St. Patty's Day Parade

Louisville has a large Irish population and they put on a 2 hour parade the Saturday before St. Patrick's Day. They were not exaggerating about the length of time! It was probably one of the funniest most random parades I have ever been too. Jack loved all of the green, music, candy, beads, and dogs in the parade. When we first got there it was super crowded, but as the parade went on the crowd thinned out because people just jumped on a float and joined in the parade! Neither Mike or I have any Irish in us, but I have always found the culture fascinating and I love the music. Ben went to Ireland his senior year of college and his pictures are amazing, a trip there is on my bucket list. A must if Jack continues with his love for golf! It was a fun way to spend to a gorgeous Saturday afternoon.
