You see many IGA's in small towns all over the east coast and probably the Midwest. There are other grocery chains (independently owned) also out their. Names like Shurfine, Big M, and on and on. They fill the nitch in many towns that wouldn't have a grocery store with a distribution center for the stores. Many have store brands. And of course there is always Dollar General that has thousands of stores, but isn't really just a grocery store but a "dollar" store also.

In my hometown, they built an IGA to replace the A&P that had closed. The local unions protested because they didn't use union workers to build it and they weren't planning on staffing it with unionized workers. The night before the grand opening, it mysteriously burned to the ground.

Thanks so much for doing this and, may I say, it is very clear from your demeanor, your voice and your eyes that you are indeed enjoying yourself very much! There was awhile there when you were quite clearly unhappy and I am very delighted to see you’ve bounced back and are having fun once again. And did you see what I saw at the end of the vlog? YES!

Bellville is actually spelled BELLVILLE. I live here with my wife & family, and she was born and raised here. In fact, she is a daughter of Bernie, who owns the general store. When our train depot was refurbished for historical preservation, we used one of the oldest photographs of the original building that we could find. The depot was erected before the city was actually chartered by the state of Georgia. Back then, it was a small community centered around the train tracks, and was commonly referred to as Belleville (presumably owing to the large Bell family of farmers in the area at the time). We're not sure who made the original sign on the depot, but it was restored to historic accuracy, too. Not a current misspelling, but a tribute to and reminder of days gone by. I enjoyed your video! It's always interesting to hear the impressions of folks passing through. You should have stopped inside Bernie's for a sausage dog and another cup of coffee. It's Just About Perfect!

And how long would the glass windows in that theater ticket booth stay intact in a city? Love these backyard adventures with you and looking forward to more.

While I’m not originally from the area, I do live a few short miles east of Statesboro, just outside the small town of Brooklet. Living in the area now for 30 years, I’m familiar with much of it, but you have opened my eyes even more by adding the little tidbits of information about each area, that I did not know. By the way, the garden you spoke of and thought had lettuce in it, well actually that was either turnip or mustard greens. You mentioned at one time you travelled with a band. I’m curious as to what band it might have been and if you all had any hits. Let us know more about this when you can. Lastly, I retired 6 months ago and also enjoy traveling to out of the way areas as well. Take care and I’ll be looking forward to seeing many more of your videos.

Adam!!! Did you realize in Statesboro that you were walking all around where the movie Now and Then was filmed in the mid 90s? The courthouse was white back then and appears in a scene with a wedding. The building in your shot showing the courthouse just to the right was the “Shelby Library “. There was a vacant building used as the luncheonette. The side of some of the buildings were painted to be sears and various other things. That one little street you were on is used throughout the movie. I live in Vidalia about an hour away and as a teenager had no idea a movie was even being made back then. Once I went to college I ended up living in a loft across from the courthouse and at that time the door was still painted on the “library” to say Shelby. That was my view every day.

I bought a Claxton Fruitcake a few weeks ago out of nostalgia - and it was DELICIOUS! Even better than I remember.

There are lots of murals in the central Georgia area. I did a video on some in east central and found a man in Atlanta that paints them as the Georgia mural trail . Enjoy , most small towns in Georgia has at least one Coco-cola mural !

Love your videos. I go along with you on my exercise bike, it keeps me motivated. I can't get out much due to oxygen use. I especially love it when you talk to cows, I talk to them too.♥️

Work in Claxton. Live about an hour away, but love the community so much that I commute. Alot of my co-workers commute from Statesboro, Savannah, and surrounding areas because we all love that friendly little community. 😍

Adam, you need to check out the kaolin mines in this area (Columbus to Augusta). Where you are at was once the ocean line before Florida attached to the land. Kaolin pockets were formed from the ancient beaches.

What are in the mines, if you don't mind me asking?

Kaolin is a white clay.

Kaolin is the main ingredient in Kaopectate. At the Civil War prisoner of War camp in Andersonville, GA most of the prisoners died due to dysentery; however, unbeknownst to them, they were on top of a huge Kaolin mine so all they would have had to do would have been eat the dirt and many would have been saved. Such a tragedy.

Used to go around the old kaolin mines and find sharks teeth and fossils. What makes it interesting is that you are over 100 miles from the coast.

So much fun this vid! I was already cracking up at the start there with your passing shot of the intersection on Main St. I wish I could have been in the room when someone told street sign guy that he would have to go back AGAIN and make a SOUTH Main St sign, too, haha. As the great Stan Lee used to say: "Onward and upward! Excelsior!"

Really enjoying these videos. My family is from the south (Arkansas), and I visited my father who was living in a small southern town and I remember how quiet it was. Peaceful. I always enjoy hearing the birds singing In your videos.
