Temple Connor at Clanmacnoise in Ireland
Top'o the mornin to ye. Since I have Irish roots St. Pat's Day has always been special to me. Baltimore was full of taverns with 17 cent green beer and Irish music and parades. How I miss that. I went to a luncheon yesterday and wore my green St. Patrick's Day t-shirt with about 20 green strings of beads from New Orleans. Had to stop at the post office on the way. I think the postmaster recognized an alien. I was lucky enough to visit Ireland in celebration of my 60th birthday. It was wonderful and I recalled the words in the Judy Collins song "Drink a round to Ireland son, I'm home again". Visiting there felt just like going home. Did I mention the beer was wonderful!
