Not quite a hobbit hole, but pretty comfy. :-)

Nope. ...but after reading this I'm thinking about finishing the hole I started in my backyard last summer.

I thought that was a pretty cool project.

Although it does not really need camouflaging for deer, if the thing is there year around, they get used to it and consider it to be just part of the landscape.

Is yours going to be that ambitious?

There must not be a lot to do down in Louisiana. His wife is cute though...and apparently a very patient woman with a good sense of humor.

That's what I thought. Interesting, funny, site tho. Shows what an American can do with enough time, a shovel, and a gun.

Cute kid.

A friend of mine and his wife were looking for a house to buy. One they had looked at had what looked like a decent shed in the backyard. The only thing inside the shed was a doorway to a staircase. You go down the stairs and enter a one-hundred yard underground firing range made of very large culverts. It was set up with lights, cameras, furniture, all the niceties. Very clean and dry. My friend drooled over it and was just sick because the whole place was out of their price range.

Is this guy a freeper? He should be. If you read his daughter's web page he's got a great sense of humor (and a very patient understanding wife)

I don't remember what set me off on this venture at this time but when I was a kid we would dig lots of holes and tunnels and cover them with scrap wood and dirt and use them as hide outs and camps.

That was me, my brother and our friends. We had hole forts all over the field behind our house.
