Lost Mountain Store


Lost Mountain is a mountain that when you are miles away you can see it, but when you are on it you think it disappeared.   We used to drop by the store when we went to our friend Larry's lake, less than a mile away.  The owner was Newt.  He and his sister lived in the house behind the store.  Newt always had time to talk.    The Lost Mountain Store was far from anything.  Being so far out, for some it looked like a good place to rob.  Their mistake.  Newt ended more than one hold-up man's life.   Now, the store is a bank, on the edge of parking lot of a shopping center.
