Welcome back Diosa! Enjoyed all the mayhem at Ft Gaines!

Did you actually sleep all night? LOL

I've never named any of my vehicles, bikes, guns. I know other people do, but I've just never been in the habit...

From a 9yo kid... "Are you allright?"

NAUGHTY flies and no seeums!

So, we have finished baking the Queen's cakes! Huzzah! We made the following flavors:

Pound cake with icing

Spice cake with walnuts and raisins

Gingerbread

Cranberry Walnut

Rum Raisin

Almond pound cake

Orange Vanilla pound cake.

We plan on walking around and sharing these and the pralines with all the pirates.

Queen's cake hawkers! I love it!

Does this mean we need to paint our heels red?

Sea shanties singing at night?

Do you know any? 

They did sea chanties at Dana Point but I was never musically inclined so I struggle to remember them

Your goal was a very ambitious one, and you did well executing!

Just hide it until the event, then there will be some left! or... maybe he'll make more...

The transparent tent! You could do a cut away display with period camp gear!

I'm amazed you got that to work!

I imagine it puts some stress on the ridgepole connectors too, but between those and the ropes/stakes looks like you got it covered...

When I asked, I actually gave the context of coral or hard pack and needing heavy duty stakes. So I take it to be soft ground.

I can't wait for the "Things Overheard at Massacre Island" thread!

He replied right away. "Soft grass". He camped there last year for the event also...

I made this hat from a blank in 2019 (black one). Only been wearing it sparingly since there was not much for events til this year.  I was working on a hat for the GF and after I added the lining to hers, I thought... whoa, what about mine?  So I added a lining last night.

The gray one started as one of those flioppy hats from the thrift store that was a bit tight. I removed the commercial lining, stretched it to size, reshaped it, sprayed multiple coats of the Shellac formula, and added a hatband and buckle.
