Really amazed at how intact and untouched everything is. You'd think after 30 years, someone might have wanted to break in. With a little bit of dusting and cleaning, this store looks like it can still run today as is.

I read in the comments he is 95 yrs old...he looks great how lucky is his family to still have him with them...priceless

When you suggested having a yard sale, my heart jumped into my throat.

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.

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.

My Father used to tell me … “If I keep my mouth shut and my eyes and ears open, I might learn something” So true…

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!

Awesome old time machine you stepped into. Glad I ran across your channel. I was born and raised in Southern West Virginia. So I relate to a lot of what you post. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas 🎄

I'm home with COVID and have really enjoyed this and the stories

I have never seen a place like this in my life. I couldn't imagine shopping in there but it would be fun to clean it all up and reorganize it and reopen it to see if people will come and shop the vintage items.
