Happy Summer to You, GC Friends!

How are the warm, Summer days treating you? (Pretty good, I hope!)

Well today folks, we are going to positively partake in some high-level SCREAMING. (...And not the type of screaming that comes from having a million things to do on a never-ending tasklist. That's another story for another time.....GULP!

We are going to do some SCREAMING for our delicious ICE CREAM shops and FROZEN TREAT dives here in Bulloch County!

But before we do that, it is important to understand why we must continue to consume our daily ice cream food-group during these hot summer months. (And why it's totally NECESSARY to our overall well-being). 

Well, I took a random "Logic and Deductive Reasoning" course during my undergraduate years at Emory University. And, if I apply my deductive skills correctly here: 

Cold=A Summer Necessity.

And,

Ice Cream=Cold.

So, if we make the equivalent substitution of “COLD” for "ICE CREAM”:

ICE CREAM=A SUMMER NECESSITY.

Like my logic there? (I knew ya would.) You’re welcome, GC friends!

So, to make sure that we’re consuming our necessities this summer 😉, let's take a look at our most-prized ice cream shops and frozen treat dives here in Bulloch County. It's Slurp-and-Survive time, friends!
