Mayberry USA

After a night in the Walmart lot in Mt. Airy off we went to the campground.

 We arrived shortly. I stayed at the Walmart because I was wanting 2 full days at the campground.

 This is a very nice campground and it has a WIFI that has a very strong signal.

 After getting settled and hooking everything up we went to The Hungry Farmer Restaurant. It is located just across the Virginia line and it has a country buffet. It is not in any of the local tourist booklets around the area and I ask the lady in the office of the campground for a good place to eat which was what she suggested.  It is on US 52 and a short drive from Mt Airy.

 On the way back I stopped at this very large roadside market with farm fresh fruit and vegetables. I bought several different vegetables which had a very good price.

 We then got back to Mt. Airy(Mayberry). Former home town of Andy Griffith and the town of Mayberry in the tv series.

 They had the sheriff squad car from the tv series.

 Here is Floyd's Barber Shop. I peeked inside but didn't see Floyd. The price of a haircut is $8.00 which in this day and time is a good price.

 We went to the Andy Griffith Museum,but didn't go in. 

We only came to the museum to see the bronze statue of Andy and Opie.  There they will be always,having there fishing poles in hand gong down to the pond.  Walking through down you can hear Andy singing and on down the street you can hear the whistling of the theme song from the Andy Griffith TV Show. All of the stores are cashing in of Andy and the tv show with posters,hats t shirts and anything else they can print on.  We had a nice day playing tourist.
