Project 52: Green


    During the week of St. Patrick's Day, a mysterious shamrock appears at a major intersection nearby.   This has happened for as many years as I can remember.  The shamrock is big and most definitely green.  Please know that I risked life and limb to get this picture for you.  
     Perhaps it is a small army of leprechauns who come in the dark of night wielding fat green paint brushes to give us this magical shamrock.  I imagine that they celebrate a job well done by clinking their glasses together with a toast at the Irish Pub just down the street.  
     To see more green, visit Darcy at my3boybarians.
     What's at the end of your rainbow?

Cool photo! What is the shamrock made from? Chalk? Glad you didn't get hit and could share with us.

Thank you. It's made with green paint. It fades over time, but it can be seen all year. The wee folk just have to freshen it up each March.
