Pirate Party Night

Well, it was time. The Sea Chameleon hadn't had a good piratey party in a long time. We got together Friday night, one thing led to another, and we ended up with a night of Drunken Midnight(R) Croquet. "Drunken Midnight ... " (R) has become rather a pasttime for us. Last year it was Drunken Midnight Archery. At least croquet is a little safer ... or it should be, but ...



... when the Captain chooses to play croquet with an ax, one can't help but wonder. As usual, there were scuffles amongst the officers.

But in the end everyone made up.

It was a pretty fun night. I don't think I'll be doing that again for awhile!! (this staying up till 4:00 a.m. crap isn't cutting it anymore). On too little sleep, today we took advantage of the mostly good weather to finally clean up our Pennsic stuff that had been living in the yard for several weeks - unpacked everything, dried it out, and repacked it all ready to go to the storage unit. It should have made it there today, too, but it didn't quite. Probably tomorrow.

And with that, I'm tired, and probably heading for an early bed tonight.
