Happy St. Patric(ia)'s Day?

This nice lady was in our St Pattys Day Parade on Sunday.

Boulder is home to the "World's Shortest St Patty's Day Parade" - it goes for one block! Don't blink, or you'll miss it!

Mural of Pearl Street Mall

This mural which is on a building on Pearl Street Mall depicts our wonderful outdoor mall. It runs for several blocks, with amazing view of the Flatirons, and has the most stunning array of tulips each spring.

We love to wander up and down the mall.

Every Halloween, the shops have candy for all the trick or treaters in town and in the spring and summer, local bands set up and play free concerts for passersby.

Sculpture on Pearl Street Mall

This pic is a couple of days old. We just got a winter storm in yesterday, so everything is covered in snow now. I like the casual pose this piece has. Makes me wish it were summer and a warm breeze was drifting by as I swing on a porch overlooking a long grassy field. (phew)

Instead its 9 degrees and snowing and I've got my wool socks and boots on!

A cozy little French restaurant on Pearl Street.

I have not eaten there as it's quite pricey, but it looks like a proper place...The chef studied with Roger Verger.

Perhaps, one day I shall see if they have good Escarot...
