Perhaps it's the stiff summer sun, the rolling sea breeze, or the call of the wild, but I've been craving an adventure lately. Like hobbits cooped up in the cozy hobbit holes returning to the surface after a long winter, the world has bloomed around us and now summons us into the fold. While our personal adventures likely won't include any elves, wizardry, or a particularly malicious piece of gold jewelry, a hobbit's urge to venture forth is buried deep within every Lord of the Rings fan.

Desperate to open a pair of saloon doors like Aragorn entering Rohan and fiending for our chance to prove our quality like Faramir, adventure exists all around us—we just need to reach out and grab it.

So if you're looking forward to a vacation or any time away from home, turn it into an adventure by going along with your cast-iron-pan-carrying bestie, pack up your most honorable armor, and prepare for the experience of a lifetime. Grab your adventures like Gollum grabbing fish out of a river and reap the succulent rewards of being alive—Smeagol style.
