Chicago Celebrates St Patrick's Day

Scenes from this morning's 'greening' of the Chicago River. Besides the green river, we were surrounded by green hair, green hats, green clothing. Lots of smiles.

I think they must celebrate more than the Irish!

[Taffy]

@busylady There is a huge Irish influence here -- from politics to commerce to culture.

Gorgeous collage. I had planned an outing to see the parade in Houston, but it rained big time, so I suspect it was cancelled.

Its been a long time since I faved a collage, but this one just makes me grin. The color is wonderful.

Great collage of St. Patrick's in Chicago! I love it! I got downtown too late for most of the green craziness, but you did a fantastic job of capturing the green river!

[Molly]

Great representation of St Patrick's day. I was astonished when I was there on 17th March, having never seen anything like it ever before!

[Penny Price]

Sooo green - makes a great collage.

[Taffy]

@jb2014memorylog It was so interesting to see all the people in costume -- almost as much fun as the river. Next year, I hope to catch the parade as well.
