The Green River


Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Here I am at the Chicago River on the day they dyed it green!
The shirt I'm wearing is a Corbett's Bar shirt, graciously supplied by my oldest brother Bob and his wife Gail. The sash is from the Bernard J. "Bun" Brady Division of the Ancient Order of Hibernians (Traverse City, MI).

On Parade Day in Chicago I watched as nearly 100 floats and entries passed by the viewing stand. (A bit bigger than our annual affair in T.C.)

Afterward I was privledged to attend a Sligo County party on the 3rd floor of the Hilton and visit briefly with my old high school buddy Jim Scheer and his with Kathy, and listen to his son Kevin play Irish tunes on the fiddle and his daughter, Kara, sing a beautiful Irish melody.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from Traverse City, Michigan!!
