Yes, it is actually like that. The beautiful fall colors - which are also all around down here in southern NY - are commonplace throughout the Northeast, and especially anywhere there are sugar maples. And you can get great seafood throughout New England (just as you can throughout England!), from my home state of Connecticut, on Long Island sound, right up through Maine.
My favorite character in Tolkien's epic varied with my age. As a child, I think I may have loved Legolas as much as my sister did; I also loved Eowyn. Then Aragorn was my favorite, and then Faramir, whom I still love (I still love Eowyn, too). But, nowadays, Sam Gamgee is my hero.
