Randy Boyd's father is building some kind of hobbit land in South Knoxville called "Ancient Lore Village" with over 150 homes and treehouses based on his Tolkien knock-off book The Bobbins – Outcast to the Inner Earth:lol:

Don’t you mean moving to the area?  

Maybe they can all live in the imitation Shire before it’s featured on “Mysteries of the Abandoned” in a few years.

 As long as they’re headed towards your end of the state and not mine! 😆

I'm sure Chapman and John Sevier can handle an extra 18000 cars per month.

Or 15 years of road widening

I'll have you know cars are not allowed at this majestic marriott .

Thou shall watch for wooden cart pulled by trusty steed or perhaps oxen 😁

Forty acres seems like a small tract for 150 houses, unless they are to be small for small people. Are the tree houses to be built in trees?

Add to that no concrete and no electricity so the building process alone ought to be a treat to watch lol.

I have several friends in that area that are already hating it and him.

That's a 1/4 acre per lot in conventional terms.  Becoming the norm in many new subdivisions.  This thing however, defies convention.
