Downsized and Proud of It
KPLU listeners Dave and Kathy Ferre in Salem, Oregon, share their small living strategy:

We are just completing the renovation of our Salem, OR home of 576 sq. feet.  For text and pictures:

We sold our 4-bedroom, 2-bath home and have been selling off furniture and other items to "fit" into this smaller space, which is easy to heat, to cool, and taxes are just over $800 a year. By doing most of the
renovations ourselves, we also saved a lot of money.

Thanks,
Dave and Kathy
