Sunday, 7 June

I was so tired, slept in til after 10 am.... I can't remember when I have ever done that before. I fed the animals before I went to bed - so I could sleep in and it worked. Got up around 10 am and went to the grocery store. Got a bunch of vegetables, milk and juice. I made a vegetable platter to take to Mark and John's house. So we headed out and went to Mark and John's at 1:00 pm. It was a lot of fun, had a great time - drank lots and lots of sangria. A little too much. Around 2:30, we all walked down to Ferndale for the Motor City Pride Festival. We pretty much immediately walked to the Beer Tent and drank quite a few beers. We each got a pitcher and drank it all. Saw so many people I haven't seen in a while, Frank, John, Richard, Joe, Wayne, Justin, Ian, Sean and Chris (and their adorable twins), people from camp, people from work...... lots of people. Too many to list. It was so much fun. We then walked over to Nine. Ran into Joe and Jason and Todd there. It was good seeing them. Joe and Jason are making a big move to San Francisco soon, congrats to them. Beautiful area. Just a really great day. We hung out there for a couple of hours until Pride was over. I met so many nice people, Will and David were a super nice couple that I really enjoyed meeting and talking with. Kurt is Mr. Popular, seems to know everyone. While Pride was coming to a close - decided to walk down 9 mile one more time and checked out the booths. Kurt, Paul and I then went to Pronto for dinner... we had been drinking all day and no food. So ate dinner, hung out there for a bit then it was time to end the day.
