Taos Pride
Today we marched with PFLAG to honor those slain in the Orlando shootings. We each wore t-shirts representing one of the fallen and I was Geraldo Ortiz-Jimenez. I actually got pretty teary when I got my shirt.
Lots of people came out to support the "rolling parade" (parade on one side of the street, traffic on the other), and most everyone was excited and supportive. In fact, the only ones who didn't smile and wave and cheer were a few of the drivers on the other side of the road who were probably less homophobic than they were annoyed at the fact they couldn't get where they needed to go...
Not the best of selfie, but you get the idea...
This was who I represented. Another really moving moment came when the woman who represented the spouse of the guy on Cody's shirt sought him out in tears.

Best outfit of the day, by far!
The parade ended at the Pride in the Park event. These people are so Taos. In fact, this year's theme was "Be Who You Are," which is also very Taos
