The Room Where It Happened!

The Room Where It Happened! A reference to the musical Hamilton You never know when something that you do is going to be the last time that you do it, but here it is: Time to say goodbye. It was an honor working with you, and I wish you all the best! Salvete, Discipuli! God bless you! "Farewell, my brave Hobbits! My work is now finished. Here at last, on the shores of the sea ... comes the end of our Fellowship." Gandalf at the Gray Havens   Exeunt.
