How interesting!

Oh, what a wonderful topic! I'd venture to say all the above! Colonial Williamsburg put out content in regards to the understanding of the celestial heavens during the 18th century. Just the little bit of graphics they shared was so beyond fascinating of detailed artwork documenting planets and people fascinated with the stars. From navigational tools all around the globe to the Prague Clock Tower, surely some educated sailors were like many of their peers and Aristocrats who cultivated a hobby in Astronomy and all things related to the celestial heavens. It certainly would be interesting to know how much other cultures influenced some sailors when it comes to beliefs and superstitions of celestial occurrences. I wouldn't be surprised if Townsends will share something about this topic or even the topic of Astronomy in general sometime.

Oh, wow! What bittersweet treasured items. 🏴‍☠️

So... recently... or these past couple years, I've been called "Cute" when I'm dressed up as a pirate. I don't think Pirates are cute, but people seems to think I'm cute as a pirate. HA! Oh, what a riot. What do you think? Are Pirates cute? Can Pirates be cute? If a Pirate is called cute, are they really a Pirate? Offer yer 2 doubloons, me hearts! 🏴‍☠️

I understand that Mad Davy Flint passed away back in November. No doubt he'll be sorely missed. 😔🏴‍☠️

🤣🤣🤣 I'm damn well more than half tempted to buy one! I know my Pastor and his wife would get a monstrous kick out of it! 😆🏴‍☠️

You are most welcome. I've more than enjoyed the site for a year now. Some good info. Have yet to try any products.

OK... more amazing tea fun from the East India Company... Now it's a limited edition Boston Tea Party tea chest! Boston Tea Party merch and stories 🏴‍☠️

Stynky gets they Pirate Plunder Award of the Year for the big score of wool fabric! 😆🏴‍☠️😉👍 Seriously though, that screams major awesome project!

These are all so awesome!! Kudos to you all? Can't wait to see the finished product, TSmith! 😉 Stynky... love the mattress pad. Good luck with the cot. Hope you find a comfy one. Military surplus stores used to have canvas and wooden cots. I had one for several years until it broke. Holds up rather well really. Did anyone ever make like a portable 17th/18th c daybed for events? Does anyone use a hammock?
