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