St Pete (FL) Pride Fest
I've uploaded some pictures I took at the event to my Photobucket account:

The parade's Grand Marshall was Susan Stanton, a Florida city manager when she was Steve Stanton who lost his job for a desire to transition MTF. Article link and Article Link. The Fest day was also dedicated to the memory of Ryan Skipper, a 25yo Florida man who was murdered in March 2007 by two men. It is being defined as a hate-crime. Article link. The parade was pretty grand, not as long as expected. It was 100-degrees out, and everyone loved the REALLY long pride flag unfurled for a couple blocks at parade's end.
Also here's a rather surprising catch of the camera -- I saw a rainbow as I was leaving town (ran into the rain that made it not 10 minutes down the road!)
