55th Annual St. Patrick Parade Brings Out Thousands
March 22, 2009
By: Stephen Kent
MyBayCity.com has been reporting the St. Patrick parade for years. Each time we do this people ask for more pictures. So bear with a long download, we're going to post a bunch of our favorites from this year. Lots of faces too. Maybe yours!
As we think you'll see in these pictures, people had a great time. It helped that the sun was out again this year, even though the temperature struggled into just the high 30's. And a strong north wind made it a bit chilly. By hey, this is Michigan and we call this a GREAT DAY!
Thanks to MyBayCity contributor Andy Rogers for sending some of his great shots.
Just for the fun of it, you might want to check out these St. Pat's stories from previous years. It's interesting just to see how digital cameras have evolved since 2002:

For another take on the subject of parades, check out what was going on in 1978 in this
