The St Patrick's Day parade in Atlanta will be on Saturday, March 15, this year, starting at noon. It goes down Peachtree Street. See: http://www.foxtheatre.org/deltaRoyalScots.htm Anyone up for more SEKS? That is, want to get together to see the parade? I will be there.
"The 127th Atlanta’s St. Patrick’s Parade will begin at the intersection of Ralph McGill Boulevard and Peachtree Street. The route is 1.1 miles from the start at Ralph McGill to the end at Martin Luther King at Underground. The Parade will proceed South on Peachtree Street, up a slight grade passing Baker and Harris, where the grade lessens through International and Ellis. At Ellis the grade evens out and the terrain remains fairly constant thru Margaret Mitchell and JW Dobbs. From JW Dobbs the grade becomes downhill past Williams, Luckie, Auburn, Poplar, Walton and Edgewood. The Parade will pass the newly renovated Woodruff Park and turn left on Decatur Street. The Parade will proceed approximately 300 feet (1 block) to Pryor Street and turn right. On Pryor the parade will pass through Underground (3 blocks - 1,000+/- feet) to Martin Luther King where it will disband to the right and left. (Police & Parade Marshals will direct) PARADE BEGINS AT 12 NOON SATURDAY MARCH 15, 2008." Is there an Irish pub in Underground Atlanta these days?
