Could it be?

Could this one trailer have caused all of this?

It's our theory that this trailer hit our garage first, knocking it off the foundation, came around again and made the hole in our roof. From there it hit the corner of our neighbor's house, bounced off their railing and finally hit the house on the west of them, making it pancake. It ended up there.

Of course, it's all speculation but from the lumber in our ceiling we know that something went through there. There is paint transfer on the railing next door.

The trailer was parked next to the house next door. His wife had been telling him to get rid of it for a few weeks! It was his partners trailer and they had used it for moving! If the trailer hadn't come through we probably would have suffered some major roof damage and possibly some water damage, but nothing as severe as we have! I'm not real fond of that trailer I'll tell you!

Hi Guys,

We are glad to hear that your reconstruction is underway! We know you will be happy to get it all done and moved in. That is amazing about the trailer - The movies show big things flying thru the air, but I didn't really think it happened.

Take care - Our Love to you both,
Linda and Andy

Now, if you can just get the trailer owner's insurance to help pick up some of the tab. That would be an amazingly good thing.
