A good inn caters to that comfort that one seldom finds outside of one's own bed, or one's mother's kitchen and one's grandmother's parlor all rolled into one. Me make patrons into kings and queens here, but with less ceremony.

We double up the pillow cases on the Kate. Nothing but the best.

We have our pillows flown in on geese. Well, they are geese. Plucked.

We'll need a pillow for Miss Ashcombe.

Tonight's dessert tray...

Your liver would be good with onions, marinated as it is. Just touch off a match.

I found Boo Gator. Well at least I sent him a Private Message on another site inviting him to register on the Pub, so we'll see if he turns up.

That's what I like to see. Early recruits. Now start working on the rest. Someone needs to find Boo. Hell, I'm going to go find him right now.

1681...? Excellent.

Here, here! And afterwards we'll have a fiddler for dancing and share a bottle of French oak single malt scotch...finish-aged 15 years.

You...BOY! Captain Sterling shall have a seat at the head of the table. Hop to it! Can I interest you in a fine Pomeral, Captain?

Spinach, cheese and roasted tomatoes...?

Speaking of food, you should go to PIP next year. The food was very good, owing to several good cooks in the camp and some good places to eat inland. All very nice food and a good atmosphere to boot.

But of course. Please...have a seat. I shall see to it that you are served two portions at least, to speak nothing of the bread that is forthcoming.

Because it is never too early... This list is provided as a roll call throughout the year to gage the number of attendees who are staying inside and outside the Fort Zachary Taylor Historical Park at PIP 2008. The attendees will be listed by camp (period or modern) or hotel. Attendees may be a part of any encampment without camping inside the park and interaction during the festival is not limited to camping arrangements. The list merely reflects names and sleeping arrangments of attendees and the list will be updated towards the end of the year with a "confirmed" status for those attendees who have secured their transportation to and from the event. There are many period camps under the pines and palms along the beach. There is also period camping inside the fort in the 1680 Port Royal Buccaneer Camp, the Red Coat Camp and the Sutler Camp, as well as modern camping and hotels. We would like everyone to sound off as often as they can with updates on when, where and how they will be attending PIP 2008. If you do not know where you will be staying, you may still be posted to this tentative list. Please send me names, tents, hotels, encampment information, etc. For information on the period camps or other arrangements, please see the other threads in the Pirates in Paradise forum, or post your questions here.

The Cook, Captain and Quartermaster all get the best cuts of meat. It is the proximity to table that makes one important. Benefits of service whatever the calling.

You are most welcome, Doctor. And now...the Liberty Clipper.

Dorian invited her to walk about the deck then and see the Lucy in more detail. With fresh paint and freshly polished cannon, the cutter was now as new as her name and Murin did not decline to see her. William, as busy as he would be that day, did not mind another walk about the ship, for she was a good prize and an admirable companion to the 'Dog. As they made a turn about the weatherdecks they were joined by Mister Pew, who came aboard the Lucy with only a little difficulty. William made a point of addressing him informally as he arrived , Miss Kildare's letter still fresh in his mind. Preston paused, but no real expression crossed his face at being addressed by his given name. The man looked pale for his walk that morning, but no worse for wear and William was glad to see him by daylight and said as such. "Thank you, Captain." Pew said, looking about the deck of the Lucy with the new appraisal of a man whose position in life has been altered by many changes, and indeed his had. "The Lucy." he said, almost as flatly as William had just minutes before, neither a question or comment. They both looked at Dorian. "Aye." was all he said, then added. "Welcome aboard."

I was up late cooking bacon wrapped shrimp. Today's special is Italian lentil and vegetable soup...

William inclined his head, but waited again for Miss McDonough to start the conversation anew. When she did not he looked to Dorian, who asked, "What brings you aboard th' Lucy, lass?"

William raised a brow and exchanged a look with Dorian. "Send a smallboat and the smallboat is given the greater glory." William looked back at Murin. "Nevermind that the 'Dog was the port of origin." Dorian nodded, smiling. Both Captains stood before Miss McDonough and waited for her to continue.

Captain Lasseter granted her permission and she came aboard by the gangplank. "Welcome aboard th' Lucy, Miss McDonough." William said, offering her a hand as she stepped down from the rail. "Seeking a new berth so soon?"
