St. Patrick's Day ParadeWhat a splendid way to spend a sunny warm day (50 degrees) in Rochester; the St. Patrick's Day parade. Friends of ours secure a spot along the parade route early in the morning; which works great for us, we just show up. They had a grill going for hot dogs topped with pulled pork and an assortment of appetizers, snack food, desserts and drinks.
Ambrose had just one request, a purple lolly pop (he remembered getting one last year); luckily we managed to catch one from a float. And a bonus he got a bobble head hockey guy!
The parade was almost 2 1/2 hours long - WOW! We enjoyed numerous sites (just check out Damian's sunglasses) - floats, dancers, musicians and people watching is always good.
This St. Patty's Day we toast you and yours:
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be ever at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall softly on your fields
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand
-Traditional Irish Blessing
