Hampton Roads (the name commonly used for our area) Pride, is sponsoring "Out in the Park" today. This year it will not be tucked away in some suburban city park, but rather in downtown Norfolk's newly renovated Town Point Park, sitting right on the Elizabeth River... In front of EVERYONE...
It starts at noon (which is good, as there is a line of showers moving through this morning) and runs until 6pm. Normally the Hampton Roads Pride event gets a little blurb or two on the local news, but this year because of it's high profile location, it's been all over the news...
Great move for a great event...
Over and "Out" from Portsmouth, VA USA

The 'rainbow in the mist' picture is amazing... and perfect for this month.
Great news and high visibility always brings to media out of hiding. Be careful what you wish for, they usually go with the lowest common denominator.
If you were able to attend, I hope you post your thoughts, experiences, and any pics you care to share.
"... In front of EVERYONE..."
Where it should be.
Hope it was a great gay day.
