Geocache Description:

PNG. 7th cache in a series of 12 to commemorate Gimli's Fellowship in LOTR. Bring name leaver...Congrats to FuzzyOso for FTF!

The Lord of the Rings begins with Bilbo's "eleventy-first" (111th) birthday, 60 years after The Hobbit. In The Hobbit Bilbo calls himself "Ring-Finder", "Ring-Winner", "Luck-Wearer", "Lucky Number", "Stinging Fly", and "Barrel-Rider" in front of Smaug, who is pleased by the riddling.
He is later dubbed "Ring-bearer", and Elf-friend

In 2989 (SR 1389), Bilbo, a lifelong bachelor, adopted Frodo, the orphaned son of his first cousin Primula Brandybuck and his second cousin Drogo Baggins, and made him his heir. Though Frodo was actually "his first and second cousin once removed either way", the two regarded each other as uncle and nephew.
