Saved by the boom

Yesterday was a good day to be a roofing contractor. A storm swept through the city in the early, early evening. High winds ripped tiles off roofs, knocked out street lights, toppled trees, downed lines, and lifted those light fabric spring skirts.

People started the day anticipating a brilliant warm spring day. They got out and spent money. To finish the day with a storm is a definite plus to the local economies. People scrambled for cover. Dinners served cold making it a green day for the environment. It was a green day for the economy. Saturday gave the kind of day that is good for everything.
