Y’arr: You Going to the Pirate Festival?

NEXT WEEKEND / JUNE 19th & 20th (IT’S FREE!!!)
If you are anywhere near the San Francisco Yay Area do not miss the Northern California Pirate Festival. We’ve gone all three years and have always had a blast. They turn the Vallejo waterfront into a whole pirate village with plenty of eye candy (see above), games for kids, bands, Lagunitas beer, and food. So awesome. More info.

GET IN THE PIRATE-Y MOOD
Go drink some Pirate Beer and crank this up:
