Thanks again to the National Mississippi River Museum. We had a great weekend, and I hope that their Pirate Festival becomes an annual event. It was a pleasure meeting and greeting all of you. Countless pictures were taken, treasure was given away and the Captain's crew grew considerably.

The next major, public, event is Bastille Days in Milwaukee. The Captain won't be there, but his long lost French pirate "cousin" will be. ;) He'll be part of a crew and a French Captain...causing all kinds of grief to the patrons of the festival. Please check the calendar for event dates and times.
