- I visited the Georgia towns of Haralson, Woodbury, Senoia, Sharpsburg and Granville.
These towns were filming locations for the zombie television show "The Walking Dead".

Having grown up in a small town in east central Georgia, I guarantee there are people there who love it. Being that close to Atlanta, yet not having to put up with Atlanta is a big advantage.
Lived in Atl many yrs, and fully agree with you. Look what happen downtown Atl yesterday.
Back at ya.
I just moved to the ATL area for months ago from California, and even I knew not to actually move into that city!
Facts
I live in a place like this & I dont have pookie as a neighbor with his 12 brothers & each with a different baby daddy, robbing up the place.
That little house you drove by is probably larger that a lot of apartments in NYC and a fraction of the cost.
17:40. Believe it or not, my Uncle Gene and Aunt Sally raised 6 kids in that little house. They slept in shifts in one bedroom and they all grew up to be good productive citizens. Aunt Sally passed on in 2006 but Uncle Gene is still living there!
That's amazing.
How do that many people sleep in shifts? If they have to sleep at night to go to school/work in the morning?
yeah imo Uncle Gene should have had his tubes tied. what a miserable stressful childhood that sounds like.
Wow
6 people x 8 hours of sleep each? How?
Maybe you mean your uncle and aunt slept in shifts?
These are farm towns. Not a city or suburbia. Most of rural America is like this. Some people don't want noise, lights, and constant stimulation of cities. Ga. and the south also had mill towns ,some thriving, until they shipped the jobs overseas. I was raised in big city, suburbia and live near a Ga. Mill town, by choice. Beautiful scenary, wildlife, ability to have animals....can go to nearby towns or cities if and when I want , need too...less taxes, not all the crime , sleep better, friendlier people, slower pace....
I'd rather be in small town America or in the country than any city.
Yes. I can't wait to get my land out of the city.
Yeah cities are too expensive
And cities are filled with people who think they are better than the average person, just trying to live a normal life. I mean, I drive a 20 year old Camry, and have just a small business, but I own my house, 10 thousand dollars cash. I just work on it myself. Most people I know, looks down on me like I'm dirt, but they do not own their car, house, and they are slaving away working for another man. Just sad
I agree 100% !
Where are you
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on My Mind👍👍
When I first found this channel about two months ago I thought it was such a boring subject. Well, I was wrong. I find myself looking forward to each new post and the statistics add dimension to each new town visited. I went back to when you sold your home to start this journey and thought to myself "That took some serious courage!" I agree with your kids! You two ARE crazy (in a good way).
Thank you for this, R B! :)
I felt the same but now I’m hooked.
Have been binge watching your videos here in Australia,love the way you show the towns and your commentary,also get a chuckle when you mention Australian Siri guiding you around the country,I think she sounds nice.
@@roystad8916 hey I also set my Siri to Australian 🎉
I'm hooked. Interesting and makes me grateful and blessed.
The bulk of the filming location for Fried Green Tomatoes was made in Juliette, GA. The Whistle Stop Cafe is still there and open to the public. It’s one of my favorite movies.
That's where I grew up
Parts were also filmed here in Senoia.
Very quaint small town.
I love it.
My job takes me to lots of small rural towns like these in south Georgia. I consider it one of the perks of the job, getting to see places like these. Places that might not be around anymore in another 50 years.
I currently live here in Senoia. Grew up in Atlanta GA. We just went through the tornado that he is talking about. The walking dead was filmed mostly in Senoia more so than Woodbury. Love living here in the country. It has grown a tremendous amount since the walking being filmed in senoia. I'm a true GA 🍑
Are you Kin to the barker guy that played in walking dead? I can’t remember his first name. I’ll have to go look. But he played in it around the same time as me. He was also a zombie
@@shenaphillips77 not kin to any of them
@@shenaphillips77We are filming a Kevin Bacon TV show in Senoia now where they filmed Walking Dead
I'm a former Augusta resident. I look forward to seeing what you uncover. It's got a lot -- from pretty rough to very nice. Enjoyed your tour of the area southwest of Atlanta. I need to see Senoia for myself.
