Ratty Challenge Banner 2016 DRAFT

We're here! Come party with us!

A brave group of six entered the Ratty at 7:30 on the dot this morning, greeted by none other than GAIL HERSELF. (Hiiiii.) Big thanks to Charlie, Hayley, and Max for providing guest swipes for Elaine, Derek, and Zoe. And Jeanelle joined us soon afterwards, looking very bright-eyed and awake.

We actually completed an additional challenge this morning before we got here - The Walking Through Several Inches of Snow to the Ratty Challenge Challenge. It was tough, but we bested it. And it was nice to have a little outdoor time before...you know...this.

We really thought that by getting here right at 7:30, we'd be the first patrons here, but somehow Leber beat us, still working on that paper that's been plaguing him for 4+ years:

Maybe this will be the year he finally finishes it.

Photo essay below the jump (just kidding there's no jump because this isn't that kind of fancy webpage):

Look at all that fresh powder!


Thanks, swipe team, aka inadvertent Axelrod team! (Charlie Moder: "I used to be on baby meal plan, but now I'm back on big-boy meal plan.")

Gail doing what she does best - being the highlight of our morning.


Derek is here too! With a bag of goodies (it's drugs (it's not drugs)).

~*~We've got the power (strips)~*~

Jeanelle is so awake!

Can't wait to see you all here!!!! .5 hours down, 11.5 to go.
