LUGBJTFBG YES.

International Talk Like A Pirate Day just "yarr... c:" while Arbor Day is c: and they are.

Arbor Day chopping down the older trees by hand with an axe to plant new ones in, and International Talk Like A Pirate Day (ITLAP Day?) Just letting out a Yar in the tone of a dreamily said 'wow...'

And I saw this on Hoodie's, but Val helping in matchmaking if International Talk Like A Pirate Day asked because Arbor Day is a bit. Not completely oblivious just needing a push in the right direction.

No okay but Arbor Days gifts to International Talk Like A Pirate Day would be like. Small little flowers that do well with a lot of water. Letting ITLAP Day wear her leather jacket. Making small wooden boat carvings.

Pirate holds each and every one of these dear constantly.

Also. Pirate giving Arbor Day gold coins and making her maps that lead to treasure (places that have a good spot for planting)

The Female Pirates

There is a fascination with Lady Swashbucklers.  They did exist but they were few and far between compared to the men who plied the trade. Some were quite powerful while others would have gone unnoticed in the history of piracy had they been men. With that said, it is a bad historian who fails to recognize the role these women played.

An excellent book on women and piracy is She Captains: Heroines and Hellions of the Sea by Joan Druett. With that said, below is a list of some of the more notorious (and possibly fictitious) women who plied the trade.

Queen Teuta – – 232 BC to 228 BC, Adriatic Sea.
