Chi-town St. Patty’s day weekend
Boy was it a weekend to remember. Good people, good booze, good hospitality, and bad farts. Hung out downtown on the magnificent mile, stayed in the Inn of Chicago and got to see the river turn green! Of course there were plenty of drunken non-irish kids playing around the whole day Friday and Saturday downtown, especially after the parade cleared up, the bars ran out of green dye, and the women had all the green beads that they could possibly carry around their necks. I did manage to get a collage of random pictures from the weekend (here). I hope you enjoy!

I almost jumped into that fucking river, had it not been for the river patrol.

Uhhmmmm…it wasn’t really polluted, but the unmentionable person that I attended Chi with thought it was. I thought, perhaps (& I know this is a stretch, but – ) it had been dyed for the Holiday, only to be laughed at & told I was wrong. I still say it was dyed.

No,they really dye it. But on the average day, especially after a storm you can’t tell the difference.
