Happy Saint Patrick's Day!


May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow, 
and may trouble avoid you wherever you go.

 About 50 people attended the St. Patrick's Day dinner 
we had at the park. I am on the activities team for the month
 of March so I helped decorate, set up, prepare and serve. 
The traditional meal was corned beef with cabbage, carrots,
 potatoes, Irish soda bread and dessert.
Sally & George are a sweet couple from Minnesota 
who dressed to the max for the party. 
They attend the Bible study group on Wednesday and
 Sally goes to water aerobics Monday - Friday.
This is a friendly community and we have already met 
over 50 people in just a few months.

In life you gain and lose friends. 
When I returned home after the dinner,
 I found out that a friend from high school just pass away. 
Live each day to the fullest. Where will you spend eternity? 
 Scott & I decided to check out the Tohono O'odham 
Swap Meet on Saturday morning.
We walked around for two hours and picked up a few things.
 Of course we had to have a carne asada taco 
 and they were pretty good. 

Irish Blessing
May luck be our companion
May friends stand by our side
May history remind us all
Of Ireland's faith and pride.
May God bless us with happiness
May love and faith abide.
