Saturday, March 13, 2010:  The annual St. Patrick's Day Parade in Crosslake, MN, draws several thousand to celebrate the day.  There were cloudy skies and moderate conditions with temperatures in the 40s.

That included these young ladies...dressed for the occasion.

Even dogs were sporting green.  

The parade started with a military color guard from the local American Legion post.

Police were horse mounted for the event.  

The parade had many commercial floats and lots of people. 

Even a few gorillas got into the act.   

St. Patrick's Day is for young and old alike.   

Quote of the day:  The Crosslake St. Patrick's Day Parade is a wonderful thing.  Mark
