Us with the owner of the Snappy Lunch - he's owned it for over 60 years

We went to visit Mt. Airy, North Carolina the way to my brother Mark's house. We left around 8:30 on Friday morning and arrived in Mt. Airy in time for lunch. This is a very big deal because David is a HUGE Andy Griffith fan, and Mt. Airy is the hometown of Andy Griffith. David has probably mentioned to me a dozen times that he wanted to visit there someday, so we decided to just take the day and do it. We had a lot of fun walking around the town. We had lunch at the Snappy Lunch (famous for their pork chop sandwich) and had ice cream at the Blue Bird Diner. We went to the Andy Griffith museum, and to a part of town that had a Sheriff's station and Wally's service station. We even got our picture taken in the squad car like the one Andy and Barney used to drive. It made me happy that David was so happy that day.
