Last Saturday was my first time experiencing the St. Patrick's Day parade in the Quad Cities. I was on the Rock Island side of the parade and had a great time! 

I had no idea that St. Paddy's Day was such a big deal in the QC, but now I know why. The celebrations started very early in the morning and went all the way through the night and I met some very--festive--people.

Here's hoping next year's parade is even better!
