Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I wanted to reach out and say “Cheers” thee ol Irish way today. There are lots of Irish blessings being passed around. I hope you catch yours! I am hoping you too can get your Irish Up!
One of the great things I enjoy about the great Emerald Isle is the music there. Certainly there are many versions of Irish music.
On our trip to Ireland we visited a town, Doolin, in County Clare, that had the reputation of the best traditional Irish music around. It was a small town with 3 Irish pubs. Every night Irish musicians of all ages came into jam; nothing practiced, just ‘pick up sessions’. It was great.
So in attempts to help get your Irish up I wanted offer a few quick appetizers of some Irish jams and wishes for an Irish day filled with smiles, fun & some Irish gold.
Welcome to Gus O’ Connor’s Pub in Doolin, County Clare…
Or we can catch a jam session at my favorite, McDermott’s Pub, known as the best pub in Ireland…
But beware….
they have some medieval methods of dealing with you if you get served too much!
And across the bay from Doolin was a trip back to Celtic Ireland at the Aran Islands, where they still speak the ancient Celtic language and draw shamrocks in the foam of your draft pint.
So get your Irish up today! Dance a jig!
And have a very happy St. Patrick’s day!
Rainbows and a pot of gold
