It is February. Outdoors it is still bone shivering cold. So much so that when your alarm rings, at that un-Godly hour of the morning, you don't want to unwrap the cocoon-like blanket nest that you buried yourself in the night before and allow your body to be shocked awake by the brisk morning air. You peer out your window and see that the white stuff continues to fall from the sky and although you spent a good half an hour shoveling last night, you cannot see the progress of your effort. You are thinking "Spring" must be around the corner but as a Minnesotan you instinctively know that we're looking at another 2 months (Tax Day) until we can legitimately store our winter gear away.
Anticipating Spring and Tax Day, your thoughts start to wander. Maybe you might get an early refund? Maybe you can jet off to that tropical location for a week at the end of March so you can forget about the white stuff, RTTT, MDE, PLCs, PBIS and ISS. Ahhhh....is it too much to ask?
The River Rats can't promise you that tropical vacation but we can offer you a get-a-way of sorts:
Today, Friday, Feb. 12 at 3:30 at Mancini's Char House on West 7th Street in St. Paul.
Show up and check in. Share your triumphs, failures or your all time favorite desert island song (if you could have only one song with you, what would it be)...no one will judge you. We all need a shoulder to lean on, a pat on the back or possibly someone whose "got your back". The River Rats are there for you.
Hope to see you there.
