[AT] Homebuilding a trailer

[Cecil Bearden]

I will still have to work some, I got used to eating regular and I hate 
to give up the habit.  However I am working with a neighbor on 
installing direct exchange heat pump systems.  I have the drilling 
experience and he has the equipment.  I can work about 2 days a week and 
make more than what I retired at.  Direct exchange heat pumps are really 
the way to go.  a 2000  sq ft house in colorado will heat and cool for 
an average of  $85 per month.    I have a  indirect system here,  it is 
one of the first  installed in OKlahoma....
