technique 'channelling'. The channels of these paintings, featuring Yellowstone National Park, form solvable mazes, intended to be travelled by fingertip."
Constance will also have a solo exhibition at Oak Park Public Library where you can see this piece (and others) in person. The show opens today, with a reception tomorrow, and will be on view through April 14. Congratulations, Constance!

“The ‘hard-working’ commissary department. Brains and Henry tear off a few snores.” This photo is part of a souvenir set of images of the 1926 outing of the Sierra Club to Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Teton. Photo from our online catalog.
Beginning in 1901, the Sierra Club held an annual outing, eventually known as the High Trip. Up until 1930, outings were led by William Colby. In 1926, some 200 hikers trailed by pack animals and cooks hiked into Yellowstone National Park. Hikers broke into small groups, exploring various different trails – this album follows one small group. This small group also climbed the Grand Tetons once out of Yellowstone, before heading home.

“Tap gets attention from the tonsorial department. Miggie clips 'em while Bobby A files 'em off:” A tonsorial department is focused on grooming (i.e. hair, nails, shaving). This is another image in the set from the 1926 outing of the Sierra Club, from our online catalog.