As I watch these videos, it's a stark reminder of how hollowed out our working class and middle class has become. So much is either in terrible condition or places are ultra fancy. Decent, safe, in-between kinds of places -- so much more common when I was a boy -- are getting phased out.
And the rural/city divide just grows and grows.
Yep, the banking and big government cities/districts are hollowing out the middle class
I'm Augusta , Georgia born and raised . 64 years old . Trying to get back to the simpler life .. Technology is killing our children . It's a shame ..I bought a Radio Flyer wagon for my grand son . It's at least 50 years old . Hopefully I'll get to pull him to the store and push him home learning to navigate the wagon ..
Used to live in Augusta but now in North Augusta lol.
I am also Augusta born and raised, but life has me in WV currently.
I grew up behind Sconyers and went to Butler. 😊
My good sir a town that close to Atlanta in Georgia is NOT a "small" town. Montezuma, Fort Valley, or Hawkinsville GA are a couple of examples. Hell You could even go Wrens or Hephzibah and be more rural. Lol. Seriously though thanks for posting these videos. They just highlight how vast the U.S truly is (states especially) and how people and life in general DO exist outside of major cities. Lol. Thanks again.
I'll put my feet under their table and share a pillow .
Augusta, Georgia 8n the house .
Agreed. That town is literally a part of the Atlanta metropolitan area. I’ve done deliveries out that way and I live in Cobb County.
Yes! I’m from the area you mentioned first 😂
Shout out to Ft Valley my Alma Matter . We’re definitely about an hour and a half from Atlanta
I live in a rural small town and have never been happier. I wonder why anyone would want to live in a big city.
California bank rolls the rest of America
I live in a town of 10,000. Too big for me. Moving next year. Small town America, there's nothing better.
Money, opportunity. There's none in the country
@@ChicanoOne760
we only need food, power supply, filtered water, shelter
everything else is "wants"
People living in bigger cities, towns are so stressed out. It is really arat race, people are rude, traffic is horrendous, i can go on, give me a small town anyday.
I Love your shows! I never get to travel and now I get to see America in my own living room!
I love Lord Spoda so much I started making my own video's. Thanks for the inspiration Lord Spoda. 😃
I have lived in Haralson for 48 years, my intire life. My mother was Mayor at the time of this video. My uncle Jim Thompson owns Thompson Mercantile and most of old down town Haralson. Our little has grown in these last few years and changed. Some of the changes were good and some bad. The next town he went threw, Senoia is about 5 miles up the road. Change is not even the word I would use to describe what happened to Senoia. Its kinda sad really.
What happened to Senoia? We're in Henry County and are considering moving to that area.
Thanks so much for sharing. I'm from a small town in South GA, now in outskirts of ATL. Love the small town life and its simplicity ❤️ 💙
Fun Fact regarding Senoia: My maternal great-grandmother (Granny) had the telephone exchange for the town in the 1930's (40's?) in her house! Yes, Ma Bell installed the switchboard in the house and Granny was the primary operator at the exchange. We have a picture in the family album of the front of the house with a "Telephone Office" sign on the steps leading up to the switchboard room.
I love Haralson, I've lived here for 4 1/2 years
@@theresatramble3906 Great area! Grew up in Columbus and Athens but left GA for military service. Thought about moving back though.
@@theresatramble3906 Amazing "Authentic" Mexican Cantina in Haralson. (I live about 20 miles south.)
My wife's grandmother did Exactly the same thing for Ma Bell out of her livingroom in one of the northern Chicago suburbs. You won't get that sort of back-story just driving through small towns, handing out judgements. FWW. I
@@BruceWSims That's interesting hearing about this from someone else. I would like to find out more about how many of these in-house telephone exchanges there were back then. Your response now makes me interested in searching the web for more information on the history of these exchanges and when they were discontinued. Thanks!
