Katrina. The quickest way for them to get out of their [FEMA] trailer and back into a new house is to move one in. But, the 100-mile route through post-Katrina New Orleans could destroy their new house. Abandoned cars, debris piles, bridges and low underpasses will force the mover to raise, lower and tilt the house to avoid every obstacle. A special one-of-a-kind hydraulic trailer is called in for the job, but will it deliver Meg & Marty's future home safely?" Of course it will, but I swear my jaw was on the floor throughout this entire episode. The truck they use to move the house is a modern miracle. It's like a hydraulic hopping car, but it's a HUGE flatbed truck that a house fits on. You really have to see it in action to be wowed, and you will be! Also, the couple are adorable. They have such an incredible attitude about demolishing their old house and trucking a new one 100 miles through hurricane ravaged New Orleans. The guy in charge of moving the house (see photo) is a sexy little dude with amazing confidence. He really directs the move like clockwork despite the constant stream of unexpected challenges. Put the rebroadcast on your calendar, and set your TiVo in May! Here's a tiny clip, but it's only a taste. You have to see this thing in action.Monday, March 10, 2008
