Just came from TOT awhile ago and everyone is doing fine. It looks like most of the damage happened where the kitchen met the bar area. Those of you that are familiar know where the cooler was between the two, that is where the fire came through from the back where the gas tank exploded. the tv that was hanging up there disintegrated along with the shelf that held all of the direct tv and satelite boxes. also part of the large furniture that held the bottles of boose was also burnt. the actually bar and dining area appear to be just fine. shouldn't be long before the place is back up and running. there were many friends of the Time Out family there tonight ready to lend a helping hand so it shouldn't take long to get the place back open. i'm sure steven or glenn will chime in at some point to keep you guys updated
good news steve hang in there......good job mickey and jerryWhat can I say? Not very often that I am at a loss for words. The 1st person I called was my wife to let her know we had lost everything we had worked for over the last 2.5 years or so. Unbelieveable to me the fire dept. arrived in 7 minutes. I owe all of them a world of thanks. I am not exactly sure what happened but it was a problem with the propane. Our dear friends showed up in support very rapidly and this tragedy of ours turned into quite a small party.....damn I am just noticing I still smell like smoke....I want to give a huge thanks to all our friends who showed up to help both physically and financially.
We have been truly blessed here in Costa Rica. ....god dammit I am just coming to trars here for the 1st time today. We are all fine and thankfully no one was hurt. We were very lucky. I thought for sure we we going to have a fatality with Carlos, one of our cookks who have been with us since the beginning. Damn we are truly blessed. We are commited to come back stronger and better than ever. We are even going to get a new ceiling put in....lol....so much for the Black Tarp Inn....but we may reen as the Fire House Saloon thanks to our great friend Chris from DGS. A special thanks goes out to Mickey from CRIS, who was one of the 1st there to offer his support and to Sateliite Jerry who offered to have us back up and running no matter what it takes. You guys are the best.
