AGS = Andy Griffith Show which ran from 1960 through 1968. This series of caches are placed in a friendly town.
Thelma Lou (portrayed by Betty Lynn) - appeared as a semi regular, appearing in 26 episodes. Her debut occurs in the first season episode, “Cyrano Andy”. Barney and Thelma Lou are platonic friends but their relationship becomes (and remains) a romantic one with Andy’s help. It is uncertain as to how she and Barney met. In one episode Barney mentions he met her at a funeral; yet in another episode it is mentioned that she attended Mayberry Union High and graduated with Andy and Barney.
She is generally portrayed as a sweet-natured, somewhat touchy, caring person who genuinely has an understanding for Barney, despite his unbecoming antics and personality problems. She sang in the choir, lived in her own home, and was apparently employed and self-sufficient. Her occupation is never revealed, but she mentions once that she “had to get back to the office”. Like most Mayberry women, she is an accomplished cook, especially for her “cashew fudge” (Barney’s favorite).
Barney and Thelma Lou went their separate ways when Barney left Mayberry to join the Raleigh police force. Barney returns to Mayberry for a high school reunion. He is intent on getting back with Mary Lou, Barney discovers she has married another man. In the 1986 telemovie Return to Mayberry, Thelma Lou is now divorced. Barney finally marries Thelma Lou.
This film can is placed in a traditional way, but you will need to bring your own writing instrument. This may be considered a park and grab.
As always be safe, happy caching, and enjoy each day to its fullest.
