From the March 23, 2000, Pagosa SUN — The Gomez Store is on a truck and bound for a new home. A Pagosa Junction landmark since 1911, the store leaves behind an old friend, the railroad water tower. In former times, Denver and Rio Grande Railroad trains chugged through Pagosa Junction. Passengers and local residents bartered with members of the Gomez family. The store with all of its contents has found a new home at the Fred Harman Art Museum in Pagosa Springs.
