Paddy and Rowan arrived at the city boat slip. Mike oversaw the operations as he had for over forty years.
“You listen close to Mike. He’ll not be caring who you are,” Paddy whispered to Rowan.
Rowan smiled and climbed into the boat. Dipping flour sifters into orange dye, they waited while Mike piloted the boat into the river.
“Now lads,” Mike bellowed above the noise of the boat’s engine.
Forty-five minutes later the river sparkled emerald green in the chilly March sun.
“Happy St. Patrick’s Day,” the crew shouted to the jubilant crowd.
“Time for a Guinness,” Mike yelled.
