Pictures by UseppaGin & Paul Miller IV

Bless us and save us. The leprechauns were everywhere on the island celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day. And then the little green ones lined up and paraded up and down the beach.

T’was surely a day to be Irish on Useppa.

Stephan O”Kaufmann was the Ringmaster with Jan Sweeney and Aimee O’Lockhart at his side judging decorated golf carts trailing the Fire Truck along the water’s edge.

And the winners were….

1st Place: Best in Show

2^nd Place: Most Likely to Give You Nightmares

4^th Place: Most Unforgettable
