# St. Patty’s day… - Link: https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/ - Published: 2012-03-23T01:15:00-07:00 - Author: My Walkabout This was the first time in my entire life that I ventured out into the world to celebrate all things Irish. I’ve never had any connection to the day before, no lineage that I know of, not a big fan of corned beef and cabbage, and the drunken revelry seemed a bit too much for my liking.   But with new friends and I’ve made over the last few years, I thought I’d give it a go. [[ The parade that the SLC puts on was a good start to the Irish coffee morning, but the real party started with the ‘infamous’ pub crawl through the downtown streets. [the_ad id=”11876″] The poplar pub offered green concoctions and tasty Scotch eggs that hit the spot. I dabbled in a car bomb, which tasted like a chocolate milkshake. After that though, things went haywire. From memories of family members recently lost to others coping with recent unemployment, the party turned into a time of friends being there for each other, holding hands, showing love and support. On second thought, it twas a pretty good day after all. ### Share this: * [ Email ](https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20St.%20Patty%27s%20day...&body=https%3A%2F%2Fmywalkabout.net%2Fst-pattys-day%2F&share=email) * [Post](https://x.com/share) * [Share on Tumblr](https://www.tumblr.com/share) * [ WhatsApp ](https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/?share=jetpack-whatsapp) * [ Nextdoor ](https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/?share=nextdoor) * [ Threads ](https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/?share=threads) * [[ * [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) * [ Reddit ](https://mywalkabout.net/st-pattys-day/?share=reddit) ### Like this: Like Loading…