This is a great channel. I'm from New Zealand, and find these videos fascinating. The only things missing are grass and people. And Siri didn't sound Australian. The Gary visit was amazing.
Cool that you were highlighting some Georgia towns! I’m a Georgia Peach myself. Born in East Atlanta almost 54 years ago and reside in McDonough Georgia now. We do have some beautiful towns! Thank you! 🙏🏻🍑
@Kelly Grubbs .. hey neighbor! 👋..here in Stockbridge
Great video! I was a big fan of the walking dead. Some of these towns look like you stepped back in time. Love it! Zombies and tornadoes. Glad you made it out of there safely
I'm starting to like GA... Thanks again for sharing the videos with us. :)
Thanks for sharing America's backyard. Lewis Grizzard centered a lot of his stories around Newnan Ga. Lived for a bit in LaGrange and just doing so catch-up. Stay safe and off the interstates.
My cousin Maryella was written about often in her books. She tutored English and writing.
You're in suburbia Atlanta . Many people work in Atlanta and live in that area. Enjoy your videos and the effort it takes for you.
Enjoyed the video. I've toured these places as well. Big Walking Dead fan. I live in rural South GA. The only thing is you may want to choose your wording a little better when showing people's homes and making comments about them. I'm sure you don't mean any harm but when you show someone's residence and say something like " boy doesn't this neighborhood look like the apocalypse has already happened".... these folks are doing the best they can with what they have. Rural communities , no matter what state, are not very worried about material wealth and big showy things. Family and community are more important. Have fun , keep traveling.
I lived in GA most of my life I left over 20 years ago to join the military. I've never heard of these towns. But GA is the largest state (land area) east of the Mississippi River. Thanks for the tour of small town GA!
Bigger than Florida?
@@westmax8491 Florida definitely has more land from Pensacola to Florida keys is a very long way. At least 9 hours drive time.
Bigger than Florida.😊@@westmax8491
@@bigfolks675 you're counting Florida's length. In it's entirety, Florida's land mass is smaller than Georgia's. The original commenter is right; GA is the largest state east of the Mississippi.
@@apexone5502 It would be even bigger if they didn't form 2 new states from it. Those being Alabama & Mississippi. 😉
Who would’ve thought some random narrative guy driving through cities and towns would be so entertaining to watch. You my friend may have stumbled upon a niche, keep up the good work.
Thank you, PB! 😀
I drive through them and never have the luxury of actually experiencing them so the videos allow me to do that
I love 20 mins from there and I love it. I’ve lived in Atlanta too but I love the quiet lol
I have relatives in LaGrange. Live in an authentic antebellum home on a whole city block. Been there for 60+ years.
Oooo. I know exactly where you are. I moved to Hogansville in January 2020 and commuted 1-2 times a week to McDonough, to see a guy I was dating. It was cool to explore during COVID. I was very grateful to have moved out of the city right before the pandemic, but man…. There is so much abandoned to time south of Atlanta.
I would have really loved to buy a big warehouse or a commercial/retail space, but everyone who owns them bought them for nothing years ago and wants a fortune to buy. They’re just sitting on them, hoping what happened in Senoia will happen for them.
Driving Miss Daisy - The house in this movie is located at 827 Lullwater Rd NE, Atlanta,..... close to the CDC offices off Clifton. I printed the MLS listing at the time it was listed; sold immediately.
My father was born in Grantville in 1921 in an old home there. Not sure if it's still standing. RIP Daddy.
When I was in Savannah, I wanted to make quick pilgrimage to Athens since I am a huge R.E.M. fan. Google Maps took me through some very rural parts of Georgia...it was very interesting...and if you are ever in Athens, you just have to see the train trestle that was used on the back covee of R.E.M,'s Murmur album.
Sorry to tell you but the 'Murmur' trestle is history. Torn down in 2021 to build a new network of bike and walking trails.
Love R.E.M. life's rich pageant reveal fables of the reconstruction
Did you go through Philomath?
