hippie mormon pirates

Last night when we were walking by the river we saw a pretty awesome tall ship. Today when we were out and about we saw that you could take a free tour, so we did. It was really, really cool. Mr. P tried out being a pirate:

Then we noticed that there was one man, and a bunch of women and girls making pottery. on the ship.


Mr. P grabbed a pamphlet and we promptly got off that boat. He just read it to me, and I am not sure exactly what religion they are but it sounds like a cross between mormon and hippie and they live on that boat and drive it up and down the eastern seaboard selling pottery and accepting donations.

Then we went to an art gallery where I fell.IN.LOVE with this glass hangy sculpture.

Then we got a cup of crab chowder and loaf of french bread and some garlicy cheese sauce. and then $35 worth of candy at the fudge/caramel apple/gummy store. I swear at least $2.78 worth is for Eli.

That is what I was going to say...that it looked like a giant jelly fish! That is very cool...

Love the jelly fish. I always spend a ridiculous amount of money on fudge when we're on vacation, too. My husband can't resist, especially if it's one of those places where they sing songs while they stir the fudge. Glad you're having fun!

T-minus one week til Snuggie time, by the way.

Love the jellyfish. I wish I was that artistic where I could make something like that, but alas, no. And that's weird about the religious-pottery-hippie-pirates! To think you could have joined their cult and posted about your adventures (and evangelism)! HA!
