Monday Muse - The One with the Hobbit Hole

Its no secret to most people that I would like to visit the Shire...

You know, the place where the Hobbits live...


Even tho, it looks more like this in real life...


Even though sheep have moved in and are calling it their own.

The fact that there will be a Hobbit movie and that they have, once again, created a shire for the movie has done nothing to assuage my desire.

Then I stumbled across the story photographer Simon Dale who built his own little Hobbit house, his one-man Shire. Oh sure, he was all into getting rid of his mortgage, building a suitable home on a budget and doing it green and all that. Noble to be sure...

But what I'm most impressed with is how much it looks like a place Bilbo would love.



Simple muse today...who has done what you want to do? Who has done it in a way that you admire? In a way that makes you believe maybe someday YOU could do it???

Peace, ya'll!!
