TSmith274; Thanks for sharing. The new mobile home looks nice. By the way the metal frame on your shop held up I think that's what I might have rebuilt my camp with. LOL

Looking good, TSmith. Let's pray you never have to rebuild again! I still just shake my head in amazement and sadness at the destruction I've seen from Katrina and Rita.

A LOT of people are doing that actually. Its a great solution really. Your piers are built in... when you slap it all together you have an elevated home. I was going to go that route, but I was told I'd have to drive pilings, etc... So, just went back with this home and insured it. Hopefully I won't need the insurance.
