I recall being very proud of the research that went into the rigging and crow’s nest on this page. I was young and impatient back then, but I learned a lesson about the pride that comes from getting some nice reference material in order.
Here’s page 3 of Weirdbeard. Hope you’re enjoying these things. And yes, I know that Boma, Zaire wasn’t around in what was thought of as ‘Pirate Days’, but YOU try finding a city that starts with a B in a country that starts with a Z. Tricky. You bend the rules of time and space just to finish the poem.
So, having thrown everyone a curve ball with that last photo, here’s another one that Won seems so good at finding:
You guys play nice. Won, give everyone a few minutes head start. Who can work out where or what this is?
Here’s page 2 of old WeirdBeard. Again, I’m not a poet. Also, this is when I was really working to learn how I wanted to use a brush properly. Feel free to study it a bit and say, “Wow. Those lines in the wood need to be much, much skinnier.”
Back to the impossible (and small) photo guessing game. Again- sorry for the inconvenience of the tiny photos, but there are some irregularities with the settings on the phone/camera in question.
So. New photo and hints…I don’t know if this’ll help, but here’s Ken Venable and his family. Those of you who’ve perused the funny stories we occasionally supply you will remember Ken as the nice fellow who went nose-to-nose with a skunk who wanted our Spap-Oop.
I don’t know if any of the cleverer detectives among us can glean any new info from this shot, but at least Ken and his progeny are kind enough to point out the Hubris sticker. That one may actually still be there!
As for guessing where this is- we will entertain suppositions about 1) What city it’s in or near. 2) What sort of food they serve
You guys are sharp, I bet we can guess those two things pretty quick.
Go for it.
