I think I'd get that house up on skids, move the 'ring' into one pile, and put the house on TOP of it...J Miller wrote:THAT took a lot of work! I hope his dam holds. After the flood recedes I think I'd leave it and just open up a drive way through it. Be a lot less work next time.
Yeah, but these days, everyone on 'high ground' will have to pay taxes or borrow money from China in their grandkid's names, to "bail out" the flood victims...RIHMFIRE wrote:...almost all of the plantation homes

Yup... Then when the flat-landers (flood victims) finally get things back to normal, they'll be asked to pay taxes or borrow money from China to "bail out" the high-grounders when the wild fires burn them out later on into the summer.AJMD429 wrote:Yeah, but these days, everyone on 'high ground' will have to pay taxes or borrow money from China in their grandkid's names, to "bail out" the flood victims...RIHMFIRE wrote:...almost all of the plantation homes

yeah that's the right idea. I think a house built on a spud barge would be perfect. the services can be hooked up with flexible lines until the outhouse clears.....The old timers built their shacks on cypress logs. They just floated up when it flooded and went back down with the water.