I lived across the N. Oconee River from downtown, close enough to walk. Randomly driving around, I stumbled across it, and had no clue what it was at the time. The music scene there was really awesome. Went to a concert in an abandoned warehouse somewhere north of normaltown once, had a punk band with their amps and lighting running off a generator, a keg of PBR, and a couple handles of evan williams being passed around. It was a blast.
"quick pilgramage" lol.. little did anyone know that Georgia is like 12 hours long drive from SouthEast to Northwest, for no reason 😅😅
Also in your last shot that you have in this video with the library sign behind your head and the gray building on the other side, my Sept mother had her restaurant there years ago.
It is kinda cool seeing all these little towns we would otherwise never get to see it is amazing how some places look like they haven't been touched in a hundred years.
I love how you show small towns. For 20 years we lived just north of where you're at as we were in Fayetteville. Our daughter now lives in Senoia. We now live back home in Panama City Beach.
The housing in towns within 60 miles of Atlanta is going to be expensive. In the early to mid 90’s, there was a huge migration of companies and population from the north. Many people didn’t want to live in Atlanta proper, hence the explosion of towns that are now considered metro Atlanta. Two to three hour commutes one way, sitting in traffic jams are typical.
Go deeper south in GA to Barwick,Pavo, Coolidge and Boston. They are really small towns in Georgia also
I too am so glad I found your channel. So interesting to see these older towns, and building that look like they used to in my youth. Brings back great memories.
Awesome!
Born and raised in newnan Georgia and I love it here. If you’re ever around here again you should drop by and see all of the old civil war era homes!
I grew up in Newnan as well , the impression he gave of Harrelson isn't fair because I know too many white and black people in Harrelson that are the friendless anywhere. The downtown used to where a lot of cotton warehouses were and related businesses. When the cotton market crashed, a lot of wealth was lost.
I grew up 5 minutes from there in a small town called Alvaton. I loved the stillness and quietness of the small town.
You should go to the real Woodbury, Ga. Some of The Walking Dead was filmed there too. When I lived there, they were literally filming half a mile from my house and we couldn't even go down there.
It's fine to show the bad parts of town but I really want to see the old houses that have been kept up!!!! I love Victorian architecture!!!!!
Jackson GA has some. I love them too and always stare at them whenever I go there
You would love Madison Georgia. Spring is coming an you would be in awe of all the dogwoods an azaleas among other flowers lining main Street an more beautiful old homes on all the side streets. Some of these mansions are pre civil war. Kept up over the years in pristine condition. You can walk to all these places, several places to get good food and coffee. Like a trip back in time, yet modern at the same time. Lived here my whole life,
@@patriciashelton6644 I agree with you Patricia Madison is the most beautiful town I've ever seen. The old homes surrounded by azaleas and magnolia trees. Count your blessings you call Madison home.
You should see Shotwell St in Bainbridge
Also, my husband and I sold two houses in Grantville. The blue one you pointed out with all the stuff out front and the white one across the street where the street split.
I love where I live in Georgia.
I’m glad he corrected Woodbury lol.
It's interesting that you did a video of "Rural Georgia" in the Metro Atlanta area, also a town where movies are filmed. Haralson is in Coweta County, which is the same county of Newnan and Senoia; Metro Atlanta. Is this video about the damage done by a tornado or Rural Georgia? Next time, go waaaaay down south and do a video in some place like Leesburg, GA to capture Rural Georgia.
Learning about the history of our USA towns is a fascinating subject, you are just getting started, this interest will lead to other projects. Great videos, love them all.
Thanks, Brunie!
I've gone to Haralson several times on one of my little excursions. There's a little gas station in there that sells the best fresh, ground, sausage. They sell out of sausage and biscuits every morning. Super delicious. There's also a super nice little waterfall not far from there.
