Moose Mt Rendition of "Up"

After much waiting for the road restrictions to lift, we're finally on our way to moving house v1 to its new location in order to make way for excavation and construction of house v2...  I'm waaaay behind on the photos and updates so I'll start with today and work backwards...

We're finally off the ground!  The engineers have spent the day jacking the house up little by little with bladders (like the one shown here) and support blocks.  This picture is the back of the house (north side).

And here's the south side, 7 courses off the ground...

All in all, we're elevated about 2ft.  This original support post was left in place for now.

Here's the east side view...

With close-up... We have steel I-beams holding everything up and keeping it all together.

The house hasn't been this level since we've moved in! (notice the gap at the bottom of the door...)

And here's the front view yesterday evening - original posts still in place, just starting to place the I-beams and support towers.

Porch is off and I-beams delivered...
