pyrateleather Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Currently the upstairs of our shop is the roof of our tent, if you'd like to sleep up there that will be a sight to see http://www.PyrateTradingCompany.com
Mad Jack Morgan Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 PLEASE dont give her any ideas mate!

Red Bess Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Sadly, this is a little too far to drive. I'll be hanging closer to home at MNRF during September. Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
count de monet Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 web page was finally updated sept. 13 thru the 28... weekends only hope to have the majority of our garb done ( pc ) any one else planning on going ???
LadyBarbossa Posted July 27, 2008 Author Posted July 27, 2008 Not sure yet, Count. But will keep thee advised. I'd like to attempt to make it. But, depends upon my current situation. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
theM.A.dDogge Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Not sure yet, Count. But will keep thee advised. I'd like to attempt to make it. But, depends upon my current situation. ~Lady B wot....you with child??
LadyBarbossa Posted July 28, 2008 Author Posted July 28, 2008 Nooo, MA d'Dogge. Not even. I not be that lucky or unlucky, which e'er way ye puts it. Nay, m' current situation would be involvin' other issues that would... restrain me from making it to St Louis. I do wish an' want t' go. Truly I do. But again, we shall see. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
count de monet Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 well lady b, if you do make it down, we would be more than happy to greet ya. along with an obligatory (sp.?) round on us still have to get my garb done, so "count de monet" may not make it, but "silas thatcher" will surely be there.....
LadyBarbossa Posted July 29, 2008 Author Posted July 29, 2008 Sounds like a plan, mate. Tis th' hope that if I make it there, Master Greg aka Barbossa might be there. Now, I have t' make sure I've at least a bottle o' Pirate's Choice rum for th' devil. But again, never know if I will make it down. We shall see.

count de monet Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 no camping here..... i live about 20 minutes away... i do know that clay from pyrate leatherworks stays at a motel nearby.... shoot him an email and pick his noggin for suggestions...
LadyBarbossa Posted July 29, 2008 Author Posted July 29, 2008 Hmm... makes it far more difficult when camping - historical or modern - isn't allowed. Hotels are not cheap especially when traveling from so far away. This puts a damper upon attending the event. Hmm... will see now how it goes. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

pyrateleather Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 LadyB, The very limited camping on-site is for participants only. There is supposedly a campground nearby in Wentzville or another in O'Fallon which is also close by, I don't know anything about these but they may be worth checking into... Pinewoods Park 1500 Pinewoods Dr. Wentzville, Mo 63385 Phone:(636) 327-8248 Cherokee Lakes Campground 3950 Highway 79 O Fallon, MO 63366 (636) 978-2147 The least expensive Motel we've found nearby is around $45-$55/night, it's old but not too bad and only a few of miles from the festival. My experiences there have been better if you request a non-smoking room. Crossroads Heritage Motel 404 N Business Hwy 61 Wentzville, MO 63385 (636) 327-6263 http://www.PyrateTradingCompany.com
LadyBarbossa Posted August 6, 2008 Author Posted August 6, 2008 :::eyes bug out::: There be hotels at that price?!? Tis a bleedin' miracle! Gotcha. Well, will see how it goes. I do so miss th' campin' though. Enjoyed doing that with the reenactments I attended. Easy enough to remain there, save gas rather than roaming all over. Have a good communal group, etc... Honestly need t' have more pirate events like that. Hmm... tis a grand idea for future events bein' conjured in m' head. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Merrydeath Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 blast... already doing the Des Moines and Omaha fests. I was asked about going to this grand fest, but since I have given my X on other events, I will have to say nay.. at least for this year. I"m more then a bit sorry to not be going..

count de monet Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 this is an open invite to any one wishing to attend the st. louis pirate fest in sept. since there isn't a "camp" for attendees or participants, we will gladly offer space for anyone wishing to do so... we have a very large fenced in backyard and ample parking for anyone wishing to pitch a tent. sorry , house is crowded as it is... but we do have almost an acre of yard... there is a fire pit, swimming pool for those that are hardy enough for that time of year , use of our bathrooms and showers. i know it doesn't meet up with a nice bed in a cheap hotel, but the offer is out there for anyone wishing to do so.. we are only about 30 minutes from the fest... pm me or lady constance if interested
LadyBarbossa Posted August 9, 2008 Author Posted August 9, 2008 WOO HOO!!! PARTY AT DE MONET'S!!!!! Thank ye for th' offer, mate. Ahhh... his Colours show. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Bilgemunky Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Originally I didn't think I'd be able to make it this year, but now it looks pretty positive that I should be there the first weekend - all day the 13th, and at least part of the 14th. Hope to see some of you there! I AM BILGEMUNKY
