What happened at the RAT fest.......

Looks like a fun time was had by all. And it's a good thing there was a nurse present. Have to be careful with all of those knives, axes and booze combined.

Regards, Les.
 
Yep, the Beav is way too cute. You can tell that she knows how cute she is and isn't afraid to use it as grown man cryptonite. lol
 
Now that I'm back at work, I've got time to log on to BFC and chime in on this wonderful thread. First, I am the Damn Dirty RAT! My injury is proof that no matter what precautions you take, sometimes shit still goes wrong. Ironically, I was showing Shawna's boys how to position your feet in such a way when chopping wood that they would never be in the arc of blade swing. Unfortunately, that's when Murphy decided to drop by for a visit. Instead of biting into the limb I was cutting, my hatchet bounced off and deflected on a 90 degree angle to the arc of the swing... right into my left ankle. At first, I thought it was just a hit by the blunt side and didn't notice for a few minutes that I'd put a hole through my pants, two socks, and into my ankle. In all honesty, the worst part was the impact itself; the cut was relatively small although it bled for quite some time. Now, three days later, the swelling is reducing and bruising is a wonderful shade of purple and my ankle stiffens up pretty damn quick if I keep it still for very long.

Despite the minor setbacks of rain and injury, the weekend was an absolute blast. The generosity, selflessness, humor, and overall friendliness of these wonderful people has renewed my faith in humanity. I am honored to have shared such a great experience with them.

Oh, I'll post some pictures of the swelling and bruising when I get home tonight.

Ironically, the one time the whole weekend that Richard was able to complete whole sentances was when he hurt himself..... Go figure.

Just kidding, just kidding.
 
HEY! Who's going in who's tent?! There's chocolate?! And I'm not involved?! How rude! ;)

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
 
you could have tried just offering me one of those snicker bars i KNOW you had in your cooler:D

Dang, I hadn't thought of that. I guess that's similar to the whole catch more bees with honey thing.

Uh... I mean, no I wasn't trying to get nobody in my tent! :D

I thought I saw one of those rug rats running around with a brownie! No wonder my boys were over on the "good" side of the street!! Well all I can say is they are my boys. They have their priorities right. Now if they would just share!!
