I sat down and cried when I heard, never thought I'd see this day.
I am so thrilled! As someone from the first country to legalize same-sex marriage, I'm beyond excited that my adopted country now allows the same.
Congrats everyone!
Congratulations all!
Yes!!Quote:

Congratulations, Ms legally married in your new state of residence. :) About time we ALL got some good news!
This is also the week of the Episcopal Church General Convention - which is being held in Salt Lake City this time around. I've been wondering what the rather more conservative Mormons are making of all of us gathered there :cool: Very curious to hear what our priest has to say/if she says anything about that when she returns!
Several weeks ago I marched in the "Episcopal Diocese" section of our local Pride Parade (which was MASSIVE). It was so good to see all of the young people there - both in the parade and watching/cheering. Things have indeed changed from when I was their age, and that was very good to see!
Good on the 5 justices.

Somehow we ended up on the British Consulate float at the Pride parade last night. Their theme was "Love Is Great"

How cool is that!!
Good on all the people who struggled, marched, petitioned, talked and came out, picketed, fund raised, got out the vote, campaigned .... I had a coworker say to me "oh, that's what the government did to us". Nope, we all struggled and won this. I even had my own tiny case with CA unemployment.Quote:

Hallelujah and amen!
I didn't realize this thread was two years old when I clicked on the headline this morning. Dang, what a long hard slog that has been. Lovely photo!
We have friends who married in Mass in '04. They got married on the first day in the first state to have marriage equality. Been fun sharing the ride with you all, TE. :cool:Quote:

That's right! It's best to be cautious. You meet all kinds of crazy people on the internet especially those wacky women's cycling forums. They are just wacky
Thought I'd revive this thread with what we did for my birthday weekend this year. After 16 years together.
