    With any luck, you'll have the end of DOMA to celebrate. Be proud, NYC!

    This usually my only Pride event http://joemygod.blogspot.com/2013/06/nyc-drag-march-june-28th.html

    But...

    Edie WIndsor is Grand Marshal of the Pride March Sunday. If the news is good, I might have to skip the bike ride I was planning.

    Edie Windsor being of course the lead plaintiff in United States vs. Windsor, the case that will hopefully overturn DOMA.

    With her late wife Thea Spyer:

    I know they're announcing DOMA this week. I hope it's a positive one. Then this pride will be more amazing than it already has bene.

    I've marched a couple of times, and was surprised to find it such a powerful personal experience. It is also long, slow, and hot! Water, sunscreen, and wide-brimmed hats are all well advised!

    Yes, it will be a great Parade. And Edie will raise the roof on the place.

    And don't forget the dance on the pier. With Miss Diva herself performing. Cher.

    Should be an incredible weekend in NY.

    Happy Pride!!! I am headed off to watch on a rooftop, what a wonderful week. I met Edie at stonewall earlier in the week, she is such a gem! Hope you all have wonderful celebrations.

    Here's a picture of the Empire State Building in Pride Colors. Hope it fits. A remarkable weekend in NY, SF, Chicago and elsewhere.
