 Us headed to town for St. Patty's Day!

 This is where we are leaving the dinghy

up a little further tied to a tree 

 Now how do we get the dinghy up to the tree ?!!?

We carry it !!

 Gary rinsing the sand off Jayne's feet !

 Melbourne City Hall

 This is a Chocolate Dapple Wiener dog

He was hit by a car and it cost the owners 20+ thousand dollars

to bring him back from death !!

The owner said that because it was such a rare bread of wiener dog

 they could make a lot of money off the pups!

He has sired 252 wieners !!

 Our first stop

MATTS Casbah

 Kilt the Messenger

Great Band!

They did a great 3 part harmony rendition of the
"End of the world as we know it" 

by R.E.M.

 Bob's like....Gary, Gary look at this guy!

Then he gets a shot of them also!

 Bob & Gary bulking up ! Silly guys!

Now we are at Meg O'Malley's

 This is a standard poodle owned by a disabled veteran

from Desert Storm.  I can't believe I didn't get a picture of the vet!

 Obviously, green beer day is a big hit with dogs also !

 Block Party time !

 A guy taking a picture of his girl....

Bob too!

 The back of his shirt says....

"I't's better to be lost at sea, than to be found at work"

You gotta love it !

 Bob told this guy he was the best lookin' guy around 

and had to take his picture !

 We are headed back to the dinghy now...

Awwww....thankfully calm seas

We had a great day today.  We were up early, cleaned a bit, had our coffee and then

ready to hit the town.

Gary & Jayne brought over some yummy pasta and beef for us to eat before going out.  She texted me and told me that food was very important for a day like today.  Who am I to argue!

We went to town and did the usual festivities.  The whole place was rockin'

After a few, to several, beers we finally headed back to the dinghy.  We were back before dark and even got to watch a little Criminal Minds!