You drove right past some very interesting scenery from WD in Senoia, if you’re a Walking Dead fan. First is Alexandria, which was depicted as being the walled community in Virginia, but actually filmed in Senoia. You can see it from the “Welcome to Senoia” sign, just across the RR tracks. Not sure if they’ve taken the walls down yet, or turned it into a tourist attraction, but there were several houses and condos that were enclosed within the walls. You would always see jack-lifts, bucket trucks, and other filming vehicles parked just outside. The church that burnt down was right there within those walls.
Next is Crook Road. The Crooks are a big family name there, with a road named after them. Many scenes on overgrown roads are depicted throughout the show, but Crook Rd. is unique for the dimpled ridge that runs right down the center. You’ll see it in footage. Grass was never cut along-side that road, so as to make it look more neglected and apocalyptic.
The multi-story brick building, on the corner near the water tower, was the set where The Governor had zombies (including his child) stored in liquid. Also, The Governor’s House used to be on Main Street., before the economic boom exploded there and new construction began.
Aw man I live off of Hamilton road in Lagrange about another quarter mile down the road from the footage that you were showing. I was standing outside on my back porch watching the trees when the tornado went over us. I didn't realize that it was the tornado touching down though. Our entire little street was untouched. Family's members neighborhood was wrecked about 2 miles away. I was shocked when I started heading over there and saw the damage that surrounded me. I and my immediate neighbors were extremely fortunate.
I live in Atlanta for a year in 1970-1971 and again for six years in 1972-1978 and I moved to a rural area of Alabama in 1991. So I've seen both sides of the issue, and I'll take rural poor living over city living anytime.
Very true
If you make it to Northeast GA check out the town of Helen and take a cruise on Richard Russell scenic highway.
Grew up in Tifton Ga. Our farm was in TyTy GA. I also lived in Broxton GA for several years. I have lived in rural Georgia and Miami FL. I will take rural Ga all day everyday.
Sorry but I don't consider modern cookie cutter houses placed on postage stamp lots anywhere near beautiful.
I agree. That neighborhood was terrible.
Hi Lord Spoda
Thanks for the video.
Ending part was most interesting, as if driving through woods.
Thanks for sharing your tornado experience, scary though. You were lucky to find a safe place.
Take care. Waiting for the next video.
Thanks for watching, Rajeev!
This was so cool!! I watched the walking dead from the beginning, and always wondered where in Georgia they shot the scenes! Thank you for this!
Head down to Taliaferro(pronounce Toliver locally) or Echols if you want to see empty; but they are my happy place.. I like being away from people.
I'm from Milledgeville, Sandersville, Sparta, Eatonton area but live in Marietta for 10 years now. Imma real country boy. I love it
Hi neighbor I live in Monticello.
My family is From Eatonton GA Also
Small town america is abandoned because there’s no infrastructure or business. How does anyone make a living when all you have is a gas station and dollar tree?
Very nice tour and history of these towns. Love that the stately homes coincide with the character of the town! Glad you’re safe from the tornados! Love the set dressing in the towns! Off to catch up on your other videos! Have a great day.
Your richly representative videos make me miss the South more yearningly than usual, even! Thanks for so many telling, valuable posts!
I live in a little south Ga town ( I have lived here all of my life). We have ONE red light and a handful of stores..It used to be just a gas station years ago and has finally expanded to the handful over the past few years..
The joke is, if you blink you will miss it.. Seriously small!
Sounds nice. :)
Sounds like Mr Rodgers naborhood
Go to Olla, LA
My family is from there, no work.
Not sure how people live. My Aunt passed away & left her nice home to my Uncle. He sold it for $10k.
It looks the same now & the current owners want over a $100k for it..
I wish we could get it back in the family
I'm glad that you made it through the tornado. They can be exciting, for sure. :) Thanks for sharing these Georgia towns with us. I have enjoyed all of your videos so far. Keep up the great job! Have a blessed day.
I love being a local and knowing every single county and little town you visit. I drive through a lot of these towns you do videos on daily.
