George Connors was loved by all who knew him. Unusually tall, with an easy smile, he was the only house mover in the area. Most of his projects were comparable to some you see documented on History Channel. He had state of the art equipment & used it with a level of skill you wouldn't expect from a woodchuck Vermonter.
He once had a LOW budget move. A young couple had bought a little 24' X 48' ranch for $1. It had to be moved.
Well over the legal limit in height, 3 times the legal in width, they moved in the middle of the night. Avoiding the main roads, they did it over a series of dirt roads. They built a little deck on the roof to safely stand on. George up top with chain saw, & a few other tools, his son driving, they travelled 25 miles in darkness.
The back roads minimized the overhead wires, eliminated the underpasses, mostly tree branches to worry about & none of them big at center of road.
