Getting a Jump on the Parties

We’ve already been to three St. Patrick’s Day parties. You? Well, if you’ve yet to have your first Irish potato—of the fluffy and buttery or the coconut  cream Philly-style versions—or hear your first diddly-eye tune, come along with us virtually to the parties that got a jump on St. Patrick’s Day.

View of our photos of:

The Irish Immigration Center’s shades of green senior lunch, featuring the music of John Byrne with Cormac Brady and Vincent Gallagher.

Then, let’s head over to the Philopatrian Mansion in Center City for the Brehon Law Society’s after work cocktail soiree.

And then to the Grand Marshal Gala for the Philadelphia St. Patrick’s Day Parade, where everyone wanted to touch Grand Marshal Jim Murray’s Superbowl ring (he was GM of the Eagles when they made it there).

We also dropped by the annual Friendly Sons of St. Patrick wreath-laying and the mayor’s proclamation of March as Irish month, both at City Hall.
