The Pirates of Spring Street

Prepare to be plundered!

It appears pirates have boarded Sylva's Spring Street, somehow navigating the now-shallow waters of Scotts Creek. This Jolly Roger was spotted flying from the mast of a large stationary brick ship across from City Lights Bookstore.

Presumably these pirates are not the Pirates of the Tuckaseigee, a musical group co-founded by Sylva attorney Jay Coward over 15 years ago.

But could it be more than a coincidence that Jay's law firm is expanding its downtown Sylva offices only two blocks away?

The Jackson County Magazine will keep a close eye on the situation.
