Wish I could show this video to my Grandparents they would have loved seeing Alderson at its finest. I regret not coming with my grandma back home for the 4yh of July celebration. She always looked forward to it every year.
My aunt's mother and father-in laws lived in Alderson. One summer my sister and I got to spend a week with them in Alderson. Such a neat spot. Thank you for this lovely video and memories.
Can't help but to tear up a bit when I watch this beautifully done video. I find myself thinking about doing something, at each scene. So many years ago, so many memories flow through my mind. "I know that day soon will come, her call I can not heed. For certain she will out last me, my life I must concede. But in my mind, she is restored, and I’m a child again. I walk the streets with no shoes on, and play all day with friends."_Barry Worrell
COOOOLLL, i live and work in NC but i have a nice hideaway/house in Quinwood, i was just there for 4 days a few weeks ago. I am right near the Crighton school and around Christmas they were giving kids trailer rides around the block, so many places things like that now are illegal, i consider WV the last frontier, VERY quiet there in my area.
One of my teachers from high school later became the mayor of Alderson. His name is Luther Lewallen. I once had an uncle who lived at Snowflake, which I believe is not far from Alderson.
I grew up in my early years in Alderson. What was your uncle's name. I now own the Snowflake farm. Did he live at Snowflake village? Love the area and the river.
Dated a girl who's last name is Alderson from this place. Beautiful country girl! Down to earth. She told me how nice Alderson was... I see now. Her family donated or sold property to build an all-woman's prison. She never had a McDonald's hamburger until she was 16...lol
Thank you 4 showcasing this part of the country. It real America.

Me and my Dad meet up in Alderson about once a year and love this little town
I spent 4 weeks visiting W Virginia and loved it. The nicest people I’ve ever met. I’m from Massachusetts
Alderson WV is one of the towns that John Denver had in mind when he wrote his song "country roads". Love the Ford truck, wish it was mine.
Sorry but John Denver did not write Country Roads.
Super well done! Best 4th of July Celebration in WV too. Lots of family history here. Some are still there too near the RR station.
Thank you!

@@christophertaylor1575 My uncle's name was Paul Bonifacio. If I am not mistaken he worked at a rock quarry.
Love it
Thanks so much!
Less than a minute in and they're eating fried chicken. That isn't fair!
Big wheel has some of the best fried chicken around! 😋 All you can eat fried chicken on Fridays is the best night of the week 😅

When is the strawberry festival?

And...her sister worked at a Greenbrier Hotel or something like that. The girl I knew moved to Pittsburgh PA.
Folks this is America, despite what our lousy government tells you.
All positive comments until yours.
@@KadiddlehopperClem looks like its a pretty positive comment to me.
