Didn't know your house was damaged. Do they build new foundations & then
wheel the house into position or wheel the house out of the way before
repairing the existing foundations? Moving wooden houses to new locations is
not entirely fanciful - I remember a shot of a whole house on a big low-bed
being moved to a new location in the USA.

Subject: PESO: House on Wheels
A cellphone snapshot on my way home from the pool. This house is on the
corner at the end of our street and I've been watching with interest as they
jack it up to repair the earthquake-damaged foundations. Today I was
passing it on its other side and saw wheels.

They're just getting started with the repairs to our house - we moved into a
rental house the other day. A stressful and exhausting process even though
most of our possessions have been packed and moved into storage. Our
repairs are due to take about 5 weeks, then we get to move back. The upside
is that our house is completely empty so we get to have a good cleanout and
maybe rearrange a bit.
This is our first experience using a moving company to do all of our packing
and it's been really good. What's even better is that it's all being paid
for by insurance :) If I'd had my way I'd have told them to take everything
to Wanaka but reality had something else to say.
Cheers,
Dave
