Pog mo Thoin!
Pre-Parade pics for my MV peeps!
Where me gold at???
Bring me the gold or I'll bring the pain...!
Don't delete, I'll upload pics of the actual parade in this journal. Maybe yours can be a St. Paddys Day GIS game.
Cool Pics. Thank ye, lassie.
Oh yeah, no comments from the peanut gallery about composition and so on.
I took these at 7am in dim lighting.
Sun is shining like crazy at the moment.
Should be a perfect picture taking day. 
Woo Hoo! Take some more good ones Zemmy!
Happy St Patty's Madville!
Holy CARP.
I called it. Friggin Tuesday parades are always more wild.
I'll upload some more pics in a minute.
That's insane. Nice pic's Zem. Try muscling your way in a little deeper at break though. 
That second one, is that Mr. Patty himself?
I'm gonna try!
And yes! It is! So funny, little to grabby with the ladies walking by though. 
3rd and 4th down are bagpipers and drummers, but the crowd was too big. 
"but the crowd was too big." - uh huh, that's it shorty. 
The first ones a pretty good shot of the band. Bagpipers always send a chill through me.
Hey! 
When they were walking by the crowd went totally nuts.
I can hear them chanting, THAT'S how loud this parade is.
Last one for now, I think my batteries are kaput!
NYPD Marching Band
Lovely. Not to complain or anything, but I coulda stood seeing some more of the kilt-clad guys.
(I love a man in a skirt!)
Ahh, you speak of the FDNY bagpipers, mmmmmmm. 
Ahem, sorry.
No pics of them yet. 
You're doing a fine job. 
And through me jealousy, I so appreciates it.
Would you settle for tube socks and a smile?
Works for me. Thanks.
You rock Zem! Wish I was there!
Just had me some corned beef & cabbage lunch and washed it down with a delicious Guiness! YUM!
Oh man, that sounds delish. I'm jealous.
(but not of the black liquid tar)
I'm seriously surprised at just how loud this years parade is.
Tis cool though, it's got everyone pumped.
"but not of the black liquid tar"
Blasphemy! Wash your mouth out with Irish Spring!
lolol
Guinness lovers are the easiest to rile
Sad for me. I have to wait until Saturday to celebrate. But we have a corned beef brisket in the fridge 5 lbs of potatoes and 2 heads of cabbage waiting to be eaten. We are also inviting over a real live irishman.
Careful there, they are sneaky lil bastids!
I plan on keeping an eye on ole red beard......

Happy Paddy's!
Goin' to delete mine. Glad you did 'member the camera though.
