Cincinnati Pride 2013

Whew. What a day. After a morning run and lunch, I drove to Newport, had a coffee, then walked the Purple People Bridge to Cincinnati to see the 2013 Cincinnati Pride Parade. The rain fell and slowed things a bit, but the good thing was that we didn't bake like last year. The rain stopped, except for the occasional sprinkling. As usual, I took a lot of pics. There was a lot to see -- lots of support, lots of hotness, lots of oddities (in a good way), and lots of friends. I ran into folks I'd not seen in a while as well as friends from the bar, softball, the movie bears, etc.

I wore my new 2013 Pride shirt and received multiple compliments. A couple of friends have already asked for copies of the toon for shirts. I got my annual HIV test (negative) and was handed condoms and more condoms from multiple sources. I wish I had the sex life these folks believe I apparently have.

The day culminated in a concert by Debbie Gibson who has maintained her voice, her figure, and her dance moves. Click on Debbie below to see the photo set.



Despite the good time, I left the concert a bit early. After sweating all day and being rained on several times, I was worn out. I wanted to get home, shower, and crash. It's been a great day.

Happy Pride Weekend ;)

Hey, thanks for the report - I've been following a number of them wishing I was there to join in. Fun photos too! Loooove your t-shirt... not at all surprised people at the event noticed... of course they also might have been admiring the handsome dude wearing it ;0)
