Year long stops?
I got the Letters of JRRT at the library
 , and have been reading them in pure delight. In letter 25, JRR says that "the tale halted in the telling for about a year at two separate points": One of these points, I believe, is at the end, before Balin comes to visit him. When is the other? Is it after the Battle of Five Armies, when he's at Rivendell?
