St. Pat's Parades, 'Mary Poppins', Stone Harbor Shiver

South Jersey's trio of St. Patrick's Day Parades step off Saturday in Atlantic City, Wildwood and Sea Isle City.

It is almost impossible not to have a good time at any of these annual Irish get togethers, but dress warmly, as temps are expected to remain below freezing, downright cold for mid-March.
