My first encounter with a Gnome was a surprise to say the least. It took me several days to recover from the sight of the really cute Forest Gnome. I have to admit that I did not quite believe yet. The more I thought of the fleeting glimpse the more I came to realize that I had not in fact seen anything. I had been just a figment of my imagination.
