Regarding jail keys: in the episode "The Jinx" there are two key rings hanging on the wall by the cells. I happened to be watching that episode today and spotted that.
Thanks Dewey, for your kind words regarding the Mayberry Parade. My wife and I took the squad car to the July 4th parade at a neighboring town again yesterday. We had just a great time. It was a large parade and they had four announcer stands along the parade route. Every time we passed a stand the announcer gave us a very nice welcome and each had something very special to say about Mayberry. Each one thanked us for coming and invited us back next year. The town was just ten miles from where I had taught so once again I saw a lot of familiar faces and a number of former students .Getting hugs along a parade route is so special. I had my picture taken with the city cop on duty that day. I had gone up to him and asked him if he had a couple of extra bullets I could borrow. I saw a Marine private in full uniform and I tried to get him to have a picture with me as Gomer Pyle USMC, but he was too busy hobnobbing with his friends. I thought that would have made a great picture. I even arrested and cuffed a young boy and led him a short distance along the parade route but then he managed to escape much to the delight of the parade watchers. Pretended to step into some horse droppings and that got a lot of laughs. All in all, it was a grand way to spend the birthday of this great nation of ours. So much Americana in these small Midwestern towns.
