I got to see my boss’s house moved with an old Mac truck when I was a teenager.

My grandparents gave their house to a neighbor when I was a kid. I remember climbing around underneath it that night after they had it ready to go, probably not the smartest thing I’ve done 😂

That same show with the half scale pulling a “house” moved a local church in with I believe 2 steam engines. I know there is video out there somewhere but think it might all be on VHS…

This was somewhat common back in the day, but I’m surprised to see it now.
