Removing an Old Mobile Home – Part One
As I turned onto our street, I could see that the trucks were removing the old mobile home. Hooray! One side of the coach had already been pulled onto the street. The second side was being maneuvered onto the back of a truck. This all happened very fast. It was about 10 mins before the second side of the home was pulled completely onto the street.
I feel so lucky to have arrived at the property in time to capture this amazing process, in photos, for my husband who was out of the country for work.
As the trucks pulled away down the road I felt a rush of excitement trickle through my veins. The removal of this old mobile home is yet another large step toward simplifying our lives and beginning our next chapter in our new custom mobile home. I stared in awe at the now empty lot and imagined what the new coach will look like.
When I drove away, I pulled out of our community and onto our main canyon road. Way in front of me I could see the mobile home caravanning toward the freeway. I sped up a bit so that I could join it’s procession out of the canyon that was home to this coach for the last 40 years. What a spectacular moment. The home is to be repurposed and given to a family who needs a dwelling down in Mexico. So all in all, everyone wins. This old mobile home, that had lived out it’s glory days here in our canyon, will have it’s own renewal. Pages are turning, chapters are ending and beginning, all is good. Goodbye old coach! May your story get sweeter as I know ours will.
