Happy and Gay Like You Wouldn't Believe
I did indeed make it to Winnipeg's Pride March on Sunday (as promised earlier), and I'm glad I went, on what turned out to be the first weekend of the year for completely decent-without-qualifiers weather. :) I'm actually pleased to have some sunburn on my neck and shoulders, because it means this "summer" thing everyone talks about is more than just a rumour...

Given the warm, sunny weather, the turnout was great, and I saw a number of people I knew along the way--but fewer than I expected. :/ I'm not sure what's up with that.

Most of my marching time was spent seeking out a float with decent music to walk beside, and it was a decidedly mixed bag until I found a winner in the "Adam and Steve" float. ;)

After that, it was just a matter of hanging around Memorial Park, watching some of the requisite song-and-dance acts, and checking out the display booths before heading home...

Speaking of which, you know the demographics have shifted at an event like this when companies like Investors Group and Sears Portrait Studio make an official appearance. :}
