A St. Patrick's Day BlogMeet

     Brugge wasn't too crowded; they'd made some concessions to the holiday (green T-shirts on some of the help) but the main drinking-green-beer action was down the street: Belgians treat beer with a little more respect than that!

    Clockwise from lower left, The Jack, Fuzzy Curmudgeon, Shomes the Younger, Shomes the Mrs. and Shomes the Shomes, the talented Ms. Joanna and the hat-wearing Tam.  Also, Our Host (upper left), who drives a snazzy red and white Willys civilian Jeep in all weather.  (Yes, that's right, A] drives kewlest of Jeeps; B] knows what it is for.  Man like that, you've got to admire.)
