Hmmm the museum staff told us October 26th, not that one day would make that much of a difference.

Very nice. That would make a very nice period painting, and the rest of the pictures are grand.

Well thank ye very much William, if I had the cash I would commission ye to do the portrait, but alas...

Relax, since when do I listen to my father?

Besides too busy researching and creating a log book... The Archangel... or The Travels of JC Sterling, Cousin Robbin & Houndogge... OR HOW NOT TO STEER A BOAT!!

Even if we gave the log book away, no one would ever believe it...

Papa Sterling would me mum be from Barcelona?

Inbreeding?? I'm not my own 1st uncle-cousin am I ?

I finally figured out that I might be Cap't Sterling's illegitimate love child, I just don't who me mum is and they wouldn't tell me at the home. He says I'm too old to his, but look at the resemblance, the long flowing locks, etc.

Can anyone help me?

You guys are killin me!!!

I soo hate this rotating damn schedule!!

To the Family,

As always a job well done, a bit too well done perhaps as ye sold out the exhibit both nights, the second being done in less than two hours and then ye all became the exhibit. I will get ye all a total of numbers but so far ye dealt with 4000 on Thursday and 9000 on Friday. And Mr. Merriweather is a celebrity now... as we were entering the building Friday a group of boys saw him and started pointing and saying amongst themselves Look its John King from Whydah....his head no longer fits his hat! A special thanks to Maddogge, Grace and Cheeky for all the great photos, can't wait to see em posted! Between Maddogge "collecting" everyone's valubles at the check in and stopping traffic out on the street, to Bess's teeth(thanks for remembering all them gold coins for the kids)Billie and Gwen with Gunner's pet from the new world (all night long all ye could hear were kids and women screaming) and Dutch and Lilly swamped at the navigation/gaming table, Mr. Symms assisting the table, Madame Grace (who even got the chance to sing with Mary!), the lads in their new pirate pose, Pete Staw with his bag of gems, Mad Mary, Jamie (Yer kit is coming together beautifully, keep up the good work!), Carl, Charlton and the lovely English, Mr. Bottles and Bryan talking to all the folks and having Mr. March with us once again...AND HAVING GUNS AND SWORDS!!! It was hard work but well worth every second!

A grand job of it all!! The staff is thrilled and we will be back for their events over the summer as well as the Family Field Day next Saturday.

Thank ye again for all that ye do and do so well!
