Good deal too!
The good deal is the look on your face typing this right now.
Congratulations...(c;
I was at Bushy Park, a public boat landing with two sides on an earthen dam
on the Cooper River in Charleston. I docked my boat on the public pier and
parked the car. When I got back, just across from my boat was an old
runabout that had seen better days with a tired old 2-stroker hanging off
the back....
A little girl was sitting in the passenger's seat of weathered plastic.
She smiled at me as I walked up to get in my boat and said, "Hey, mister.
How do you like my dad's new boat!", waving her hand across the gelcoat
like those models you see in a car commercial....
Of all 8 boats tied up on the dock, some costing over $30K I'm sure, that
old runabout was about the finest boat in South Carolina. All you had to
do was ask her! As I drove away to go downriver, Daddy was coming down the
dock and I saw her jump up out of the finest boat in SC to meet him.
Man, that was one wonderful boat......(c;....much nicer than mine.....
