Calico Ann Rackham

Big Kudos to the Renegade Raven for the huge amount of work she put into not only the Festival but the Ball!!

Thank you so much for you kind words, Diosa. I also want to thank you for helping our... SQUIRREL... first festival be the success it was. You truly were a great asset to us. As Raven said, there was a lot of sweat, tears and blood involved. I know I accidentally stabbed my fencing partner in the leg. Looking forward to Southern Pirate Festival 2011!!! Calico Ann Rackham Crew Surgeon of The Cursed Few

Thank ye fer the good birthday wishes, mates!

Wonderful pictures Poppa. They are great. Thank you for sharing them.

Hmmm, I kinna think bein' stuck in 'ere with all the blokes might be a good thin', aye!

Aye, my mate, Bloody Sam Rackham and I will be attending this event. There is going to be a lot going on. The Pride Of Baltimore II sloop and the HMS Bounty are both slated to be there.

Bloody Sam and I are looking forward to sailing on this beautiful vessel in August!!

I didn't get to see the cannons fired when we were there on vacation last Summer. I sure did hear them! We did get to see the ones fired at the Gathering last November. I also got a chance to meet Tiger Lee. He does some really good work. I knew about the pub crawls. I just wasn't sure when they were. I will make sure our pirate friends in St. Augustine know the next time we are coming down that way. It only took one trip to St. Augustine for it to become one of our favorite places!

Oh, I am sure that when we make it down there, it will be at least for a weekend. I am going to talk to our Cap'n and see about getting a couple more from our crew to come down with us. It will be grand to sail with you and Barbary!

I really wish Bloody Sam and I could have been there to see her sail into port. I know that had to be a beautiful site. sam and I will be down there sometime this summer. Maybe in August. We plan on booking a sail. And of course, we plan on going in our garb.

The Duck race was a lot of fun. We really had a grand time! I am glad we were able to be a part of it!

The time fer the duck race be drawing near. Blood Sam, our daughter and meself are gettin' excited about being there! See ya in a few weeks!

Aye, she is a site to behold. Can't wait to see her up close and personal!

Sounds like a blast, King...I wish Bloody Sam and i could be there to see that!

Happy birthday to your Mum. She and my Mum share the same birthday. My mom will be 82.
