LOTR Caption Contest: CVIII Edition

Can't Post

Thank you, Belegdir, for choosing my caption. It's been a while since I have participated, so I was very pleasantly surprised to have my entry chosen. So, without further ado, I give you Caption Contest 108. (Special thanks to Altaira for her technical advice which enabled me to post the picture myself. )

Gandalf is trying to connect with the force, and he will let the force guide him to the right path.

There were so many clever entries, but I especially loved your word play. Congratulations, sador, and have fun choosing the image for round 109!

It was supposed to be just a joke, and here I end up being nominated... Thank you very much! It will force me out of my semi-retirement; and who knows? I might find the energy to return to the RR. Thanks, zarabia! Now I need to hunt for an image for the next round.
