David won two roundtrip tickets on Delta from his employer. We cashed in his good fortune by flying to San Francisco at the end of June. As it happened (just by chance, I'm sure), our visit just happened to correspond with San Fran Gay Pride. Here are some pics.

Russ poses with a few friends on the wharf. There's nothing like a bunch of seamen. |
There was so much more to the San Francisco leg of this trip, including a trip along the coast north of the city, time spent in the Castro and Chinatown areas, and a lot of good eating. Unfortunately, space is limited.
