On a truck - Parade participants


Three parade participants, riding on a gas-guzzling S.U.V., ah... St. Patrick's Day.

Before the parade...


Kids and a 'motorised puppet' thing; Minneapolis, 3-17-07


I'll show another photo of this puppet-thing actually "in" the parade a bit later. But it was really disturbing. A guy walked about 20 feet behind it, driving it with some sort of radio-controlled device, whist talking on a mobile-phone. The puppet then seemed to pedal itself around, and "talk" at people.

It scared me. It reminded me too much of a clown. (For an explanation of this, check out the latest Motif Radio, show 14 by my marvellous wife, with assistance from me.

Gah.

In front of the "British" pub...

There are still folks enjoying the "wearin' o' the green"

Queue for the Loo

In the continuing saga, of St. Pat's 2007, I submit this:


The queue for the out-door porta-potties at The Local, on St. Patrick's Day, 2007. This is NOT a joke, it actually WAS that long. Hence the rather dodgy composition.

St. Patrick's Day Parade, Minneapolis

Hi folks...

I'm back. Sorta. Anyhoo... I made about 350 photos at the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Downtown Minneapolis, MN. And I thought... heck.... I can get at least 10 good photos out of the group, to share with my occasional viewers.

Hope you enjoy the weirdness that is the Irish-American pride. First off... Irish Dancing, anyone?

Ah... The city.


Film-making in Minneapolis. Or: Dead Guy on the Sidewalk


I really love wandering around Downtown Minneapolis. It's amazing what one will see.
