Wow, you got the roadside attraction, the pub and the random tire-cover clover flag all in one outing. Impressive.

I was going to throw one more in. There's a bigger Irish pub in Newport Beach, which would have been another 15 minutes down the road. But, it was getting dark, and Mrs. G was texting me saying dinner would be soon.

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.

Needed to get my monthly photo challenge pics for St. Patrick's Day! Couldn't resist the easy, low hanging fruit just down the street.


Then, swung by O'Hara's Pub downtown. Haven't been in there since my single days.


Along the way, spotted this neat Irish flag four leaf clover on a spare tire cover on a golf cart.


So, I had to work for two of 'em.
I work right down the street from you. I work off chapman during the weekdays (but contract ends this week; also do nights up state college). I was looking through some threads and thought I recognized that bar.

Thank you, Tev. The Irish in my DNA is smiling.

There's a difference in riding a naked bike and riding a bike naked.
Won't make that mistake again.

Spent many a night in that bar before I met Mrs. G. A respectable staggering distance from home.

No fair Tev, you have the real thing probably growing everywhere!

Oh heck, it is me, isn't it? Had to go back and check.

Ok, according to the Google AI Overview, April is:

"April is best known for the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, bringing warmer weather, flowers, and the proverb "April showers bring May flowers". It is widely celebrated with April Fools' Day (April 1st) and features major cultural/religious holidays like Easter (often) and Passover, alongside Earth Day, Volunteer Month, and the [Diamond] birthstone."

How about your bike with a patch of flowers or a garden, something having to do with Easter, or something diamond-shaped?

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
