Author's notes:

         Hello everyone!  Thank you so much for reading A Change of Seasons, and thank you very much to those of you who have reviewed!  A Change of Seasons, though simple in nature, took a while before I was more or less satisfied with it and I am glad people could enjoy it.  I just wanted to answer a few questions and say thanks to certain  reviewers:

         Most of my research for this story came from The Appendices in The Return of the King and The Encyclopedia of Arda (an AWESOME website), located here:

Ainaechoiriel: Thank you so much for all the compliments!  I tried to make the banter as canon as I could, but was really unsure about how well I did.  Glad you liked it, though!

Pinapple-chi-chi: First of all, love the name!  I was always under the impression that Legolas and Gimli sailed by themselves to the Undying Lands, but who knows?  I could be wrong :-).  PS, 3x5 is my favorite song off the album!

DarkQueenOfTheWhump: Laura, what happened to your lj-postings?  I miss them!  Anyway, thank you for the compliments :-)

White Wolf: Thank you!  I tried to stay as close to the characters' personalities as I could. I had been wondering what happened before Legolas and Gimli left, and was glad when I remembered Tolkien had never specified what their parting  was like... creative freedom!
