Are there any pirates in the Vermont/New Hampshire area? I happen to live on a hill overlooking the Connecticut River in western New Hampshire, and as much as I'd love to go into Portsmouth to meet with folks, it's enough of a trip that I'd have to make it as a rare treat. But, if there's anyone on this side of the state, I'd love to join up with them.
(Note: This is the same problem I had with the SCA - all the SCAfolk in New Hampshire seem to be on the coast...)
