Balloons galore at the SF Pride Parade
in San Francisco. This brilliant sea of
color generated plenty of applause.


San Francisco's handsome mayor,
The Honorable Gavin Newsom
got a lot of positive response in
the parade last Sunday, June 29th.


There was a bit of bare flesh in the SF
Pride Parade. Here are Colt models

hollers along the parade route.


There was even a bucking horse
on one of the floats in San
Francisco's parade last Sunday.
No one fell off...


Parting shot - a hunk struts his stuff
at Folsom Street East in New York

something we all enjoy and that we
all expect.
