Though Daniella was born in New York and has lived in a couple of other states, Mississippi has been her home for more than 30 years. After graduating from the University of Southern Mississippi, Daniella began to hone her writing skills through various internships. In the years since, she’s had the privilege of having her articles appear in several publications, such as the Mississippi-based Parents & Kids Magazine. She’s also had the honor of interviewing actress Sela Ward for The Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Experience.
Some things aren’t quite what they seem. Rock in the House isn’t one of them. In fact, it’s exactly as the name implies – a rock in a house. And while that may not seem like headline-making news, the boulder-embedded abode is rather interesting. Read on to learn all about this architectural anomaly. Take a look:
You’ll find Rock in the House in Fountain City, a small town in Buffalo County.
It’s actually about 100 miles northwest of the more famous, similarly-named House on the Rock. However, aside from the near-identical monikers, the two don’t have much else in common.
Luckily, the Andersons escaped unharmed - physically, that is. The couple was understandably shaken up after the incident and decided to move soon after.
In addition to the notes, there are newspaper clippings, which provide info about the home as well as past Fountain City disasters, including an incident in 1901, when a boulder crashed into the house that previously stood at the site.
