And now taking Grammy Georgia C. Schmidt to her first comic con this week 🤗🤗🤗Angie Miller
Sam, Frodo and Merry made a surprise visit to Portland, OR on Sat. Sept 10 to attend their first Comic Con. Pippin was also there but he was officially engaged with meeting his fans and was unable to hang out with his fellow hobbits.
After getting our ID badges we entered the convention hall and met several friends also visiting. 
One mighty big
hobbit foot....
Who's the holy hobbit, hopping hopelessly home?
My Sam likes to ham it up!!
Frodo found his happy place...
RCCC..... BEHIND THE SCENES.....
We were privileged to shake hands with Billy Boyd. We didn't expect to see him. Since it cost $50 to have a signed photo or to get a picture with him we didn't plan to do that.
When we got to the convention center Billy Boyd was sitting in the open. There were only a few people in his line. The contact lady said he was letting folks come and shake his hand and talk a bit. We were so excited.
The embarrassing part is that we were so excited that we said we were Frodo, Sam and Pippin and we were looking for Merry. Billy quietly said, "I'm Pippin". OPPS. I meekly told him Frodo gets a bit mixed up these days. He was very nice.
A LITTLE MORE BEHIND THE SCENES.....
So for Gram G's secret project I was going to sew matching brown cloaks for us. I bought a pattern for $16....
fortunately it was on sale for $1.99. And 15 yards of soft
dark brown material for 3 cloaks. So measure and cut and measure and cut I did....figured out how to sew again 
Finally got it done....almost..Decided it was too much pressure and work to make 2 more in the next few days....
Don't mess with me....
Secret project gone awry....now what
One spends an afternoon on Amazon.com and orders a bunch of stuff with a month's free trial of Amazon Prime (for fast and free shipping)
Frodo's friend, Gram G, doingsome hobbit clothes shopping for him at the local Salvation Army....
they fit perfectly....
Soon 3 hobbits are ready for their trip to upper earth and Rose City Comic Con....
Whoa.....Merry, your hair is a bit frizzy
EVEN MORE BEHIND THE SCENES....
Frodo was first observed visiting Portland almost a year ago when he was spotted traveling through PDX on his way to San Diego. He said he was on official business to welcome his new descendant in the royal line...
Berklee Evergreen King Schmidt
He has been so warmly welcomed in Portland he said he and his fellow hobbits hope to visit quite often...
