From the earliest days of sail, men needed liquid during voyages. The most readily available liquids were water and beer. As there was no method of distillation or preservation, water was taken on board and stored in casks, replaced at the end of the voyage or at ports of call. Beer was also stored in casks and the ration. Water quickly developed algae and turned slimy, and beer turned sour, so the custom was to drink the beer before it soured and then turn to water.

I'm making plans to start shopping for a RV to use this upcoming festival season starting in April. I do love my warm shower and hot coffee in the mornings.
Thinking class B or C, about 20-24 foot long. I'll wallpaper it with simulated wooden panels to make it look like a pirate ship.
This weekend is the PDX Metro RV show at the Expo. portlandmetrorv.com/ This will help me understand the market for RVs
Ah, the life of a gypsy is calling.

about me
I live with my First Mate Jen and four cats in an apartment in SE PDX.

MySpace profile www.myspace.com/lordstrega

I'm a festival and convention merchant( www dot dancingmuse dot com ) selling creative historical fantasy wear, boots, hosiery and accessories with my first mate Jen. Have a dark twisted sense humor with photos to prove it. I'm a Pagan Libertarian meat eater, a Scorpio on the cusp of Sagittarius, and a Metal Rat in the Chinese calendar. I dress up like a pirate on those weekends that I'm vending conventions and festivals. Love to camp at outdoor events. Bonfires, drums, belly dancers and drinking with old friends & new acquaintances alike are some of the things I enjoy or do with my time.

"Yes I am a pirate, 300 years too late, The cannons don't thunder, there's nothing to plunder, I'm an anachronistic victim of fate..."
