This is one of the most famous country stores in Georgia. But as many of my fellow rural photographers will tell you, it’s notoriously difficult to photograph. The present owner is a daughter of Mr. Veal and has recently renovated the building. I plan to visit again soon and hope to find the right perspective.
A sign you’ll see as you approach Deepstep proclaims this picturesque village to be the “Heart of Kaolin”. Considering that, there’s a lot of “chalk truck” traffic here, so use caution when photographing. Chalk truck is the name used by locals for the huge semis that move the bulk kaolin almost non-stop.
