  1. Who needs shoes for this event and what size? We're thinking that if you sound off with the need and your size, others may chime in with shoes they have for sale. We can also pass on specific links if something comes up on eBay, Etsy, or ?
  2. I've really not worried much about stockings in the past. I've focused on the major clothing items for the most part. But I think I may have bought some of the above cause I have a couple pair that are heavier and tend to bunch up at the ankles without garters (otherwise known as "cankles", just ask Wendy LOL) if someone comes up with a good source, I'll be there.

  4. Reviving this thread. Looking for a bit of help on Period (1680-1720) cooking utensils. Not personal utensils, but actual cooking tools. Can anyone recommend books on the subject? The plan is to build a traveling cooking utensil set that can fly in checked baggage (a duffel). Also realizing there may need to be compromises with this approach. Attached is a photo of the Ships oven from the Mary Rose (1511), and a typical 18th century kitchen.
  5. Check the Event Calendar, it's late June this year. Manhattan Beach is like 20 minutes north of Long Beach, so you could day trip if desired. William and I camped with the Dana Point NHEF crew which was 1 of only 2? overnite crews. Although there were other camps, nearly all were day tripping. I'm sure I can get you and Marty in the camping group, but the event plans are typically announced fairly late.
  6. So... ye got a full pint, not a half-pint!
  7. Welcome back just doesn't seem enough. From the looks of it you would make a great Viking too. You are a bit of a legend in Pyrate circles (I don't mean the noose, or empty bottle kind of circles tho... LOL). Yes, look into the event Stynky mentioned, its late April in Georgia. Good historic events have been hard to come by, this one has promise.
  8. We need a Goonies ball with outrageous pirates
  9. Hic... I received the Apple Pie from DB Couper, bought at Ft Gaines Dead Man's Chest Auction. I still have a bottle left.

  18. Saw this in the news today: https://www.yahoo.com/news/colombia-try-raise-objects-1708-181118094.html If we were true pirates, we would mortgage a submarine or raise an army to go pirate the booty... 11 Million Gold and Silver coins and Emeralds worth BILLIONS at current prices (and that's just what was officially listed in the manifest).
  19. Yup - got a whole bottle of Apple Pie from DB Couper (bought at the Ft Gaines Auction before the mast). I think thats perfect to toast our fallen brothers and sisters.
  20. I received a gift from Red-Handed Jill. It's under the tree, for now...
