In a hole in the ground, there lived a Hobbit. But let's not focus too hard on that hole, with its polished floors and silver cutlery. Just outside that hole, there was a garden. It was one of the most beautiful in the Shire with hydrangeas and marigolds a-plenty.
It was never May's plan to be a gardener. She wanted to become an apothecary. She wanted to tend an herb garden of her own, not someone else's flowerbeds. But even so, gardening was the Gamgee family business, and the Bagginses had been long-time customers.
May Gamgee was 33 (19 by human maturity standards, she had read once) when things started to get... odd.

Air in my lungs
'Til the road begins
As the last of the bugs
Leave their homes again
And I'm splitting the road down the middle
For a minute the world seemed so simple
