Yet another new guy thread.

Hail and Well Met!
I have come from afar, seeking fellowship and fun. I'm the new guy, so let me tell you a little about myself. I've always been a fan of Lord of the Rings. When I was little, my mom used to read the "The Hobbit" to me before going to bed. Since then, I've read the Lord of the Rings at least four times. One thing I have always loved in the books is the Rangers, particularly Strider. So, in my enthusiasm, I started researching Ranger garb. Imagine my surprise when I came across an entire forum devoted to the Rangers! And not just the clothes, but woodcraft, fighting, the culture! I quite literally jumped for joy. So that's the story of how I came to this forum.
Another reason why I joined this forum is that I thought that ya'll might be able to help with a different Ranger outfit. One of my favorite fantasy series is "Ranger's Apprentice" by John Flanagan. I was just wondering if ya'll would allow question of that sort.
My kit consists of one green cloak. It's pretty heavy and I only use it for a ceremonial cloak. I don't tramp around in the woods with it since it tends to get caught in things. That is my entire kit. It's rather sad.
So, anyway, I'm male, 6'2 and have brown hair. (No, I can't play a hobbit, sad to say.) I enjoy reading, camping, whitewater kayaking and tons of other outdoor stuff. I love archery but unfortunately, I can't pursue it that much because I don't own a bow! (Stay tuned for a thread about that.) I enjoy in Indiana Jones. I am even a member of a different forum about his gear. The forum is called "Club Obi-Wan". Check it out. I also enjoy Star Wars and Stargate. I work in a vet clinic, scooping poop and holding dogs. I'm not very skilled in the internet, so if I start to annoy anybody, slap me upside the head. I won't mind, honest!
So that's me. I'm looking forward to many years of fun.
Thanks,
