Pirates & Mermaids, Take a Look at Haunted Bookstore 2015 A kidnapped Puritan, gone a little batty…aka Jill! Howard Wu shows some lesser known skills as a pirate musician. A little not-very-high stakes dice game going on. Pirates in action. A crazy pirate lady reading, or maybe the wicked witch. Jelly fish craft, and a cute, big eyed pirate girl! Jake is ready for a dice game. Here’s a wide eyed listener! Hope those ghost stories were not too scary! Yes, Howard sounded authentically piratical. Walking the plank – easier for chicks than mermaids it turns out. Courtney, the Pirate Queen! Celica arrived just in time to help, thanks Celica! Party action. The Three Buccaneers! Katie, Katrina and Joe. Thanks for the help! Way easier to shop for books before the store gets dark and spooky! Seaweed Dip anyone? Okay, this is my favorite part! The Pirate Hook Toss game. Sarah and her dad James made a great Pirate/mermaid team! Riley photobombed by a balloon sword, but cute anyway! Best part of the bookstore. Jackie helping some royalty make jellyfish. The family costume prize winners – if there had been a contest! Mermaids Sarah and Aubrey with pirate mom Lindsey! Allie and her dad Lowell were a huge hit making balloon creatures. Thanks! Mini as the pit boss. The cutest little mermaid! Look at that tail! Aubrey with dad. Pirates can’t live on gold alone, cookies are essential. The potentially outlaw Phillips family, minus Mike Rowe. (I think he was off fixing something) Beware of sharks!
