Fumbling after Frodo

Well, sometime over the past couple of months I had the opportunity
to track down the Frodo's Dream mystery box
(http://www.sover.net/~tcooch/frodo.htm).
I think I found the starting point, which is often half the fun, and
if I didn't, what I found certainly _should_ be the starting point
for something :-) Then I spent three hours wandering down the garden
path, as it turns out, hopelessly making my discoveries and ovservations
fit the clues.
In the end I struck out, but it just goes to show that it can be just
as much fun not to find a box as it is to find one. Thanks Tom!
I still have some leads, hopefully my travel schedule will allow me to
try them out later this year ...

You're welcome, Randy. I hope you will have the time to keep with
it. I think that once you have the starting point, the rest of it
comes around pretty quickly.
I, meanwhile, am having a lot of fun with your quatrains, though have
not gotten enough of them solved for the clues to begin revealing
themselves. I don't suppose you'd like to supply a picture for the Mu
quatrain :-)
Best,
Tom
