It was another blustery day here in the Pacific Northwest. Despite the inclement weather, there was much to see and do. Particularly with today being... PIRATE SUNDAY.

^{Instead of gazing at the neighbor’s house, today we shall take in the autumn leave situation in my yard.}

First things first, we left the house and set out for “town”. The city center of my little community is about a five minute drive down hill from the house. Views going into town are always nicest on sunny days. However, the fall colors added a bit of zip to today’s gray views.

^{Looking down at the Puget Sound and Kitsap Peninsula.}

When the weather is gloomy comfort food is a definite pick me up. So this morning’s destination was a popular local eatery. Here we enjoyed a classic hot breakfast they warmed us up from the inside out.

^{Bacon, sausage, potatoes, scrambled eggs, a biscuit and hot coffee. Mmmmmm 🤤}

After brunch it was time for a walk down Main Street. We counted on our full bellies to keep us warm. Maybe not the best idea with all the rain.

^{Of course there is a Starbucks. Here that’s a local coffee spot. 😉}

Now I mentioned earlier that today is Pirate Sunday. There are two things you need for a true Pirate Sunday. The first of course is pirates. 🏴‍☠️ My town delivers on pirate.

Let me show you some photos from a local spot called Treasures and Teas. It is a shop that specializes in tea, nautical themed gifts and pirate paraphernalia. Who knew pirates were big tea drinkers. 🤔 🤣😂

^{So much pirate goodness.}

^{If the shop were open I could have shared so many more pirate goodies.}

The second thing you need for a proper Pirate Sunday - booty. This Sunday I didn’t even have to plunder for my booty. It got delivered right to the front door!

IT’S A PACKAGE FROM @vgholdingsllc!!! 😍

Well let’s see the booty! 🍑 👀

^{Whoopee cushions!}

^{We ALL know VG has a “special” connection with other worldly visitors.}

REMEMBER...

^{Wiener Dog tchotchkes!!! As I am a BIG lover of dachshunds, this was perfect.}

The next bit of booty was part of a trade. Check out this America the Beautiful art bar!

^{The State Fair}

The State Fair bar is 1oz of .999 pure silver. It was minted in 1975 for the Hamilton Mint’s 50 bar America the Beautiful series. This particular bar is #6607/10,000.

The inscription on the bar’s reverse reads:

To Americans, young and old, the rural, homespun flavor of the state fair revived a torrent of pleasant memories.

🤤

There was one more item in the box.

This next item is the ULTIMATE plunder from the weekend. It is unique, and hella sweet!

It’s the VG BUTTON!!!

^{VG SILVER!!!}

Look at this little beauty!!! It was hand poured by steem silver gold’s very own @vgholdingsllc! The diameter is slightly smaller than a quarter and it is .999 pure. The absolute BEST part - it has an AWESOME little VG head stamped into the back! SO COOL!

Thank you so much for this VG. I LOVE it! 😍💕💞

OK folks it is late. So late that it is barely still Sunday! Hope you have all had a great weekend friends! 💜

Special thanks to @stokjockey for creating #piratesunday. 🤗
