Talk Like a Pirate

I had wanted to be in Oceanside for “Talk Like a Pirate” day because they were having harbor days with the pirate theme. Instead, I was in landlocked Oakhurst. So it was a delight and surprise to see a pirate ship parked in the middle of town.

It was Capn Boring’s homemade pirate ship. The figurehead was beautifully carved pegasus unicorn, and the stern was lined with golden barbie dolls.
