New Beginnings

Arturo is no longer at our restaurant. He was having problems with one of his partners, who also happens to be his cousin. They hadn't gotten along for awhile, and now Arturo is gone. He has been working at another restaurant out of town, but we're hoping to lease a restaurant right here in Brooksville, which is only about 3 miles from our house. We're going to look at it on Monday and hopefully sign a lease. It's very exciting and scary, too. With the economy the way it is, starting a new business is a big risk, but it's a risk that we are willing to take and hopefully everything will work out. This is something we have wanted for awhile, to have another restaurant, but it's sad that it had to happen this way, with him basically being forced out of his own business that he had made successful. But, the Lord works in mysterious ways, and maybe this will turn out to be a wonderful venture for us.
