I think Ron Howard played a young boy. Even so, we will miss him and enjoy Andy's reruns!

Time to go fishing!

THE FISHIN' HOLE


We can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

Well, now, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at the fishin' hole,
We may not get a bite all day, but don't you rush away.

What a great place to rest your bones and mighty fine for skippin' stones,
You'll feel fresh as a lemonade, a-settin' in the shade.

Whether it's hot, whether it's cool, oh what a spot for whistlin' like a fool.

What a fine day to take a stroll and wander by the fishin' hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

We'll have no need to call the roll when we get to the fishin' hole,
There'll be you, me, and Old Dog Trey, to doodle time away.

If we don't hook a perch or bass, we'll cool our toes in dewy grass,
Or else pull up a weed to chaw, and maybe set and jaw.

Hangin' around, takin' our ease, watchin' that hound a-scratchin' at his fleas.

Come on, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at the fishin' hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

TV Land is running a marathon starting tomorrow

Channel 2-WFMY, here in NC where he lived and died, is running 2 hours per day marathon of "The Andy Griffith Show" for the rest of this week. The channel was all him and his shows (Andy Griffith Show, Matlock, movies he was in, his singing, the house where he lived - it was turned into a B&B a long time ago) and other things such as accomplishments, awards, etc...

One of the greats. If you ever get the chance to listen to his comedy albums do so the one about football is so funny

They were talking about that on the news last night-makes me want to listen!  Shocked how fast they buried him...maybe to keep fans away??
