March Has Disappeared

April is nearly half-gone.  The ancient Latins knew too well that "tempus fugit", so I shouldn't be surprised. 

The St. Patrick's Day parade was as I remembered parades to be.  There were the crowds, the patriotic flag-bearers, the clowns and the bands.  Clare throws a party every year on St. Patrick's (a 4-day event).  As one obsessed with Ireland and its people I'm happy to be reminded of the man himself, who would probably tell everyone today to 'tone it down'.  After all he saw his mission as all about God and Christ.  Check out his 'Confession'. I think you'll see what I mean.
Here are some pics of parade day.  BTW, Lauryn, got a medal in the 5k race for fastest in her age group. She deserved it!
