[QUOTE="onpoint!, post: 238564, member: 2703"] Several years ago the bay near Audubon's Cabin Site was very heavy with lots snow and contained a fair number of houses. i showed up early and started punching holes outside while the heater warmed up the shack. Water started gushing up like ol' Faithful, eventually putting more than a foot of water inside my house (and others, I'm sure). Had to stop fishing and started to prepare my house to leave the lake, lest it start to freeze solid. First, my house isn't easy to package on a warm day - no 'cables/winches' - but i was busy for a couple of hours with the handyman jack (we had nicknamed the house "widow-maker"), knee-deep in water, with the mechanism/spring freezing with every turn. Paid a guy with a plow to help make a path in the snow once i was finally able to get it hitched up, thought i was gonna die of a heart attack before i was able to pull it off. We reached a few people to come retrieve their houses and I think most folks found a way to get their house off that day, but some of those places became one with the lake... Anyone remember that?
