Even though the weather was cold and overcast, it couldn't put a damper on the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Baltimore on Sunday afternoon. I managed to shoot quite a few cool "SWISH" pictures among the participants and observers, such as...

A good time was had by all...before Mother Nature dropped (yet another) eight inches of snow on the city.

A sunny but cold and windy day for Portland's St. Patrick's Day parade which was held on Sunday. I marched with the Maine Police Emerald Society as part of the Honor Guard.

Your's truly 3rd from the left carrying the Maine State flag. Our kilts are in the "Irish National" tartan.

I took a quick mirror pic on my way out to a friend's St. Pat's dinner. The kilt is a Stillwater wool shadow-tartan.

Must have been the day for the T-necks. Sure felt good here in St. Paul with the sky spitting sleet and snow.

He said he'd feel a bit weird but that it would be okay on special occasions, and suggested St. Paddy's. It's a foot in the door - I can show up kilted on St. Andrew's day and at the Christmas party. Get them acclimated, and gradually just start wearing it regularly.

Everyone at the office was positive. I got to talk about the history of the kilt and about St. Patrick's likely Scottish origins.

That's a good looking turtleneck. I like the look of the ribbing on the body of the sweater. Where did you pick it up?

Amazon shows this one, lamb's wool for $32 (good deal, end of season) and it has good reviews.
