Plantersville, TX     October 23 - 24, 1999

We decided to go down to TRF and have a bit of fun with the locals. We never failed to take in some good shows and walk the lanes bellowing out our tunes under the tree canopy. Somehow we managed to buy too much stuff and have to haul it back to home port.

Elgin, Maroon, and Kailyn sing a little "Congo River" while Natty keeps an eye out for the villagers with torches and pitchforks who should be rioting soon.

Looks like Elgin's dinghy is about to spring a few leaks.

Squint and Squeegy tried to desert us and board another ship! Unfortunately, this ship only went back and forth for a while so we were able to catch them and make them clean the rigging with a toothbrush.




On the way to TRF, we found a small dinghy run aground and could not resist the photo op. Could you?


Elgin, Natty Nell, Kaelin, Squint, and Squeegy spot a McDonald's ahoy!



Squeegy, Nell, Maroon, and Squint strike their most relaxing positions.



Kaelin suffers from an intense bout of land sickness. Either that or it's the burrito from the convenience store.



The rest of the crew strips Maroon of his pistols and puts them to their best use.



It's a good thing this ship was run aground or it would pitch forward with that much weight.



Squeegy and Nell find out what life is like below decks. Watch out for the rats!



Oh yes. That vaunted Bilge Pump ability to strike a macho pose.



Squeegy now knows why we call this ship a dinghy!



Maroon tries to check his god status and gets crucified for his sins.



After a tour on two ships run aground, the Bilge Pumps decide to try one with a bit more future. (Get it? Future? Aw, never mind.) We're going to be Ice Pirates!
