I was 11 or 12 at the time. This guy my dad knew, bought a 2-story house that sat next to a swamp. He owned a lot about 2 miles down the road. He wanted the house moved. We jacked up the house put some 6 inch pipes under it. Rolled it onto railroad ties. We had 3 tractor's, 2 JD-A's and a JD-620. We started dragging it down the road. The RR ties started smoking real bad, dad thought we were going too burn the house down. He sent one of the guy's that was helping over to the farm to get a milk can full of water.We dumped water on the road in front of the RR ties as we pulled the house along. In the meantime, my brother was at the farm filling milk cans with water, the helper was was running back and forth with the pickup grabbing cans of water to dump on the road. That house still sets where we parked it all them years ago. I was going to tell ya about the time me dad moved a trailer house "not a camper" with his 1957 Chrysler 300C. I'll tell that another time.
