An old Irish Hymn we use every St.Patrick.s day goes like this. It's sung to the tune of Londonderry Air. Better known as Danny Boy I cannot tell why he whom Angel's worship. Should set his love upon the sons of men. Or why as Shepherd He should seek the wanderer. To bring them back, they not not how nor when. But this I know that he was born of Mary When Bethlehem's manger was his only home. And that He lived in Nazareth and Laboured. And so the Saviour, Saviour of the world is come. Happy St. Patrick's Day.

I forgot that is always held on Sunday.I <br />guess alot of people still book off work on Monday.<br />The last year I lived in the Laurientians in Quebec <br />a friend of mine who also knew people from Verdun asked me if I wanted to go to <br />the parade . Off we went I made it home 3 days later with mustard all down <br />the front of my shirt from a corned beef and cabbage meal we had at someone's <br />house in Verdun. What a time we had.The day after the parade we kept dropping in <br />on all our old Verdun friend's.( Most of them Irish) I had better <br />stop I'm getting home sick again !levisjeans7 MSNhttp://msn-levisjeans7.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464100720604662734.post-46144475086646435092007-03-17T11:35:00.000-07:002007-03-17T11:35:00.000-07:00Geez Levis I have been to about twenty parades and...Geez Levis I have been to about twenty parades and never once did I find someone who owed me money, or gave me money. It must be called the luck of the Irish, or maybe that is the true meaning of the pot of gold. <br><br>The parades were fun. We would all be standing there freezing but would have the energy to shout when someone passed by that we knew. I loved the Shriners in those little cars or was that Karnak temple. I remember the "plop cleaner" walking along behind the horses. My daughter got a kick out of that - smutty little thing !!! Of course the Pipes and drums, and Irish dancers, radio and TV celebs. Great time !

Going to the parade <br />and seeing all the people from Verdun that you didn't see all winter, <br />even some phamtom's from the past.<br />I would be all the Verdun people at the corner of <br />Guy. You could go with no money in your pocket and run into some one who owed <br />you money from long ago in the past or the other way around go with money and <br />pay back the people you owed. <br />never the less it was loads of fun. I assume the <br />parade is held today So people will be able to nurce their hangovers tomorrow <br />before going back to work!!!!levisjeans7 MSNhttp://msn-levisjeans7.multiply.comnoreply@blogger.com
