Happy St. Patrick’s Day

It’s a day for the wearing of the green but did you know that St. Patrick often wore blue? Other fun facts: corned beef and cabbage originated in the U.S. and the first St. Patrick’s Day parade was held in the U.S., not Ireland. I’m actually about 18% Irish according to a genealogy test but that’s not a surprise since my grandparents were from the province of Galicia in the north of Spain which is one of the Celtic nations. What about you? Any Irish connections? Does your town do a St. Patrick’s Day parade? My town does one and this year was the 51st Annual Parade. I captured video of some of the fire trucks that take part as they took off for the parade!
