Happy belated St. Patrick’s Day and Happy Birthday to Me

Half a million people, green beer, green river, shamrocks, beads and a parade equals one heck of a party.  I drove 600 miles roundtrip Tuesday to be at the Savannah, G.A. Saint Patrick’s Day Parade.  It’s the biggest parade south of Chicago, IL.  It was well worth the trip.

I’ll be back tomorrow evening to upload photos and do a proper post.  I’m exhausted!

Return to Green 2009

Many apologies for the lack of post this week.  My family had a bit of a crisis.  Everyone still has their fingers and toes so no worries.  Saturday will be a grand and somewhat green start to a brilliant weekend.

I’ll be at Return to Green distilling a days worth of events into fifty to a hundred memorable photos.  We are supposed to be blessed with a blue sky, bibulous smiles, and a green river.

This wee festival is my hometowns early celebration of Saint Patrick’s Day.

I’ll update the post with a proper description and pictures Saturday evening.

UPDATE:  I made a bit of a mess of things with the dates.  The festival is tomorrow, Sunday, the 8th day of the third month of 2009.  Ooopppssss.   :)
