Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hello from Chicago! I'm here for a conference called GlobalShop. It's an annual show focusing on retailers. I'll be looking into the latest and greatest in digital signage, visual merchandising, and in-store decor. Today I walked around downtown doing some competitive research, and yes, a little shopping. I hear the Chicago River is usually a shade of green, but right after this weekend's St. Patrick's Day festivities, it looked like this:


I heard it was a much brighter shade on Saturday, March 15, after the city parade. They actually pour an orange dye into the river to get it a brighter shade of green. Crazy stuff!
