Tongue Twisters

Barney knew several tounge twisters that he tried out of Opie. I think the easiest one he knew was "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?" But while I was watching "Aunt Bea's Invisible Beau" another tounge twister came to my mind when I heard Clara telling Aun

Hey Historybuff! I de-tasseled corn as a teen growing up in Indiana. One of the roughest jobs ever. Those corn stalks can really scratch a person, not to mention HOT! It did pay well and only lasted about two weeks. Great memory. Sandra Back home again in IN __

My husband and I have stayed at the Rockford Inn Bed and Breakfast for the past 5 years that we have attended Mayberry Days.

I can't believe no one thought of Briscoe.  He always wore overalls sometimes with a nice suit jacket over them and a shirt and tie (as in Mountain Wedding - one of my personal "favorites"). Everybody on the Truck, "Briscoe" Bob Mundy ___ WBMUT
