Advice The Home Improvement/Automation Thread

Between Christmas, father's day and a birthday, I have 9 Ryobi lithium 18v batteries. 4 are the high capacity. My home doesn't need that much improvement.
I do have the Ryobi lantern though.
The combo is great for power outages.

The bluff in my backyard goes up at about a 30 degree angle.
Should I build a Hobbit Hole?

You should - run out some electricity and it would be a real man-cave. And fix that grass - damn does your lawn look bad on Google Earth!

I don't doubt it LOL. My lawn is unmowed most of the time so if there is an image on Google Earth of that property, it has to be in its unkempt state.

More likely years old. I like looking at GE once in a while, just to reminisce. No street view due to private drive.

We over do things into the ground before moving on, for sure.

I want one of those hole houses that's like a quonset hut built into a hill. They maintain like 55F all the time before the hand of man gets involved, like a giant root cellar.

Would need some escape tunnels out the back and sides though. Would feel trapped in a hole with only one way in and out.

Grandparents had one back in Czechoslovakia, they carved it into a sandstone bluff over a few generations and fit it with nice barn doors. They would cut ice down at the lake in the winter and pack it about half full. They ran the town butcher shop and that cave-barn was their ace in the hole.
