Italian Festival: When the saints go marching out

The link above details the annual procession that takes place in the Little Italy neighborhood of Wilmington, DE, my hometown, on the Sunday after St. Anthony's feast day. It's something that I grew up with. My godmother's house was on the route, and we'd sit on her porch and watch it go by.

Interesting link about the saints' procession in Wilmington.

BYW, I am happy to report that in about a month, I will be living in Kent County, MD, which is included in the Diocese of Wilmington. I will, for the first time in my life, be out of the Archdiocese of Baltimore. I am very glad about that, as I believe that Baltimore has been much too liberal. Cardinal Keeler is much more interested in protecting murderers from the death penalty than he is in saving babies from abortion.
