A Little Luck 'O The Irish

One of my very favorite events of the year is the St. Patty's Day parade at the Gateway. You haven't been to a parade until you go to this one. It's kind of like a super-tame Mardi Gras. A variety of people like you've never seen. Here's part of my attire for the occasion:
Notice the amazing, green eye shadow? Yeah...I also had Kelly Green Converse All-Stars to go along with the ensemble. It seems like I keep collecting more and more green just for this little parade.

This is one of the very unique entries. Yes, it is a coffin. Wait for it, this just gets better....


Oh yeah, that's right. A nice ride for the dearly departed, complete with green flower arrangement on top. Um...beware the Ides of March?
It was pouring the entire time, but we found a nice place under a bridge to keep nice and toasty with a fleece blanket specially made for the parade. Yup, you guessed it. A green blanket. :)
