happy thoughts for my brother!!! (long) i added a picture

my brother opened up his very first deli on tuesday of this week - he's 26 years old and has been working in delis since he was like 16, so this was a huge deal for him. my dad owned a deli when we were younger - so it's kind of like a tradition.

well, at 2:20am today - some guy driving down the street swerved to hit another car and drove his car directly into my brother's deli! It desroyed the entire front of the store (brickwork, steel frame - everything). Thankfully, no one was hurt - not even the guy he hit as his car went into the store (!).

But now my brother's brand new deli - which has only been open for three days is a complete mess. I just got back from there and it looks like a tornado hit it - it's awful.

So I would appreciate if you have any extra happy thoughts - if you could send them his way.....im not big into praying, but if you are - and want to send one his way, i'd appreciate that also.

Thanks!!

This is what you see as you walk into the deli...
