Dear Friends,
It is St. Patrick’s Day! My dad used to love celebrating. We would go to see a parade and enjoy the festivities at the House of Ireland at Balboa Park. He missed Ireland, even though he stated that he could never live in that weather again.
His birthday is actually the day after St. Patrick’s. So that added to the celebrations.
I am proud to be Irish. It is a special place. It endured so much under brutal colonization by the British, and yet its language and culture are thriving. It is a place I hope to live one day.
I am grateful to be connected to spellers over there. Their community is growing. It is exciting to see!
So this is just a quick post to recognize a special day. Eirinn go Brach!
Your Friend,
Danny
