23-acre body of water disappears
Today's weird 23 story brought to you by MSNBC (though I got to it a little late):
'WILDWOOD, Mo. - To folks around Wildwood, it is nothing but freaky: an entire 23-acre lake vanished in a matter of days, as if someone pulled the plug on a bathtub.
Lake Chesterfield went down a sinkhole this week, leaving homeowners in this affluent St. Louis suburb wondering if their property values disappeared along with their lakeside views.
�It�s real creepy,� said Donna Ripp, who lives near what had been Lake Chesterfield. �That lake was 23 acres � no small lake. And to wake up one morning, drive by and it�s gone?�' (MSNBC article via One More Day...)
