A few weeks ago a trailer burned here in the park. There was a tragic loss of some pets but the tenant was at work. It seems the park owner has now hired some of the locals to demolish the trailer. I am amazed at the speed at which it is progressing. They are tearing it down by hand and carting off the material in a pickup truck. A little over a week ago it was a complete single-wide 50 foot trailer with just the end burned but still had the roof intact and all the walls except for the end wall and the front side of that room was gone.

It just seems like quite a feat to dismantle an entire trailer and move it with just a pickup truck. I think there are only 3 of them working on it. A small stature man, the park owner who is elderly, and a guy with a prosthetic leg. I hope they are getting paid decent, of course the guy paying is the same man who hires someone to scrape off the tops of the Septic tanks into the pickup you see in the picture, to avoid cost of a pumper truck.

It lends new meaning to “I helped someone move this week”.