The filming of the walking dead was mostly done in Senoia Georgia, but they did do some in woodbury, Haralson, griffin, concord, Fayetteville ect. (I live here, have for 20 years), used the date a girl in Haralson, its always been small. Its just a little too far from Atlanta to get people in it for a suburb. Check out Molena and Concord, both are small towns with old buildings
I have a sister in the Del Webb community in Griffin. She loves it! She took me to where the Walking Dead was filmed and to several surrounding towns. I enjoyed the Gone With the Wind muséum!
I thought they would have filmed in Detroit or Kensington Avenue in Philly lol (not laughing at the people of KA by the way, just the fact that the area lends itself to the theme of zombie apocalypse).
I grew up in Palmetto (Fairburn) then to Douglasville.. I lived in Austell/Powder Springs for about 10 years, both places lol.. I went back to Palmetto, closer to Senoia, in 2018 & now I'm about 30 miles south from Griffin, in Upson Co.
I lived off Hutcheson Ferry Rd in Palmetto & it was about 3 miles from the Piggly Wiggly where they filmed "Stranger Things", the famous scene where "L" walked out with the Eggo waffles lol..
Our weather is SO WIERD HERE but I love Georgia, especially rural Ga.
I live in Molena don't come here we don't like outsiders
@@backwoodsgeorgiagirl5594 dang that was kinda mean.
I lived in a small town in Georgia for a couple of years. Population was 454 according to the last census. It had a lot of things associated with larger places. There was a pharmacy, a hardware store, convenience store, used car lot, auto repair shop, antique store, a small park complete with caboose and a retirement center. They did have a small police force but it was done away with while I was there. They had a small city government with a mayor and assistant. There were some rotting houses and just a feeling of decay in the air. The town's heyday had been in the 1920s. The railroad quit stopping there and it was downhill all the way after that. So glad I don't live there now.
Does that small town have a medical center/hospital? Seems to be missing in the more rural sparsely populated areas.
@@jerrycummings2821 no it didn't have one. I suppose the retirement place was the closest thing to that. I went there once to see what it was like and would take my chances and go most anywhere else. It was a pigsty.
I'm not from the US but I love to watch all of your videos. Relaxing and enticing.
Thank you. It's good too see the tiny towns in Georgia. Peace and quiet. Must be nice....
Not only was the walking dead filmed there but,a movie called Moonrunners was in 1974. It was the predecessor to the Dukes of Hazzard! Also the 2012 movie called Lawless had scenes filmed there. A bunch of us were down there in 2010 for the 2010 Moonrunners weekend.
What a coincidence for me. Just last week I spent the week visiting my mother who lives in Senoia. We heard the tornado sirens too. It was quite a blustery storm but no sign of a tornado. Her subdivision in Senoia (neighboring town) 5 miles from Haralson is quite nice. Norman Reedus owns a restaurant in Senoia. It's named Norman's and ??? I forgot the other name but my Mom showed me. Sounds like we were there at the same time.
I was excited and typed before watching the entire video. We were there at the same time. lol
Cool!
The restaurant is called "Nick and Norms." I live about 10 min up the road in PTC.
@@stanleyclark923 Thanks I knew his name is on it.
Slab City, the camber of commerce is aware you are planning to come. You may get the key to the city if you stay a few days.
My dad's side of the family from small towns Wrens ga. Louisville ga. Wadley ga. Matthews ga. I love the small towns I grow up in the country Wrens ga. And Savannah ga. I was to country for the City and to city for the country
On some of the back roads I needed to time my approach with postal delivery.
My family lives in the areas of GA called Thomasville and Cairo. Not as small as these but still small. I have lived in NY and thomasville. Big difference but I actually prefer rural lol. Visit areas near Sparta, GA like the Powelton community and deepstep, GA!
