Florida's Treasured Pirates!

[LadyBarbossa]

My parents get AAA's "Home & Away" magazine for the Minnesota/Iowa region.

In the Sept/Oct issue they talk about pirate fests in Florida. What makes this SOOO cool is that it's a cover story! The cover is REALLY fine for a pirate such as I... a chest overflowing with GOLD!

Covering 3 pages, the article has a few good pictures of pirates on the Jose Gasparilla. As well as a singing group of pirates at Pirates in Paradise... plus a picture from the Disneyworld Pirates of the Caribbean ride... & a cute kid looking like a pirate with a penciled in 5 o'clock shadow.... aww, really cute.

There is mention in there of Pirates in Paradise fest even when it is & who to contact calling this a fantastic event & must go to as well as the Gasparilla fest. Mentioning of Mel Fisher Maritime Museum... the Ghost Tours of St. Augustine as well as the re-enactment of Robert Seales historic invasion upon St. Augustine.

If anyone is able to get their hands upon this issue of "Home & Away"... I STRONGLY suggest it for pirates! What a GREAT way for the pandlubbers of the northern midwest to be shown pyracy & have their own version of plunder & treasure.

Any posibility for ordering this magazine from the Netherlands Europe?

It's still POTC, Geoffrey, Barbossa, etc that's keeping me sane..by keeping my mind on other things...

How would one go about acquiring a copy of such an article? Not bein' an AAA member, I haveno idea how they distribute, or where they be sold.

Singing group at Pirates in Paradise, ye say? Anybody we know?

Charity, why wait to come into money to follow yer heart?

Charity, why wait to come into money to follow yer heart?

Ahh, believe me, it's quite impossible.

I won't give up though, i might not make it to Florida but i'll sure as heck go to the British one someday, and maybe each year after that, who knows?

Hurricane, cool link, thanks!

ROTFLMAO..that skeleton has a seagull nestling on his hat!

Thanks for the good laugh, i needed it!

I had to go through my mum's things today from the nursinghome..hard, very hard, so this was needed, and a good laugh it is ROTFL

I have made it my personal quest to appear in as many photos, in as many places, as possible.

So far, so good.

That was a particularly fun day in Key west. We had a great time jamming with the Rusty Cutlasses, Bawdy Be, and the rest of the scurvy pirate gang.

Charity, luv, my heart goes out to ya. Hang in there, lass.

Thanks Nigel

Seing you, do you guys sell your music?

If so, payable by Paypal?

It's time i get some "pirate music" :)

Thanks by the way.

I feel like crap right now but i realise it was needed, i was in denial too much.

Oh well, i'll survive, but it's hard times..
