The gentleman we encountered when we stopped in at the beginning of our first-time visit to Mt. Airy was very helpful. He even called down to Wally's to schedule our squad car tour for us. It's worth stopping here if you've never been to Mt. Airy before.

We were in the area and ended up strolling the streets of Mt Airy. It is a beautiful little country town with lots of shops and restaurants all using the Andy Griffith scene as the draw. We enjoyed our time here.
