Pride parade pics!

Josh, Gayle, Jay and I ventured to downtown Long Beach last Sunday to take in the Pride parade, and it was amazing! So many good floats, costumes, wigs… it really was a sight to behold! High points included seeing our friend Liz Abbott of Leatherette Heart dancing in the parade, and getting free plastic whistles that Josh and I blew incessantly for the remainder of the parade! The only low point was a couple of hatey demonstrators that showed up to bring down the party. But, high point, when those demonstrators were packing up to leave a huge group of parade-goers stood in a group yelling “go home!” at them.

Which I guess isn’t very nice… but really – if you are that against their lifestyle, stay home. Don’t try to rain on the parade. Uncool dudes, uncool.

And, another high point, some of the gals from RuPaul’s drag race were in the parade! WIN! Click on the picture to check out the rest of the pics Gayle and I snapped at the parade!
