I just can't believe I forgot my camera today! We drove to Westport for the pirate festival- I've never seen so many pirates! All ages of people pirates, even the dogs were piratical! I did buy a disposable camera, though it will take a few days before I can get anything from that to put in here. I did get several good shots of our local movie star, the Lady Washington (a two-masted brigantine that starred in the Pirates of the Carribean movies). She's back in her usual paint job now, and looking much cheerier for it. She was built in a town on the way to Westport, so she was really at home today, been touring around a bit though. Oh, I hope I hope those photos turn out!

Wow! A pirate festival, eh?
Glad Ron did not know or he may not have come to see Pete and me in the sheepdog trial (we did do well!) Isn't the Lady Washington lovely?
I wrote a short story about pirates a few years ago for Ron. He loves them. On our deck we have a cannon pointed at the neighbor's home and we always display a Jolly Roger.
I'm certain that it has been a topic of discussion in the neighborhood.
Glad you had fun and I want to see the pics.
