Go on then Kansas City, enjoy yourself on St Patrick’s Day 2011
The main Irish related events in Kansas City this St Patrick’s Day are listed on the Irish events page, and many are also over there on the far sidebar. I’ve been adding more links through the night.
There’s also more St Patrick’s related stuff from today going back several years, in the St Patrick’s Day posts category.
Enjoy yourself, be careful, and maybe take a moment to think about emigration by those who would rather not. It takes mass emigration to create such a holiday, and sadly Ireland is currently investing heavily again in this holiday.
In about 1 hour IrishKC will pass one million views. Thank you all, or nearly all, for your visits these 5 years. On with ya now, enjoy yourself. I’ve pictures of Ireland to paint.
NOTE: Dear America, if you care, and you may not, in Ireland it’s Patrick or Paddy, never Patty or Pat.
