Traveled to Franklin Canyon Park in the Hollywood hills which is the real "Myers Lake" so father and son could walk down that path where Andy and Opie walked.

  • I always though that was the Hollywood reservoir. All these years, and there's another body of water around there that I didn't know about? fill me in please.

  • Two Chairs No Waiting has a whole episode about Myers Lake or Franklin Canyon.

  • This is your personal version of the show correct? As I was watching this video I found myself saying "Wait a minute, that is not Andy Griffith?!" "and that young lad certainly is not Ron Howard!" Right?

  • That's right. As the description says this is at Franklin Canyon where my son and I walked the path and filmed us walking the path where Andy and Opie walked.

  • The lake dried up? When? Anyone know?

  • It didn't dry up but it is smaller than it was back in the 60's. The dam is an earthen dam and they lowered the water level to reduce the stress on the dam.

  • this lake was used on the brady bunch also.

  • My lazy sundays.

  • I always thought that Family Guy should do an opening like this with Peter and Chris walking down through the woods playing this music lol

  • i'm trying to whistle the andy griffith show theme song. my dad whistles it like a pro!

  • Is that where they really walked?

  • The Andy Griffith Show!

    Starring Andy Griffith!

    And "Show"!

    And "The"!

  • nice

  • @christian1127 The lake at Franklin Canyon Park IS part of the reservoir system for LA, but it's just north of Beverly Hills (you have to take some side streets through Beverly Hills to get there). It's actually a very nice place for picnics and for hiking. And, though it's pretty close to all of LA, you wouldn't know it when you're there...it's a nice, peaceful place. Just watch out for Ernest T. Bass! Great job on the re-creation!

  • I'll be honest, I've never seen this show...but for some reason the whistling was stuck in my head all day! I'll have to watch it next time I see it on. >_>

  • Now that's one great dad to arrange something like that! 5 stars all the way!!!
