March 17th: St. Patrick’s Day. This Irish holiday has been celebrated in the USA since 1737. Traditional icons that mark the holiday: Leprechauns, Pots of Gold, Rainbows, Shamrocks and the Color Green! There will be local parades in many of our towns…Boston,(!!!) Stamford, Danbury and of course in NYC. It might be fun to go and experience this tradition.
