I wish I could say we had a song on Super Simple Songs for St. Patrick’s Day, because if any day deserved a fun song that everyone could sing, this would be it…but we don’t. I think there is “green” in one of the color songs on Super Simple Songs One…but don’t quote me on that….we’re in the 12th month of classes so the color songs came and went 11 months ago.

As a kid, it was my dream to learn to play the bagpipes. I wanted it more than anything…for about a year. I don’t know why I never did it. Maybe it was the whole kilt thing.

This shot from the Tokyo St. Patrick’s Day parade today got me thinking I should have just put on the kilt and learned to play the thing.

But that bagpipe dream was soon replaced by a short-lived dream to learn to play the sousaphone. I wasn’t sure about that one today.

Maybe if he had had a green mohawk?

But anyway, long story short….I think I’ve decided that I want to learn to play the bagpipes again.

But that could just be the Guinness talking….
