Coming up in August…

Along with expected warm weather here on the South West Coast of Canada we can also look forward to these things to take place in August:

1.)Asphalt Shingle price increase.  Its time. 10 -12%

2.)Copper Drains and Scuppers have to go up on August 16 ^th . Expect a 12% increase on these items. Please don’t tell the crooks that we use copper in roofing, they’ll be up on your roofs looking to recycle.

3.)The BC Lions are destined to win 2 games in a row.

For more information on pricing, contact your local Cedar Grove branch and they will be happy to provide you with the new pricing level or price lists and if you want, get you a sharp number on a ’78 Vega.  They don’t say, ‘Get it at the Grove’ for nothing!

Train Leaves Here This Morning (Clark/Dillard/Leadon)

I lost ten points just for bein’

In the right place at exactly the wrong time

I looked right at the facts there

But I may as well been completely blind

So if you see me walkin’ all alone

Don’t look back I’m just on my way back home

There’s a train leaves here this mornin’

I don’t know what I might be on

She signed me to a contract

Baby said it would all be so life long

Looked around then for a reason

When there wasn’t somethin’ to blame it on

But if time makes a difference while we’re gone

Tell me now and I won’t be hangin’ on

There’s a train leaves here this mornin’

I don’t know what I might be on

Thirteen-Twenty North Columbus

Was the address that I’d written down on my sleeve

I don’t know just what she wanted

Might have been that it was getting’ time to leave

And I watched as the smoker passed it on

And I laughed when the joker said “Lead on”

Cause there’s a train leaves here this mornin’

I don’t know what I might be on

There’s a train leaves here this mornin’

I don’t know what I might be on
