Growing up in downtown Savannah as a Walsh, March 17th - St Patrirck's Day was probably bigger than Christmas at our house. "The Greatest Day of the Year!!!", my father wou
ld exclaim. Our day was filled with celebration, gratefulness and glee-a grand day for young and old. I have many memories of parades, riding my first pony, marching in my school uniform no matter what the weather, and shaking the hand of a future President, as well as meeting other prominent people of the day. Surreal yes, but Savannah is one of those magical places where anything is possible and you never know who you will sit or stand next to in such a relaxed city.Today, I'd like to share a little of that special time with you. Here are some links that offer free patterns, both knit and crochet to make, as welll as a little history. You don't have to be Irish to celebrate. Enjoy the spirit of the day, the celebration of a new beginning, and the hope of the good life to come.
