Thanks to writer Bill Crider (of Sheriff Rhodes' fame!) for finding this series!

photo 11 must be of the area in New Zealand where Hobbiton was filmed, as Sarehole Mill is in a small green area surrounded by dense housing (and in Google Earth you can spend way too much time examining Sarehole, and then off to Oxford to see his two homes, the Eagle and Child pub, and even his gravesite to the north).
