Underhill

Finally, the hobbit-hole has a hill over it! A fellow hobbit came over with his hobbit-sized loader and moved tons over it.  Now it really looks like a hill--albeit a bare, rocky one.  I'm going to get some local boys to come over and help me shape it, clear off the larger rocks, put topsoil over it, and lay sod. Oh yeah, and I need to set up some sprinklers somewhere in there so that I don't just grow a yellow weedpatch.

  1. Yay!!! You have almost completely finished it! I am very thrilled with your accomplishment! Now you will have the timeless memory and the fruit of your labor, and us readers will have the knowledge that at least one Tolkien fan fulfilled a dream that I'm sure most of us have had. I would very much like to see the garden I'm sure that will be made around it! ;D
