Luxury Home falling off of a cliff.....literally ! 

A luxury Lake Whitney home made headlines in Dallas. The home had started to collapse as the ground around it cracked!

Lake Whitney is south of Dallas about an hour. The lake is gorgeous with many beautiful cliffs. I have been to this lake several times for girls weekend.   Many years ago me and by friend Sylvia, jumped in a convertible and took off for a long girls weekend with another friend Denise. I will never forget that weekend as we ran out of gas in the boat and it was the weekend Princess Diana was killed!

Needless to say, I was shocked as I saw the home atop one of Lake Whitney's beautiful cliffs, literally falling off the cliff on the local news the other day. The ground cracked and the whole side of the cliff is falling.  We have had a sever drought in Texas which could have led to this cracking.

 

I can only imagine how the owners feel. To build a beautiful dream home overlooking a gorgeous lake,  only to have it crumble before their very eyes. My only hope is their homeowner's insurance will cover the loss. The home was burned by the fire department in a contolled burn.

How sad that this would happen.  It reminds us of the power of nature.  I hope that the owners will rebound from this unfortunate event.
