Police Estimate 25,000 at San Diego Equality March
It was overwhelming to be surrounded by so many people, gay and straight, who were marching for the same cause - equality for all.
Chris and Dan - married in June and together for 13 years - wore shirts that Chris designed (see previous post). And Chris donated his design to march organizers who printed it on many of the volunteers' t-shirts.
The whole day was exhilarating and emotional. I felt empowered and hopeful as I marched with friends and strangers.
But I have to throw in a little kvetch about the weather. Enough with the Santa Anas already! It was easily 475 degrees on that pavement. I felt like an out and proud woodfired pizza.
