So, I would really, really love to be able to do my job outside. I love being /out/doors.

But I'm an engineer. My work is either at a powerful workstation computer (so, not portable) or hunched over dense calculus surrounded by stacks of loose paper that get destroyed by the slightest breeze.

Anybody else in this situation?

What I'd love, and what would more or less solve my problem (apart from a different career) would be to have some kind of shaded, walled garden, maybe with a retractable roof. It sounds like a pussy approach, but it's probably as close to actually working outside as I'll get.
