Today is St. Patrick's Day. I have always loved St. Patrick's day. Sometimes I would wear green to sleep the night before so that I could wake up ready to pinch anyone in my family who had forgotten to look at the calendar.
Tonight, we will probably go downtown to the first Friday even in Joplin. There are bound to be tons of people and things going on, and I'm excited to run into people I haven't seen in a while. In 2010, we went to visit my brother in Lake Havasu, Arizona. We flew into Las Vegas with some friends, and decided to make a vacation of it! We stayed a few days at Planet Hollywood on the strip. Our last night there, we had dinner in Paris, the Eiffel Tower Resturant. We were supposed to be celebrating St. Patrick's day, and we did so in the strangest way---by eating French food in Las Vegas. But then we went down to Freemont Street. It was my favorite thing in Las Vegas. Neon lights and colorful signs were everywhere---just like I pictured Las Vegas. My brother met us on Freemont, and we had a fun night watching a midget U2 cover band dressed like leprechauns.
