and a little concepting on "The Shire" to be built in Mississippi on Paul's property. He's hiring some bulldozers to scoop out areas to get things started. The sketches may look like chicken scratch, but the gist of it would be one main kitchen welcome room where there would be a stone hearth about waist high. when occupied, there would be a constant fire and would direct the passage of heat out of the interior up through a vent. would also be used for hot water, baking, food, and warmth. this is the heart, the hearth, of the home. coves would branch out to individual living quarters or other rooms like an entertainment/media room or bathroom.Just ideas on paper now.
