Lawrence Parade: Reactions, Photos, Winners
As with the rest of the St Patrick’s Parades in the Kansas City region, Lawrence, Kansas enjoyed great weather for its annual Irish parade down Mass. and the begreened watchers enjoyed the unseasonably warm weather.
I’m tickled by the visitor from Gardner who opted for Lawrence instead of the drive up I-35 for the big Kansas City parade, saying “It’s beautiful out. I enjoy the parade — it’s much better than downtown Kansas City … (which) is getting too busy and too crazy” (Psst - Westport)
There’s also some great photos by Richard Gwin.
