As Green As I'll Get

Happy Saint Patrick's Day?

4 Seconds A Day: March 2013

I may have squeezed an extra day in there

Make Me See Green

I'm not Irish, don't really give a hoot about the introduction of Christianity to the Irish people, and I'm not what one would label a "heavy drinker" so St. Patrick's Day is always a holiday I struggle with. If it weren't for the color-coding and the parades, the whole thing would probably pass by me unnoticed.Luckily we had some visitors that thrust us into the outer fray where we were confronted, unprovoked.

Breakfast at Tannersville Inn, where they served our coffees in Irish mugs. We were the only ones there, again.

We found ourselves at a tractor supply store where Fatih decided he would play with the chicks, even tho the sign specifically asked him not to. He has an excuse tho.

Then it was time to hit the only parade held on the actual holiday within 100 miles. Unfortunately it was in Allentown, but we'll take what we can get. Supply stores available everywhere. 

And the people were festive for sure

Yuula had no trouble getting the height to see the parade pass by

Honestly there wasn't a terribly good display

The llamas were pretty neat

Yuula didn't care for the grande finale of large antique tractors

Not bad for a holiday we could care less about.

Sleep Thru Sirens

Nothin

Green On The Sidewalk

Lots of photos from today. I don't think I've ever just gone to a parade as a spectator. I gotta say, it was not too bad. I may have even exhibited the slightest bit of town spirit. Go Stroudsburg. They came out in droves. I was impressed. High spirits. Laura wishes it could be like that all year. I think we'd get spoiled. Photos GO!

the shopfronts were done up with holiday pride

Sweet Creams with sweet girls

Isabella broke a glass

...we are tired

How Far Is Turkey From Ireland?

Main Street is hopping! We got street vendors, cheerleaders, baked goods, green beer, vuvuzelas, bagpipers, and I've never seen so many people hitting the pavement. All for St. Patricks day parade, a holiday I am not all that familiar with but I am wearing green shoes. We're meeting Dunja, Jordan & Isabella for lunch at the Istanbul Grill. A smart move since Mollie's and Siamsa and Maggie O'toole's are already full of drunken buffoonery.
