Update from MAYBERRY ON MAIN
Just checking in to say hello to everyone. We have had a great Christmas time so far here in everybody's hometown "Mayberry" Mount Airy. We had the Christmas parade on Sunday and the tree lighting on Thursday evening. Betty Lynn was at the tree lighting and said she enjoyed it very much. She threw the switch to light the tree. Darrel and I were able to visit with her for a little bit and she said that everything was going well with her. She looked great and it was (as always) a pleasure to talk with her. We have a few pictures on our website, if you want to check them out at www.mayberryonmain.com . Many thanks and Merry Christmas to all. Come see us in Mount Airy or on the web.

update from MAYBERRY ON MAIN
Hope everyone is well. Per many requests, we would like to update our Mayberry family on a few things going on with us and the goings on in our wonderful Mayberry town/Mount Airy. Russell Hiatt / Floyd's City Barber Shop is doing well. Still cutting hair and taking pictures with the Mayberry fans. Fans are amazed at his good humor and never ending love towards them. Charles Dowell / Snappy Lunch is doing well. Fans are so pleased to meet him and have their picture taken with him when they go to Snappy Lunch for their pork chop sandwiches. Emmett Forrest is doing well. He is pleased to finally have his wonderful collection of Andy Griffith and Mayberry memorabilia displayed at the Andy Griffith Playhouse thanks to the Surry Arts Council. Emmett checks in on us here at MAYBERRY ON MAIN, on occasion and we are always glad to see him. He's a prince! Betty Lynn has been in newspapers across the country, regarding her move to Mount Airy. We see her occasionally and she seems very happy and loves all of us fans. The Mount Airy News' editor Andy Matthews wrote in his column today, 11/12 that Andy Griffith is working on a new movie called ... Play the Game ... He also mentions that Andy Griffith underwent hip surgery in September of this year, after a fall. This might explain some recent news reports of Andy Griffith being in ill health. He is California now, doing the movie, so that is great news. Anyway, it is a informative and a complimentary editorial by the Mount Airy News. We aren't sure if you can get online and see it or not. We, are doing well. and have had a wonderful time meeting all the Mayberry fans that come to visit us in Andy's Hometown. If you are ever in our area, please stop and visit with us across from Floyds and Snappy Lunch. Our daughter Samantha, gave the " Mayberry Cruise" in October rave reviews. Of course, how can you go wrong with a wonderful group of Mayberry Fans and the fun of the Mayberry Stars and " Mayberry Tribute Artists". Mayberry Cruise #3 is being planned for 2008. We will keep you posted and pass along info as it comes in. Best wishes to all and if we can ever help anyone, we would be glad to.

FYI stamp
Hey to everyone. We asked the Mount Airy Post Office "why isn't there an Andy Griffith stamp? Tommy - he always puts the Mayberry Days postmark in our book every year - told Darrel, that would be a bad thing if there was one right now. They only put people that have "passed on" on US Postage Stamps. Hope everyone has a Happy New Year. Come see us at MAYBERRY ON MAIN in 2009 !!

Update from Mayberry On Main
Thanks to all who came for our "Mayberry Day" in Mount Airy on Saturday. Special thanks to our favorite Mayberry Drunk - Otis Campbell aka Kenneth Junkin, who came up from Alabama, just for our event. He livened up the place and made lots of fans smile for photo ops. We had lots of fun and good trivia contests and door prizes. Hope anyone who missed the fun, will come to visit when they are in Andy's hometown - we always have something going on. True story to Ken Anderson. We had a call come into our shop one day, a lady wanted to order some things. After I took her order, I asked her for her shipping information, she game me her last name, CRUMP - C - R - U - M - P ! At that point, I thought, this is a jokefrom one of our "humorous friends".but, no, it was the real thing, but her first name wasn't Helen. It was great We recently, here in Mount Airy, rec'd our 2011 Phone Directory. Out of the 95 pages in our phone book, there are 3 Crumps - C-R-U-M-P 's listed. Hope you enjoyed these trivial trivialities. Hope to see you soon, Debbie / MAYBERRY ON MAIN,192 N.

MY MIND JUST WORKS THAT WAY
Hey from Mayberry On Main; We were playing patriotic cd's in the shop for Memorial Day weekend and I was reading the cover to "God Bless America".on the back it reads great soundtrack, more than two centuries in the making, so grab you drum and fife and join the patriotic parade! .. so grab you drum and fifefifespelled the same as our Barney Fife got me to thinkingwhat does that mean? Looked it up and just look at the type of instrument that a fife is. Fife (instrument) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Fife _(instrument) A fife is a small, high-pitched, transverse flute that is similar to the piccolo, but louder and shriller due to its narrower bore. The fife originated in medieval Europe .. I think the definition describes our Barney pretty well. What do you think? Have a Happy Memorial Day and God Bless America! Come see us in Andy's hometown!
