CLEAR LAKE, Wisconsin (AP) -- Marsha Scheuermann met her husband Dave in an Internet chat room where they shared their passion for the 1960s TV sitcom "The Andy Griffith Show." Eventually they fell in love and married.
Today, they live in a replica of Sheriff Taylor's home, and they run a bed-and-breakfast there called the Taylor Home Inn.
"We love the show," Marsha Scheuermann said. "The word fan doesn't quite do it. You got to use the whole word -- fanatic."
Guests at the inn are greeted by a "Welcome to Mayberry" sign on the front door as the show's theme song -- "The Fishing Hole" with its distinctive whistling -- plays in the background.
The door opens and there's Andy's front room just like it looked on TV -- the couch and chairs, Look magazines on the coffee table, an RCA Victor black-and-white television, and a bottle of Col. Harvey's Indian Elixir herb formula medicine. (Remember when Aunt Bee bought the tonic for strength and vigor, and got a little tipsy?) - CNN
