Happy Tuesday!It’s July, and with temperatures in the 90’s (and beyond), it’s officially summer in the South! But here in Gaston County we look forward to summer all winter long… Going to eat at our favorite fish camp, vacation bible school, going to the beach, pool parties, home grown tomato sandwiches on white bread, Fourth of July fireworks and watermelon are all part of what we love about summer. And for kids- summer is the best ever! Not even the richest millionaire is as happy as a kid on a bike in the summer…We love this photo from @Dangertoy29 on Instagram
