All I Want For Christmas Is “Lord Of The Rings”

Wish I could have been back in Madison with the Salos for the opening of Return of the King. Our family is going to put the finishing touches to our Christmas Day by treating ourselves to the movie after eats and gifts.

We did the same thing last year with Two Towers. I’d love every Christmas to be like that. Wish Peter Jackson could just keep churnin’em out. But that would no doubt be beyond human endurance or fiscal possibility.

It was so great to be able to visit with Dorothea and David last year just before seeing the film, and to thumb through the amazing book of photographs from the movie sets which David had been given in recognition of his excellent work of translation for the trilogy.

Happy Holidays, D & D!
