Yeah, because Allstate will just drop off another one-of-250 car by the end of the week.

 

Kudos to the ingenuity. I'm sure that was a spur-of-the-moment stroke of genius.

That house seems to be raised a decent amount off the ground. Almost as if they purposefully built it that way. Interesting. Edited by Spam

No, it was an accident it was built high. Someone just couldn't read plans and it ended up that high by mistake.

Is everyone kidding? I can't tell lol

 

You cannot have living space under the flood plain. When you are that close to the water you can bet that you'll be up pretty high.

 

Example. We recently had a apartment / garage renovation in the middle of Lancaster and couldn't rebuild the bottom apartment due to it being in the flood plain... It is now just a garage. There was no water around it at all.

"German engineering meets American ingenuity. During the Oakland wildfires, a guy who had two Porsches saved them both by driving one a couple blocks, running back for the other one, driving it two blocks past the first one, running back and driving the first one two blocks past the second, and on and on until both were out of danger.

 

:eek: Like a BAWSSSS!
