re: Smells like BS? Mother and kids built their own house by watching YouTube

Just because I don't like to read something and automatically think its true I will say there is a chance the story is not 100% accurate especially because of the size of the house, however; there was a time when most people built their homes.

When my grandpa came back from WWII, my grandmother was pregnant for their first child. Being a devout Catholic, my grandpa planned on having a large family (which he ended up having.. He had 8 kids) so he built a two story house.. He would come home from work and work on it until it got dark and worked on it on the weekends. It took him about two years to build, but this is the house he built.. I think he finished it in 1949.



No one lives in it anymore and I think they are trying to sell it with the land (whoever buys it will likely only want the land)... And this was way before youtube.. so..
