I was asked to be the photographer for the St. Patrick’s day parade. I said I would only if they would provide a float for Bikes. It was a fair trade. Now all I need is some bikes adorned with decorations and and riders in green. Hopefully, that will include you. We will go for beverages afterwards. Bring the family. Wear Green. Be Seen.
