Large load braves Moose Jaw traffic to reach its destination

The large bungalow took up the entire width of the highway on its winding route into the city

Cal Rader watched his home travel from Parkbeg to here in Moose Jaw.

Your eyes have not deceived you: that was a house moving through Moose Jaw on July 17, heading towards its new location.

The large load took up some space as it traveled slowly down Caribou St. E, destined for a new home in the city. 

Owner Cal Rader followed behind, pleased to see the bungalow home reach it's destination late in the afternoon. He originally built the house in 2000 on his yard, 12 miles north of Parkbeg, and decided it was worth bringing with him when he and his wife chose to move to Moose Jaw. 

Though the home’s journey did it’s best to avoid disrupting traffic, it had a police escort blocking the road ahead as it made it's way down Highway 42 and over, since the house itself is as wide as the highway.

A sight like this one was sure to turn a few heads as it meandered by, and Rader is glad to see the house finally settled in place.
