Arrrrrghhh!

Avast ye mortals, it's time ye walked the plank!

It's International Talk Like a Pirate Day, and we're celebrating it by unveiling one of the props we're going to use on the pirate ship at YoYo Joe's. It's a life-size replica of a pirate cannon! With a real piratey kinda guy behind it! Local artist Andre Kerr made this cannon for an exhibition and has loaned it to us for the pirate ship. The piratey dude behind it is Ethan, our son.

Andre, by the way, is making us a grove of palm trees for the store. I first saw his work at Dogfish Head in Rehoboth, where he had several dogfish carvings for sale.
