Forgotten Memories

Even the memories of this old mountain corner grocery store are forgotten. Not many people left around here speaks of the times when mining was not only the bread and butter, but also the way many men lost their lives just 2 miles from this location. When this store was built, mining companies were not regulated with safety laws and regulations as they are today and daddy never coming back home was a very common occasion.

 

I tried my best with this photo to bring back a bit of the beauty, life and heavenly glory there once was in this community.
