We al got up around 6:45 am this morning. I took a shower and went and got donuts for breakfast. Beth hen took a shower while I got Rylee dressed. Dawn, Jo, Julie, and Bethany got to our house around 10 am and we left for Philly. We found a place to park at the end of the parade route and then walked the 12 blocks up to the start of the parade. We waited about 30 minutes for the parade to begin. Here is a picture of us waiting to get in line for the parade. It was faster pace than what I wanted, but I did a good job keeping up. The gym work really paid off. Rylee had a good time handing out beads, but we soon fell behind and she got in the stroller. We made it to the end and I was a little tired. We went to the car and dropped off our bags and then headed inside for the festivities. It was really hot by not and w all had to pee. We found the Pot-A-Potties and then found a place to set. Beth, Rylee, and I all sat and watched the very interesting people and the rest walked around. We finally left around 3:30pm and made the long traffic filled ride home. Dawn dropped us off and we fed Buster and then headed back to their house for pizza. Beth and I left around 7pm as we had t go pickup a item we purchase off the yard sale post. So now we are home and so ready for bed. It was a really great day celebrating gay pride with our friends.
