IRISH FAIR 2015

The 2015 Irish Fair of Minnesota once again reigned (or should I say rained) supreme over Harriet Island in St. Paul earlier this month.  Even though it was cloudy and rained on the day I attended it it, the Irish Fair was just as amazing and fun as every.

The band shell hosted music throughout the weekend.

Kilts and sporrans.

My friends from Boars Head Leather were there this year.

Michael Hayman is one of my favorite celtic jewelers.

The food booths are always busy.

Pipes and drums greeted us as we entered the festival grounds.

The Cathedral of St. Paul stood guard over the festivities.

The University of Minnesota's Showboat Theater.

A few Irish dogs!
