I had yet another wonderful experience presenting my Mayberry "What's Your Hurry?" program. This time my audience was a group of community professional leaders including a judge, a board chairman of our large hospital, lawyers, retired professors, and other such folks. I was a bit curious as how they would relate to the wonderful world of Mayberry. Turns out I had no need for concern as they were just wonderful participants and just plain folks. They had many positive comments to share and enjoyed the program very much. One of the men in the audience was a classmate to Clara Edward's nephew, Ferdie, who was Eau Claire native Joel Redlund. A number of the people grew up in small towns back in the 50's and 60's so they especially enjoyed the trip down memory lane. Also enjoyed visiting with two former students as the head chef at the country club was a from third grade student of mine as was the banquet manager. So we were able to have a very nice visit. Only problem was that they were disappointed that I was not able to bring the squad car, but I did share my YouTube video of it. When I played "The Fishing Hole" while we were awaiting our food, several men were talking about how it was too bad there weren't words to the song. I didn't say anything at the time as I wanted to see their reaction when I played Andy singing the words to "The Fishing Hole" when I showed my pictures of the Mayberry people. They were very pleasantly surprised.
