Pirate Red Beard

Do you ever feel like you live with a bunch of pirates? No? Well, if you are ever feeling pirate-deprived, just come on over to our house. There are three of the scalawags hanging around here and they have lots of fun adventures together! This pirate just showed up at our door the other day. We're not sure where he came from or what his name is, but we decided to call him Pirate Red Beard. Clearly he does not have a beard, but Will decided that Pirate No Beard is a silly name. Pirate Red Beard lost his treasure and needed a couple of little pirates to help him find it. Pirate Henry was up for the challenge.
So was Pirate Will. ARGH!
Pirate Red Beard is not a very bright pirate. He is always misplacing his treasure. Fortunately, the little pirates have been able to help him find his map.
But he still needs lots of help counting the paces. Pirate Red Beard gets the numbers all mixed up and then he goes the wrong direction.
Here the little pirates are listening to Pirate Red Beard's instructions about where the treasure is hidden so they can help him find it.
There is an awful lot of laughter at our house when Pirate Red Beard stops by, but fortunately, he always recovers his treasure, even though I'm sure he'll misplace it again soon. Will and Henry are already asking when "that pirate" is going to visit again!
