Nothing to do with snakes, just celebrating...

Have just closed (yesterday) on a building and we're opening up a restaurant this summer! Is our second place after selling our steakhouse a few years ago. Is called "Carmelita's Southwest Bar & Grille". Will have smokin' food and a great bar. Plans are to open around august as we are going to remodel the joint. So anybody from bp.net that finds themselves in the way way way north of Michigan someday can come in for free margaritas from your good friend Steelsack! Just say the password: "Herping makes me thirsty"! We'll get goobered and try to find some garter snakes...........

hahahahaha... dude if i'm ever in michigan, i'm so there... congrats.

Thats great dude I am looking to open up a car audio and electronics shop. I do lots of installations but i dont have a shop yet. I am trying to get a guaranteed loan. Crossing my fingers till then.

Congrats! Justin might come up your way sometime, since he hails from Michigan. I wish you much success with your new place. :)

Thanks, guys I'm pretty stoked. Waiting for liquer licenses and closing dates can be nerve-wracking....just glad everything's finally a go! Seemed to take forever. Signed the purchase agreement last november, and the liquer license took eight months!
gozetec, I'm sending you good juju 8)

Like I said the first time I was here and I was checking out the chat room, I'm so there! :wink:

I know what you mean about nerve-wracking. I put in an offer on a house today and I think I might rupture something waiting to find out if my offer is accepted. :shock: The thing is, the house went on the realtor listing service this morning, and by the time I put my offer in this afternoon, there were already 4 other offers for the house, so I am definitely tied up in knots waiting to find out.

Good luck Marla. I will keep my fingers crossed!

Congrats!!! Take some pictures when you open up for business! :D

Thanks, Raj! Still no news, and I'm still sweatin' it!

Great now I'm hungry :wink:

Congrats Steelsack! I am so happy for you. Let me know when you are open.. my hubby and I have been planning on coming to Michigan this summer, a belated honey moon so to speak. So, while we are there, we will stop by, and I wont forget the password! :wink: Let us know how things move along, I am sure all of us will be sending good vibes your way!

Congrats Steelsack.....I may just have to go visit the relatives in Michigan.

Just how many free margaritas....This ole boy can put them away....LOL

LOL, Till we unanimously agree we've had enough :shock:

Fingers are crossed for you, Marla. I used to work in real estate.........have seen plenty of stressful dealings. Keep the ole chin up! To quote Bob Marley, "every little thing gonna be allright" 8)

Thanks, y'all. I just got the news about half an hour ago that my offer came in 2nd. So now will everyone send vibes so that whoever came in first won't qualify for a mortgage and I'll get the house after all? ;) They have until June 11 to close or I get my chance, but I can't leave that offer open and put in an offer on another house (and I've looked at almost all the other houses in the area in my price range, or the agent has for me, and this was the nicest by a long shot), and I just don't have much time. Aaaarrrggghhh! </venting> Anyway, I am very glad for you, Steelsack, that your work and patience have started to pay off for you.
