Celebrating Saint David's Day

Unlike Saint Patrick's Day, the patron saint of Wales' day is not widely known in the USA. Nonetheless, this day, March 1st each year, is worth celebrating for Wintertyders as it falls between Mardi Gras and Saint Patrick's Day. Late February is a critical time as the Winter blues bug bites hard in these final weeks. Hence it's good to have a final Wintertyde holiday to prepare for and to enjoy.
