Sis got a part-time job at Lake Lure, Chimney Rock area as a tour guide. This was so she could make some money to help send El Moe to brain surgeon college. Anyway, one day as she was showing some tourist the mountainside near a deep gorge, a car swerved around the curve and ran off the mountain. As the tourist watched the car go down the mountainside, one asked Sis, “Ma’am, how often does a car go over the mountainside?” Sis answered, “Just once mister, just once!!”
