Last night we had our last meeting before our summer hiatus...
The book of the month was The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle-
It was hosted expertly by Jan Fisher who missed not a single detail of the the Pirate theme, from costumes to Pirate Booty.
Life imitating art? Just like the ferocious storm in the book, the wind kicked up just as we started and the electricity went out for most of the meeting. Coincidence? I think not.
Warning, you might find that the following pictures are not for the squeamish...some are truly frightening images...
 |
| The ferocious Courtney, Trilby, and Jan... |
 |
| Meredith and Ashley who played, among other things, a mean pirate inspired violin/harp duet... |
 |
| The truly terrifying Heather, Cheryl and Barbara... |
 |
| Nothing scary about these women-Carol, Donna, and Shannon (except for maybe Shannon's right hook...) |
And the scariest of them all? Me with the red-eye look... Why am I the only one in character? And why am I taking out Denise's chin? And why does Andrea look like she's not the least bit frightened? Hmm...
Well that's it- summer break is upon us and we will reconvene in the fall with a truly frightening book:
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother....
Happy Summer!
