Sunday Park/Church Hill Irish Festival (March 23, 2013)




Good day in the RVA, day four of Spring though not as warm as expected, but bundled up and went for a ride on the Motorcycle early in the day. I took a ride down Hull Street visiting a couple of motorcycle dealerships (just to look, not in a buying mood, happy with my Vulcan) but did stop at Sunday Park and took this shot at The Boathouse Restaurant. Two of those in Richmond, the one here, and another at Rocketts Landing. I have eaten at this one, some very good food. The ride though short was a lot of fun, and glad I got this in. Considering we have a 100% rain chance tomorrow....I am very glad!
 This was very cool...went to the Church Hill Irish Festival; and as you can see nothing like enjoying some beer and music with a vast gathering of my close and personal friends. At any case, it was a fun crowd and had a great time there. I have learned this in the four years I have been here...Richmond really knows how to throw a party. I had a great time, went with Tony, a friend from work and we wandered about the crowd (such as we were able to) and enjoyed the day. Church Hill is one of the most interesting sections of Richmond, there is an awful lot to see and do there, and we often do it.
Finally got a photo of one of the band stages, and they also had an Irish band playing (in addition to some rock bands). We got some dinner, and went to his place to watch the Louisville game (which they won, now going to the "Sweet 16"). We are both originally from Louisville. It was just a fantastic day, in a wonderful place...sure glad to see Spring here at last!
