Trying to recap the weekend is kind of challenging, since so much went on.As everyone else has already posted about the national rally for marriage equality, I'm just going to give you my link to my Flickr photo set.
Sorry, I've been AWOL for a bit too long, at least as far as I'm concerned. I didn't have a chance for a Friday post, then I was out of town all weekend, through Monday.
Lest you think we in New York City want to keep all the fun for ourselves, you should know that this Saturday there is a nationwide, nay even global, coordinated protest against the passage of Proposition 8.
