Lily Alexander Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 First of all, a HUGE thank you to Blackbeards crew and all the crew's for the hard work and effort in giving us a pirate festival we can be proud to be a part of. Captain Pern, it was a pleasure spending the day sailing with you. Least I forget Dutch. You got me good :) I owe you one. To Captain Sterling and the crew of the Archangel. There is no one I would rather spend 3 days in the mud with. You guys are the absolute best friends and family a pirate hunter could ask for. To the Boneys, You all should be so proud of the work you've done on your kits. You looked wonderful. As always, the time spent with you is a gift of love, laughter and friendship. I miss you all and can't wait to see you guys again. Mama, Papa and the crew of the Sacred Heart. What more can I say than I love you guys. One of the highlights of the festival for me, was the capture of 2 long guns from the marines. hehehe. As Cheeky stated, I took the "sweet and innocent" approach on the first one. I struck up a conversation with the marine about guns and told him my interest in purchasing one. And that I was concerned about my height and the ability to handle the gun safely. So, I asked him if I could hold it to check out the length. Voila. Capture of gun number one. The second gun is a harrowing tale and a lady never tells her secrets. Thank you all for a wonderful weekend. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Bess Hagarty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Capture of gun number one. The second gun is a harrowing tale and a lady never tells her secrets. Come now! We've been waiting three full days for this tale! Do tell...PLEASE Bess Hagarty - Indentured Servant
Lily Alexander Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Now now now Bess. I can't just go blabbing my secrets for all to hear. One never knows when this skill may come in handy again. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Bess Hagarty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 He tried to hide...he tried to go unnoticed...but how can you not notice such a sweet face?! Bess Hagarty - Indentured Servant
Bess Hagarty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Now now now Bess. I can't just go blabbing my secrets for all to hear. One never knows when this skill may come in handy again. Very well...(shrug... ), but perhaps you will share your secret with me after my indenturship is over with. I be looking for a husband soon enough. Bess Hagarty - Indentured Servant

Capt Thighbiter Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 I have to say that the camps keep getting bigger and better every year we are there. You all out did yourselves! Great to see some of our old friends and to meet some of the folks from Pyracy (who had time to stop for 2 minutes and talk). We had a lot of fun Sunday 'branding' kids and some parents with the Pyracy P ( ink of course). Pirate music at it's best, from 1650 onwards The Brigands
GentlemenScotty Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 AYE..ditto..diTTO...and DITTO!!! twas 1 great fest mates...and hats off ta all ye that had a part in the planning and laboring :] GS
LadyBarbossa Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 A memorable moment: When Rusty Nell and Bess the indentured servant were about the harbor marketplace on Saturday morning and they befriended a British Marine. Bess made inquiries about his rank and position…and I could have made this up…"I am just a lowly Pirate…" (Ooops, I think he meant to say "Private" but he seemed to have been distracted by Nell for some reason Nell and Bess just looked at each other and ran with the moment. They quickly alerted the Sergeant about there being dissention in the ranks….It was very interesting to see a British Marine back-peddle so quickly to save his hide! Okay you lot....Let's hear your memorable moments.....Tell 'em here if you got them! ROTDLMAO!!! Oh, I bet that was a hell of a sight to behold. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Cheeky Actress Posted June 12, 2009 Author Posted June 12, 2009 Who had time? Yes, you are right. Between getting dressed, eating before the skits, cleaning up, setting up living history areas, running about to find 'said missing stool and Flag' and other things going on...you do have a good point!

Lily Alexander Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Boy did Dutchie get me good. I hate to admit this but he actually hugged me with it under his arm and I didn't even notice. Sheesh, the man is good. I wonder if Pern found his surprise? If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Cheeky Actress Posted June 12, 2009 Author Posted June 12, 2009 I wonder if Pern found his surprise? Would this be a good surpirse or a bad surprise, Lily? Member of "The Forsaken"
LadyBarbossa Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 As always, Cheeky, ye and Sterling look mah-valous. Fine coat ye have there, Sterling. Mighty fine. Might want t' keep that one close and hidden. Might come up missing. :) ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed."

Lily Alexander Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I wonder if Pern found his surprise? Would this be a good surpirse or a bad surprise, Lily? It's a good surprise The "item" that came home with Edward and I, after PIP, has now been passed on to the next pirate. I'm glad to have it out of my closet. Once I know Pern has found said "item", I'll elaborate. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
