We have beer and Guiness Stew and after we will gather with old friends and sing a few teary songs, as we do every year. Do you do anything special for the day ? What are your St Paddy's tradition ? Hope you all have a joyous and lovely day! |

Spring has sprung and is kindly decorating the scene with shamrocks and daffodils and pear tree blooms, isn't that nice of it? |

17 Mar 15 - 02:13 PM (#3694855) Subject: RE: BS: nalternate St. Patricks day From: CupOfTea it ain't grand, newp. Having a very peculiar St. Patrick's day, as I work in an office that is directly behind the reviewing stand with announcer/judges for the Cleveland St. Patrick's parade. The groups marching in this year's event are numerous and ... odd.... "Divine Mercy" followed by Ronald McDonald. The Pipe fitters union, and the Burning River Roller Derby, Buffalo Soldiers and the Cleveland Asian Festival... all announced at earsplitting volume. We can't even see the parade this year because of the stand being between our windows and the street. By the by, where I work is rectory of the Catholic Cathedral. If I hadn't needed to be somewhere else, I'd have tried out the "Sober St. Patrick's Day" party out in Avon - they've got one of the best uileen (my spell check doesn't do Irish) pipers in town playing there. Somewhere else tonight will be going to be with a friend in hospice. There will be a session going on there for sure - had to give 'im a bigger room for all the musicians who were coming to play there. so I don't want to have a sniffle or even a bloody good cry, cause I want those I love to live forever and a day, and especially THIS day. Irish-American love from Cleveland Joanne |

It's held in Clifton Forge, VA, and the parade route is 88 feet long - it goes from The Irish Inn, across Ridgeway street, and ends up at Jack Mason's Tavern, where pints of Guinness await the marchers. Great fun! Padre |
