I just re-read this thread. Interesting...

Right now, I have to make dinner for Mags and me. My little boy already ate. We're all pretty tired here so I think it's going to be an early night for us.

No..it doesn't work that way..We would make the monument now and set it on your cemetery plot and when you pass away...we would inscribe your final death date..You might as well lock in 2008 prices..by mid-summer you could have your own tombstone..

No I haven't but a few of our suppliers are in Barre VT...but over the past few years a much higher percentage of our granite is coming from China..because most of the labor in Barre is union which makes the prices higher than overseas.

Understandable even tho we are talking about products that weigh tons. Next time your in the area you should check it out, it's only 20 min from Waterbury. Here is a sample

Just got home from taking daughter to 3rd grade talent show practice and then gymnastics.

Now burning video to post to YouTube so grandpa can see her "talent".

Watching Mets, they just went ahead on a solo home run.

Getting ready for American Idol.. can't wait to see who's going home this week.
