North Carolina is One of the Fastest Growing States in the Union

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, June 22, 2011

North Carolina has experienced steady population growth throughout its history. The rate has never dipped into single digits in any decade since the Civil War. Presently the rate of growth in North Carolina is 18%, which is ranked sixth in the top 10 fastest growing states in the country. This is not surprising considering the fact that its geography includes beautiful mountains and expansive oceans and lakes. The climate is perfect with four mild seasons.

Its growth has been augmented recently by the "halfback" phenomenon: Northerners retire to Florida, decide they don't like it and move halfway back north, to mid-South states like the Carolinas. With wonderful places to live, southern style hospitality, great food and comfortable standard of living, what is not to like about North Carolina.

Tips on How to Beat the Heat in North Carolina

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, June 15, 2011

It sure has been hot here in Mooresville, NC. With temperatures in the 90’s all week, the staff at Abberly Green would like to provide you with some tips from the American Red Cross on how to beat the heat:

Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids, even if you do not feel thirsty. Avoid drinks with caffeine or alcohol. Eat small meals and eat more often.
Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, light-colored clothing. Avoid dark colors because they absorb the sun’s rays.
Slow down, stay indoors and avoid strenuous exercise during the hottest part of the day. Postpone outdoor games and activities.
Take frequent breaks if you must work outdoors, and use a buddy system when working in excessive heat.
Check on family, friends and neighbors who spend a lot of time outdoors, who spend much of their time alone or who are more likely to be affected by the heat.
Never leave children or pets alone in enclosed vehicles. Check on your animals frequently to ensure that they are not suffering from the heat.
