It's not a lighthouse but it is quite a production and a very difficult job... They moved 400 year old Old Glory today!!
Onward to The Land of the Midnight Sun!

It's not a lighthouse, but the procedure to move it isn't a whole lot different.

Very interesting...I never knew you could move large trees...it makes sense, but I never thought it possible.

Wow! That was quite a project. I hate to think what the final cost will be. Bob
