Tahilla Farm, Tarzan, Mr. H and a Birthday Wish
A few months ago I wrote about the movie inspiration I have been drawing on for Tahilla Farm.
Nancy Meyers came to mind with films such as.. Somethings's Gotta Give It's Complicated Baby Boom Father of the Bride The Holiday
You were all unanimous, I had made good choices…
But…
Mr. H read my post and went quiet...I could tell something was coming.
He said: "Actually, I had a few movies of my own in mind."
I said: "Ok, but please tell me the list does not involve Tarzan, I have outgrown treehouses.."
He said: "Better than that, the movies I have in mind for Tahilla Farm are…."
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Out of Africa Born Free Indochine The Addams Family
I said: "You do realise we own an antique farmhouse don’t you?"
He said: "We are renovating…let’s have fun."
I was: speechless
movies
I like to look for the positive in every situation and decided to think it through rationally, (as you do) starting with the female leads in his movie suggestions.

and I was baffled by The Addams Family.. but then again, maybe not. Afer all, we do have Fred as a result of one of Mr. H's expeditions. It has an Addams family quality to it.

After 27 years, life is anything but dull with Mr. H and I can tell you it has been a journey trying to work out where we are going with Tahilla Farm.
The latest "discussion" involved the master bedroom window. I often wonder what our architect must think of us…
Mrs. H suggested the bedroom window in the movie... Something's Gotta Give
Master and Commander
Our builder mentioned the challenge of a curve. The end result… we just received the price to build our fantasy window. We are back to the drawing board.
Maybe that treehouse isn't looking so bad after all?

I am writing this post by way of Tahilla Farm in New Hampshire and sending Happy Birthday wishes to Mr. H in Vietnam. Our travels often revolve around his birthday which means he often spends it on his own. This one is for you Mr. H…I have just the spot for that treehouse! ;)
Please join me in wishing Mr. H HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! xxx
