Ahoy All~ Here is the link to the photos from the Santa Maria event. Thanks so much to all who participated. Poppa enjoyed himself, and made it home safely, but very tired. He was glad to see so many of the family there. I wish I could have been there, it looks like everyone had a lot of fun! http://picasaweb.google.com/jamesacallahan100 Enjoy!! With Love to All, Momma and Poppa Ratsey

It's that time again for the spring Escondido Ren-faire with a Pirate Flair. Course they know there's different time periods, but nobody cares just so long as the paying public is happy. I'm suppose to sell my wares, but I've had a bit of an accident: Last night Gilligan bit me hard just under my lower lip and now my lower lip and half my lower jaw are swollen badly. I'm sitting here having to drink my coffee with a straw! My lower lip is so swollen that liquid just flows right back out trying to drink out of a cup. Although this is funny in a bad way, I look like Botox gone bad (seriously!) I'm not for putting myself out to the public the way I currently am. Rumba

I have a show to do for a church group on the 22 in Morehead NC and then we are having dinner at the Sanitary Fish Market. If anyone is in the area and wants to come in that evening in garb to hang out feel free. I can't buy your meal or drinks since I'm a youth chapperone this time but I will be in full Blackbeard attire.

I had noticed the new website now titled GoldCoastFestivals.com (formerly GoldCoastProductions.html)and there had not been any dates set for the Ojai events. So I contacted the Wixons and I got a reply from Condit who said they are working on the new site and hadn't gotten the dates up yet. The new dates for the spring Ojai event are: May 22-23, 2010

I know people are getting sick of hearing about this one already.... But.... We are currently TRYING to arrange that the September edition of this event be an all weekend deal as well. We have a few obstacles to get around before we can firm that up, but please do keep that in mind if you had a great time and would be willing to come back out for a weekend, or come out for the first time for a whole weekend... Also IF we can arrange for the September edition of the event to be all weekend, we will most likely be trying to work an evening ball into the deal as well... Again please keep in mind this is all very speculative and tentative right now, but we are trying..…

Pirates giving money to a Spanish Galleon? It's a strange world we live in. The Columbus Santa Maria has been good to our pirate group and it is in a budget squeeze so we are doing a benefit to help the ship. All proceeds will be automatically donated to the ship. Note the starting bid is the minimum for Ebay charitable donations. See here for a list of items. It may be a couple of days before everything is listed so check back.

Hey all, This is more of an "after-action report" than an event announcement... But this past weekend myself and my wife and a handful of others did a demo style event on the reproduction of the Santa Maria here in downtown Columbus Ohio. We had a lot of fun, and got to meet some other local folks that are similar minded so it was a great day all in all. My Photobucket account has a bunch of photos taken throughout the day for those inclined to want to take a peek. There was some talk about the possibility of doing a second "mini-event" of this type later in the summer or perhaps in the autumn, just in case there is anyone in the Columbus area that might be interested (…

This thread will be to cover the items being sold in and discussions about the "Dead Man's Chest" auction to be held to raise money to help keep the Santa Maria replica on the Scioto River in downtown Columbus Ohio afloat. First a few details. After a fair bit of discussion within the Scioto Pirates, and plenty of idea brain storming, we decided to best way for us to do the auction was via eBay. Doing the auction through eBay will allow both participants AND those who are not able to make it able to bid on items at their own discretion. As eBay allows auction length only up to two weeks, the "Official" auctions will be set up two weeks before the event and from there bi…

Mikey might I suggest another thread for just the necessary information... this is one is getting long to shift through... We obviously have the what, but do we have exactly the when, such as when can we truly arrive by, who we need to speak to when we get there, When do we have to be packed up and out of there? has parking been set in stone yet? If so exactly where (as in actual addresses and such for the mapquest folks) Will parking be free or is there cost? What exactly needs to be packed, approximately how much powder(roughly how many rounds to fire) Any idea of what the schedule will be? What you want demonstrated and by whom?
