>>>Just about the sweetest scene of the series in my opinion is the one where
Barney and Thelma Lou are looking at furniture in the window.   The way she
says, "I know" when he says he's not the kind of guy who can be
pressured--her affection for him is, well, sweet.<<<

 

Cathy, this is a favorite of mine, too.  A very poignant scene, well written 
and very well played by the actors.

 

>>>And number 7: with Aunt Bee I get on my knees and thank heaven I have a
place to go and something to do.<<<

 

Something that struck me about this line from Aunt Bee (which makes my cry 
every time) is that she didn't just want a place to go.  She wanted something 
to do.  She wanted her life to have PURPOSE.  She wanted to be productive.  She 
wanted to serve.  Isn't that great?  It's a concept that, for many people, is 
almost quaint today, I'm sorry to say.  I appreciate Aunt Bee's work ethic and 
the purposeful way she lived her life.
