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