One of the things that my buddies and I like to do is go out fishing every weekend during the summer.  Though this was something that we used to do on a regular basis, now that we are all married, our wives don’t really let us do our time honored tradition anymore.  In fact, we are lucky if we make it out a couple of weekends each summer.

So, when our wives agreed to let us go this weekend, we all jumped at the opportunity.  But it was at that point that I realized that I still had not replaced the lower unit on my boat, and I needed to get right on that or I wasn’t going to get to go.

I hopped into my car and drove down to the local Mercury Outboard Parts dealer hoping that they would have the part I needed.  When I arrived there, they didn’t have the one I needed.  At that moment, I felt screwed.

But the owner overheard our conversation and recommended another part that would solve my problem.  I thanked him for his wonderful customer service, went home to repair the boat, and I made it out to the lake just one hour ago.  I am so happy that I could make it out for the weekend.  There is nothing that I love more in life than fishing.
