Am I Living in the Shire?

Over the past few days I have noticed something really interested about some of the elderly women in Galway. There are numerous that could easily pass as hobbits due to their height and cuteness! It has led me to wonder if perhaps Ireland is actually the Shire from Lord of the Rings. I do have to admit that I love it though...Whenever a little hobbit woman comes into the office I get a wonderful feeling of being tall, something that many of you will know I never really experience. So I must thank those genes that cause these little women to be so cute and tiny...it definitely makes my day!
