The Lost Mountain Store<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hwy 176 and Dallas Highway, Georgia<\/p>\n

Located\u00a0west of Marietta, Georgia there is a mountain that is called “Lost Mountain”, because you can see it in the distance, but when you get there, it’s gone. There is an old general store that has been there since about 1900.\u00a0\u00a0I have heard\u00a0all kinds of tails about the store and its owner, but like many stories from the past,\u00a0I am not sure how many are true, or how many were made up.<\/p>\n

Some of those stories include, that he claimed to have fresh vegetables, which he grew in his own fields, but actually the truck came in late at night with deliveries, so nobody could see.\u00a0 Another story was told about photographers were run off by the owner with a shotgun, or he wanted to charge them for taking photos of his store.\u00a0 I was able to photograph the store without incident.<\/p>\n

The painting that I did of the store, was quite popular in the area, as was other paintings from artists who lived nearby. The store was too close to the road when they were widening it and were planning to demolish the store.\u00a0 With a lot of input from the community, the building was moved back far enough to save it from being destroyed.\u00a0 The store now sits at the edge of a shopping center for all to see.<\/p>\n
