Off topic story, sorta

[Andy Greene]

A freind of the wifes 10 yr old came by our house last year for my daughters b/day and saw my boats and chewed my ear off from then untill today about how they worked,how fast they were,bla bla bla. I saw his geniune interest so I got him a cheap ebay electric to get him started. He finally got the chance to come by the house(they live a good ways from us)today and get 'his boat'. His mom said he didnt sleep all night and he was phyched too say the least when he got to our house. I had the batterys all charged and ready to go and we hit the pond. After a quick briefing, controler was his and off he went, he couldnt have been happier. Then the cool part happened, his little brother(7) asked to drive it. He didnt flinch , gave it right over and and showed him how to do it. After watching him give the controller to 3 other kids who walked up and let them try it too, I was blown away.Best day I have had at the pond yet.
