A local boy was on the men’s olympics team this year… Summerville is up in north west GA, and was known for being the home of Howard Finster and Bobby Lee Cook… It’s a tiny little town in the foothills…

In happier news, Biles and the rest of the women’s gymnastics team are bringing it! Not sure why this won’t one-box.
We are lucky infrastructure isn’t an Olympic Event because South Korea is kicking our butt in that too.
