Many people ask if we ever look at a building and think to ourselves, “Man this just can’t be moved,” and our answer is no almost every time. The one exception to this answer is a move we made up in the mountains. This move was near to the impossible side, but that did not stop us, we still dove right in and began to work at it. Seven cabins were to be moved half a mile over. A half a mile doesn’t seem that far, well unless you are moving seven log cabins it does. The distance of the move was not our biggest concern, nor the number of cabins, but rather the location. The cabins were being moved on the side of a mountain, and this mountain was extremely steep. So steep that the front of the 40-foot house was sitting on the ground while the back was sitting 21 feet off the ground. To make this move we had to use every trick we had in our book, as well as come up with some new ones. Using our old and new tricks we were able to get the job done and appreciate a little bit more the ease of some of the other jobs we have done. At the end of the day we were relieved, as well as feeling accomplished of the job we had just completed.
