St. Patrick's Day - 2010

We were promised warm, sunny weather from the local news stations. All of Kansas City woke up expecting a beautiful St. Patrick's Day and even though we looked outside and saw drizzle, we held to the belief that by mid-morning it would become a tad more clement. It never did. We froze our collective arses off.

Here's some action from the parade. Thanks to all those that came out to march and to watch from the sidelines. And a special thanks to Lynn Klein for bringing her truck to carry the Irish flag for the KCGAC, which she did in memorial for her mother Jane Klein. We miss you Jane.
Green (as in the environment) was the theme this year
The things parents will make their kids wear: Wellies, Kilt, Paddy Cap. Check, check and check
This guy looks like an extra from Patriot Games.
Hurling and ATV riding = Multiple Dental Visits 
Irish Potato Famine Victims

See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil
The Taylor Lads and their Dad braved the cold
Robert was Protected from the Elements
This wee Galway man came out to show the KCGAC hurlers how to play the old Celtic Cricket

Another great and safe St. Paddy's Day under our belt, hope to see you all again next year, when it will be bigger, better, faster and greener than ever.
