The Tiny Home movement advocates for living simply in small homes. One variation includes tiny homes on wheels (a more permanent alternative to the traditional travel trailer). While we will not downsize to this level, our next home is going to be substantially smaller than our current one, perhaps one fifth the size.  This afternoon Jeanine and I attended a Tiny Home show on the grounds of the Emerson Umbrella and listened to life style converts describe their experiences. Less is often more, a lesson we are slowly learning.

Our home in Indianapolis (above-side view) was twice the size of our current home in Concord so we are already moving in the right direction.
