The wife and I just bought a home in this town. The people are just so nice and welcoming. Even the teenagers are respectful and so helpful (a lot you don’t see anymore). Can not wait until we are living there full time.

I’m excited for you and excited for Gloster. There was a time I’d have written the town off. It got very bleak for several years there. It looks like it’s experiencing a rebirth and in thrilled about it. No matter where I go that little town is my town. I hope you make it yours.

@@caseycampbell6000 oh yes. We have officially moved here full time since July 1st. It has been so great. I know it’s a small town away from a lot and that’s what we wanted, but it also isn’t really to far from things at the same time. It is just great to get back to throwing your hand up to someone you down know and they wave right back. The family and I are very grateful the good Lord has put us here.

Looks are deceiving

[@rosiemcnaughton9933]

I agree that this is a nice, clean, well kept up place. Even though there are a lot of empty businesses, there are a lot of nice buildings and really nice houses.

New lumber yard being built there now. It should come back to life. The last plant closed many years ago, Georgia Pacific. It employed a lot of the town. There were 3 grocery stores there at one time, and two car dealerships.

I grew up there. I have walked, biked and driven every inch of it since I was big enough to walk. I’ve been gone a long time now, living out west now, so this brought back so many memories. The Gloster I grew up in is gone. It was Mayberry in the early eighties, man. We lost the Georgia Pacific mill and the railroad and Gloster died. I’m so glad to see its rebirth.

Our family grew up in Gloster and many of our ancestors found their resting place in the area. The “W” in Arthur’s middle name stands for Winston; I wrote a research paper about him long ago. You did a great job! Thank you.

Great Video of this town. I have been reading about a new lumber industry being built that you mentioned in this town & also news the railroad will be brought back to serve the new industry, hope you might have more videos on this area. Thanks for sharing this town.

[@exploringthesouth975]

Appreciate it. Thanks for checking out the video.

It was originally a town built on a railroad line. The hill he was going down on Main Street used to have a depot on the rigth. The plywood plant (Georgia Pacific) shut down and there was no need for the railroad after that. Well, a little deeper than that, but there was a railroad there before.

[@frankwoods4532]

Ha Ed, did you forget yourself when you said oh 💩.😀😃Just teasing Bro!

[@exploringthesouth975]

LOL. Yeah, I got a little excited to see the Piggly Wiggly. Brought back a lot of memories.

[@rtshort]

It used to be at the end of Main Street (The direction you were going on the right on the corner across from the Post Office). The owner died and someone opened it back up as "The Grocery Store". It's fairly new where it is now. That building used to be a dollar store.
