I had a great time at our biennial All School Reunion back home. I was asked to be the keynote speaker and give my Mayberry Presentation. There were 185 of us there and their were folks there from graduation classes of 1941 up to 1965 when our high school closed. I received so many positive comments about my presentation and so many people shared stories about how much they still enjoy watching TAGS. It was a very emotional packed evening.
The next day we did a parade at a Sturgeon Festival. While walking the parade route with the squad car, a vendor walked up to me and handed me a really cool toy machine gun. It has all kinds of lights that light up and great sounds when you pull the trigger. He said because I only carry one bullet he thought I needed another weapon. It was mine to keep. This week we have three car shows and two more parades. Going back home for the second weekend in a row to be in a Spanish Fall Festival Parade. Most of the people there will be Mexicans who work in a very large Abbyland Meat Processing Plant. Not sure if they will understand my role, but the city fathers called me and asked me to come. I probably won't issue too many citations as they think they are real. A friend called me today and told me they were traveling through Illinois this week and they were listening to satellite radio when suddenly they heard the show host say something about Ken Anderson, the Mayberry Guru. Don't have a clue what that was about. Hope there isn't an APB out for me. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.themayberryguru.com www.mayberryreflections.com _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
