Pride Fest 09

I was in Harrisburg Saturday for the Pride Fest Parade. I had a wonderful time, I marched in the parade with the TransCentralPA ladies. I think there were 17 of us marching, I was wearing jeans and a yellow top. I was the groups unofficial photographer, you probably saw me wondering around the parade taking lots of pictures.

Gay-Themed Publication - Looking for Local Actors, Men/Women, Straight/Gay
