Old, Green and Uninhibited

One of the things I've learned in my many visits to Naples Florida is that old, retired people are so comfortable in their own skin that they are uninhibited, unashamed and a total BLAST to be around.

Speedos are all the rage.
Bikinis on a 80 year old?  Go for it!
Dancing on the street just because it's Thursday - all the hip "kids" are doing it!

And who cares if you're Irish or not ... when there's a parade you go ALL out!

In honour of all my new friends in Naples ...
Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!


This lady should have been Queen of the parade!




Honest to goodness, the guy on the left grabbed me and kissed my cheek! 

Saint Patrick himself ... I think?!?


Christ be with me,
be after me, be before me,
and be at my right and left hand.
May everything I do be for Christ.
~ Saint Patrick
