About Bob Montana and the Archie comic series.
I never knew growing up the Archie comics were really based on Meredith NH and the Lake.
My kids and grand kids are still reading old ones we have.

We always thought "California" for some reason, puts a whole different light on someplace and a thing we love.

The Meredith News used to publish a week's worth of Archie strips in their weekly paper. Do they do that anymore?
