Warren County Wanderings

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. - Irish Blessing

Usually the photo above depicts some bucolic Warren County scenery, but with St. Patrick's Day coming up this weekend - not to mention 13 St. Paddy-themed events listed below - how could we resist tipping our hat to these traditions? We borrowed the picture from ShopRite's Facebook page, which posted some nice recipes for corned beef and cabbage leftovers.

Not into the whole Irish thing? That's okay, because as you will see, there are plenty of other things to do! Happy St. Patrick's Day, and Happy Wanderings!
