Andy, Barney, Aunt Bee and Opie

Glenn and I stopped off for a quick trip to Mayberry, otherwise known as Mt. Airy where the old TV series, The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry RFD, took place.  This was the birth place of Andy Griffin, where characters such as Opie, Aunt Bee, Gomer Pyle, Floyd and others were featured.

The Andy Griffith Show is an American sitcom first televised by CBS between October 3, 1960 and April 1, 1968. Andy Griffith portrays a widowed sheriff in a fictional small community of Mayberry, North Carolina. His life is complicated by an inept but well-meaning deputy, Barney Fife (Don Knotts), a spinster aunt and housekeeper, Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier), and a young son, Opie (Ron Howard, billed as Ronny). Local ne'er-do-wells, bumbling pals, and temperamental girlfriends further complicate his life.

Glenn reminded me that this small town of Mt. Airy didn't mean a thing to him.  Glenn grew up in Mexico, so the Andy Griffith Show was not part of his "growing up" experience.  Wow, look what he missed.
