TalesOfTheSevenSeas Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 It be time for the Goldcoast Pirate Faire at Ojai again, Sept 25th & 26th 2004!! ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!! Tales of the Seven Seas will be out in force this year, with a large band o' pirates!! Come by our encampment or email me if you'd like to join us! Last year we had a grand time- even Jeff, our skeleton in the barrel came home with fond memories... We awoke one morning and found him with a pair of ladies panties clutched in his hands!! (We never did discover who the panties belonged too and Jeff ain't sayin'!) Last year we were across the way from the Rum Runners camp. Not only did we enjoy their company and home-brewed rum, but we also enjoyed several fencing matches with them. I'll be wagering my dubloons on Sasha! She be a deceptively pretty little wench, but a real she-devil with a sword! The Royaliste's deck guns were on display last year and provided firings throughout the event. I especially remember the final firing, which lofted a smoke ring over the faire! During the morning meeting last year, Captain Gary and Raul were complimented on the fine job they did managing the cannon area with great attention to safety, yet plenty of fun. So who here is coming for the '04 Pirate Faire?!!!!!!!!!!! -Claire "Poison Quill" Warren Pyrate Mum of Tales of the Seven Seas www.talesofthesevenseas.com
privateer Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 aye I'll be there. I need ta expand me wardrobe a wee bit before then or maybe there. me brother has a house in ventura so it won't be such a drive.
Capt. Iron Faith Cutler Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 Ooo, I'd really like to come out there for this. But there's no Amtrak station in Ojai. How far is it from LA? I could take the train into Ventura. How is Ojai for hotels? Iron Faith A pyrate's life for me.
privateer Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 there be a few hotels in Ojai. most are pretty spendy. resort/health spa sorta things. it's been about two years since I've been there. so it might be a bit different by now. ya could take the amtrack ta ventura and take a city bus up from there or give me a call and we could meet in ventura. its about a two hour drive (at night) from L.A. ..day time , double that time.it's maybe twenty minutes from ventura. where is the faire at exactly ?
Red Maria Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 Privateer The faire is on the shores of Lake Casitas. There is camping nearby if hotels be too dear for you. I'll be up there with the Port Royal Privateers. Capt Faith As to Amtrak go on there website and enter you start point and destination (I confirmed there is still a station in Ventura, CA). There should be a bus up there or as Privateer offered ... Hope you can make it!
Desert Pyrate Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Arrr.... all o' ye in CA be havin' no excuse not t' make it. Me lass and meself already are plannin' on the 13 hour drive from New Mexico to make it to Ojai. Hopefully it all works out, I can't wait!
Iron Bess Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 It's a home faire for mself and the Port Royal Privateers. I'll be there! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
the Royaliste Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Hmm, still dunno whether I'll be by land or by sea....More news after the haulout...... :)
TalesOfTheSevenSeas Posted June 26, 2004 Author Posted June 26, 2004 Ahoy mates! Here be yer HOTEL INFO -Claire "Poison Quill" Warren Pyrate Mum of Tales of the Seven Seas www.talesofthesevenseas.com
Rumba Rue Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 I'll miss seeing all of you, as I will be out of the country at the time. I heard some interesting stories from last year, so I hope to hear some better ones this year! Rumba Rue ** **
Capt Grey Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 I wants t'go t'this shindig and meets up with me fellow pirates. Be there a web site fer this? I needs t'hoard me gold fer the adventure. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
privateer Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 here ye be http://www.goldcoastfestivals.com/piratefestpg1.html should be fun
Capt. Iron Faith Cutler Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 Anybody have recommendations for places to stay in Ventura? Ojai looks a bit pricey and I don't have any camping equipment. I always prefer funky and unusual (but clean) places to corporate chains. A pyrate's life for me.
William Brand Posted June 29, 2004 Posted June 29, 2004 Arrrrrr. I might be thar. I well might. Aye. Â Â Â

So I'll be payin' me shillin's wit' the rest o'them but it be fer a good cause. I'll be lookin' forward t'seein' me mates and showin' off me new pirate finery. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.

Black Hearted Pearl Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 I'm looking at me calendar wondering how I can do both the Dana Point Tall Ship and the Ojai Faire. But me mates going to China and I would have to bring me youngins if I were to try and make it. Now don't say "Bring them along". You haven't met me criminals and they make the naughty pirates of Ojai look like SAINTS and they only be 10, 9 and 7 years old. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.
Rumba Rue Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 Well Pearl, if'n ye gots ta bring the young criminals-in-trainin' I suggest Ojai. More camping area available, an' more things for them ta do an' see. Rumba Rue **Smile and make people wonder what you're up to**
Iron Bess Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 Now don't say "Bring them along". You haven't met me criminals and they make the naughty pirates of Ojai look like SAINTS and they only be 10, 9 and 7 years old. Ooooh, go aheag now and bring 'em along. I be after need'n fresh bait!! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
the Royaliste Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 Aye!!..An' we always be a needin' new powder monkey's at RR rate 'o fire!! (hair 'singed' 'n styled at no cost!)
