Was over by Loring Park on Friday and saw they were setting up the park for Pride. I stopped to take some photos.
Sadly it was cloudy but Saturday turned out to be a sunny, breezy, and overall gorgeous day. My friend Warren and his boyfriend rented bikes and headed down to the park around 2:00 p.m. They reported that it was packed with people and that there was an elevated energy level this year probably due to the recent Minnesota law granting marriage rights for gay couples and for DOMA being struck down nationally this past week.
