Goddess of Whoop Ass and Baltimore
February 2006

 
 
 
 
 
 

It was a fine weekend of learning, feasting, and fish.  Throughout the day on Saturday, workshops and demonstrations were held to entertain and teach the masses.  In the evening a wonderful feast was provided by Wilhelm and Arduina (Happy Birthday!).  Wilhelm, king of the woods, formally challenged His Majesty King Kenneth for the crown of Markland, which was cordially accepted.  After the last song was played and the grog barrel emptied, we retired for the night.  The next day we visited the National Aquarium in Baltimore and shopped along the inner harbor.  Pirates feel right at home on the waterfront, see!?
