Default Just My Luck!

I was returning a rental vehicle to Enterprise Rent a Car. The Manager of Enterprise told me to bring the car back on empty. I was just coming into Tavares, when the car stalled, and to avoid staying in the road I coasted into the first driveway I came to. As luck would have it, it was Duncan Granite, and when I told the Gentlemen what had happened, they arranged for me to be taken to a gas station where I purchased some gas and then they drove me back to my car, where I put this gas in and started the engine.
I realized what business they were in, and I told them that I would mention how hospitable they had been. I began a short conversation with the Owner, who said they do alot of work in The Villages, and he described the type of work as installation of granite counter tops.
All I can say is if their work is equal to their kindness it must be a top notch outfit.

Their work is most definitely equal to their kindness to you. Have seen a couple of the countertops they have installed. Beautiful work.
