Gunpowder Gertie Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 (edited) Oh aye! NorCal was the best... it took us about 19 hours t' drive back..but it was worth ever blessed minute! I stayed up late looking thru the pictures I took- and I have a bunch o' good ones. AND 3 hours of video to go thru- at which point I shall edit together a travelogue style music video- which I will then post a link to! Amazing t' meet y'all- sorry I missed y' Jill! We had a terrific time, hanging out with our pirate brethren- (and the pirate sistern!) As always The Pirate Charles rocked the event- but the other entertainment was excellent as well! And the food- tastiest meat pies this side of Mrs. Lovett's! Arrrrrrrrrrr! I am so overwhelmed t' be back- but I'll post some pictures when I calm down..the drive was fierce in the hot sun- and me air conditionin' be AWOL, y'see...but I see next year's NorCal in my future. And- was able t' arrive home- with bottles o' Kraken rum- and Pyrat XO special reserve rum..which we can't get here in the wild's o' Vancouver...believe me- I looked. Oi- and I'll post a link t' me video- o' the wanking kraken- when I can... Edited June 23, 2010 by Gunpowder Gertie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ransom Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 As a member of the Black Spot Dancers, I say.....WE ROCKED! LOL Thank-you, Quartermaster James for capturing us with Gertie's camera. That was a total hoot! Just goes to show you, a girl can spend an hour firing cannons shipboard, then come back and dance her toes off. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.
