Grimshaw....

Peace River near Grimshaw-click
...Alberta, plenty of road switching, and plenty of wheat,
this ag shipping town, although small, is hard to beat;
things have slowed down in the last sixty years,
so they have taken their time, switching gears.

There was a time, back some time ago,
when more wheat was loaded then we could know;
train after train loaded with local grown gold,
but land gets developed, no wheat, that's cold.
1953, four elevators

2008 two elevators, the blue one is a "double"
