Maybe the days of Andy Taylor in the town of Mayberry are gone. I think it might be very hard now to find a town such as Mayberry. Perhaps people are to busy with to many projects going on, but I still think deep down inside many would like to live in a town such as Mayberry… EXCEPT for the fact that it was a dry county,

It was friends helping friends.. neighbors helping neighbors. where did that simple time go? Call me old fashion or maybe call me nosey but I like to know what is going on in my community.

I love the small community that I live in. It is a cozy rural community, located just far enough from large cities to be close to what is happening… but yet far enough away to be a small community.

I live in the Close Knit Community of Ida, Michigan.
