GOLDEN HISTORY MOMENT

*Refreshment shop on Lookout Mountain (with bear) – enlarge*

I recently bought this postcard showing a refreshment shop on Lookout Mountain. I don’t have a story about it, but I do like the visiting horses and the bear on the porch!

*The reservoir (dry, in this Google Satellite image) is near the Buffalo Bill Museum and the antennas – enlarge*

I asked Larry McInroy, who grew up on Lookout Mountain, if he remembered the building. He did, and said it was located a bit north of the reservoir. He said it was there for many years but is gone now.

Thanks to the Golden History Museum for providing the online cache of historic Transcripts, and to the Golden Transcript for documenting our history since 1866!
