St. Patrick's Day Parade


It's St. Patrick's day so I hope you all wore your green - you wouldn't want to get pinched!  Trophy Gardens and Winter Ranch have put their parades together the last few years and that was the name of the game today.  We at Winter Ranch met at the DeKeyrel's home to get arranged and ready to go over to Trophy.
