We sold a big wooden house which was moved from our grazing property onto the highway to a small village about 30km away.Lavender and Vanilla Friends of the Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05403418150146893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722776449751131260.post-58900444983178168772010-09-27T16:33:01.303-07:002010-09-27T16:33:01.303-07:00I've always wondered about having a house move...I've always wondered about having a house moved, especially whether its integrity was compromised by the juggling it would have done. It looks like this house suffered no damage by the move - if people lived in it.

I also love that they moved the house on the streetcar tracks. I can't think of a better way to do it! We have had some houses around here moved to make way for condo projects and what not. Usually the house is offered for free, but you have to move it. One of the biggest expenses is having utility lines taken down temporarily so the house doesn't run into them.<br />Great post!Christine H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09786732494496282743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4722776449751131260.post-5621972429777602462010-09-27T11:30:58.190-07:002010-09-27T11:30:58.190-07:00It Adds A Whole New Meaning To "Moving House&...It Adds A Whole New Meaning To "Moving House"!& How Great To Have The Newspaper Clipping!

That's very resourceful. Carol Ann was such a popular name in the 40's and 50's My sister's name is Carol Anne. I have two good friends by the same name. One spells it with an "e" at the end. The other does not. I get confused sending them cards. lol.<br />Yes I do remember the post about your uncle that saved his family, That was a great post.
