My friend Gene is living in a 10x16 hut with a four foot porch. I'm not sure why, but he's a writer and I guess writer's do stuff like that. He says at one point "our wants far exceed our needs." Of course he's right. But it's all a matter of environment. I'm in the middle of a terrific project right now. Unfortunately, I can't say any more because of non disclosure. But I'm exceedingly happy about it. It's the first time I've done this type of work and it's a pretty big deal