Georgia and Alabama (to a slightly lesser extent) both have really bad habits of naming cities and towns that are way outside or nowhere near counties of the same name. Haralson is no where near Haralson county; Forsyth is a good drive from Forsyth county; Jasper is nowhere near Jasper county… it goes on and on. Same for Alabama. Marion is nowhere near Marion county. You can tell I’ve spent my whole life in both Hahaha
And Decatur County, GA is hundreds of miles from Decatur, GA 🤣
Douglasville is actually in Douglas County but the name is slightly different lol... ur so right. Haha.. I've noticed that & it can be so confusing for people from other areas
Really enjoying your trips! Excellent format for this content. Looking forward to seeing more small towns.
I work on a lot of the sets you speak of. I'm local. But I always ask the folks from LA what they think. First, it's buying a home. It's worth it here. Second, and I quote "people are genuinely nice, not fake nice", "people will talk and be friendly", "people wave to each other but mean hello and have a good day" .. several ppl said one part or more of those.
I love your videos showing so much potential in our country these towns have potential obviously they had bad leaders with no clue how to make them successful. seem really familiar to me until you mentioned The Walking Dead I mean this town should be making big bucks in tourism
I lived in this area all my life ,I could care less a out being in a large city and will be fine for the rest of my life here
My aunt joe one of my moms cousins her son worked on the set of walking dead in that town !! Got to go see it one day was really sweet
I worked for a large service company that tended to foreclosed homes for banks. My ex girlfriends son worked on one of the crews and was down around that area and was involved in a truck accident, his truck and service trailer was hit by a tractor trailer early one morning, and after his truck was hit and shoved off the road, the big rig hit an SUV all sitting and waiting on a school bus, a woman in the SUV died, and the big rig belonged to the Walking dead production, it was loaded with lighting, camera, and set equipment, was driving too fast, and the driver was not even CDL licenced, the family of the deceased sued TWD and won. My young friend got insurance money, and bought a Harley after crashing one on a test ride, he had never ridden a motorcycle.
Glad you guys were safe from the tornadoes!
Thank you!

I live in Senoia and work in atl. I know Grantville downtown was sold on Ebay about 10 years ago.
2:52 those silos look like the scenes where Rick's people and the governor's people were milling about while Rick was meeting with the governor (probably in that shed on the right)
Oh my goodness. Prayers for all the families affected by the tornados. I'm glad you and your wife are okay. Thank you for the road trip and The Walking Dead tour 💕
If you’d like to visit the town that My Cousin Vinny was filmed in, check out Monticello ga
Uh love our small town in GA I have lived in Newnan/grantville all of my life 60 years
Central GA and South GA also have a lot of small towns
Haralson is barely even a town. It’s an old farming community, but it’s only 5 mins from the booming town of Senoia, 15 mins from very nice Newnan or Peachtree City. Haralson will probably be over developed in 5 yrs.
I live in a rural town in Georgia not from these towns in your video. I appreciate living in a small town more than ever due to all the craziness in the world. 😃
Check out the towns of Rocky Ford Sylvania and Millen about 90 minutes south of Augusta. On the way to I 16 you can go through Portal and Metter. Jump on 16 east and head to Savannah.
I was going to suggest Metter too-I like the downtown-Claxton,Register,Brooklet and even big bad Statesboro
I lived in downtown Atlanta for years. So glad we left for rural Georgia!! ❤🖤
This town is a part of the Atlanta metropolitan area. The outskirt parts of the metro area tend to be small towns. I’ve been out that way for work reasons and I live in Cobb.
Georgia has alot of towns like this and everyone knows everyone. It's ok to live there if you don't mind driving everywhere for entertainment and bigger stores. It can also be depressing too.
The long narrow houses are called "Shotgun houses!!
I reside in Savannah, Georgia.! Nice enough town.
I'm obsessed by your video's ever since I saw the one from Gary, In where I used to live one town over from. Thanks
Thanks again for the shots of the RR Station. The station appears like it has been restored. It looks like the nearby freight station has been preserved as well..
Hey Lord Spoda 🤩
do you know I hitch a ride with you all the time ?
That's the idea!
Do rural Tennessee next please.
This summer. :)
