E15 1930's General Store is OPENED for the First Time in Years after closing in 1991

Thank you for keeping America's real past alive.!

These places MATTER. They're part of your great country's history and should be listed and preserved, once they're gone they're gone, and just a memory remains, which itself will fade away. I live in the UK, and the village shop and corner shop have all but disappeared, knocked down and re-developed, usually to make way for housing estates. They call it 'progress' I call it a great shame. Love these videos.

[@solitarybee3714]

My husband & I just finished watching your program and really enjoyed it all! He is 81, I'm 79 - he was born in Arkansas but got to Texas as fast as he could. I'm born & bred in west Texas, so we married while still in high school. Ran off to Ojinaga, Mexico at 16 & 18 to be married by a justice of the peace, no we were not expecting a baby. Had our first of two children after 2 yrs of marriage. Now, I've told you way more than you care to know, lol. We plan to watch more of your postings and have subscribed to the channel. Come visit Texas sometime!

When you suggested having a yard sale, my heart jumped into my throat. Then, he said," nobody'd want to buy any of that stuff, I thought , the items in this little store would sale out in the first hour! Please don't sell, but turn it into a museum. It'd be the perfect place for these up and coming generations to visit to see exactly how life was before computers and cell phones. Thank you for sharing this!

Just happened to run across this video. Thank you for documenting and preserving the history of this gentleman and times gone by. These newer generations dont have a clue about life, or the ways we grew up in. I used to sit for hours and hours listening to my grand father talk about life and the old ways, war, hard times, the depression, and the history of his family. It seems that we lost a lot of history because it wasnt preserved like this. I hope this gentleman is doing well, and please tell him thank you for allowing you time and access to preserve history.

I used to catch the school bus in a store like this in the early 1970’s in Caldwell County Kentucky. I loved the cooler drink machine. I’d use my dime just to be able to slide the drink out and use the bottle flip. A bottle of pop tasted better back then too. You really appreciated it as well.

The Store has been closed for 30 years but looks like Ralph has used it for storage for all his old household items appliances as he would buy new ones. I have 35 videos with Ralph make sure to check them all out. Thanks for your comment. John

@@theappalachianchannel there’s a few old stores here in Saltville Virginia if you’re ever near this way. Shoot me a message and I’ll send you some locations. One is the very first Food Country.
