This week, Senator Sal DiDomenico sat at his home reviewing the video of last year’s DiDomenico Foundation annual St. Patrick’s Day Roast – a yearly tradition bringing most everyone from the state and regional political and civic circles together for one night of good-hearted joking and fun just prior to the overall fun of St. Patrick’s Day in Greater Boston.
“It’s crazy,” he said. “No one is wearing masks. It was the last big event in the state to happen before the pandemic and you can look at it and say, ‘That’s when it all started.’ You look at everyone and see them at the tables eating and laughing at each other and you just get nervous seeing it now. It looks so unusual. Depending on the day, it seems so far away and also like it was just yesterday…No one knew what was coming, and no one could have predicted we’d be in the same situation one year later.”
