It was a gorgeous Pride day in Portland, and the Mercury showed up and showed out in the city’s funnest and most boisterous parade. The crowds were as thick and as positive as I’ve ever seen, and if there were any rando homophobes (I didn’t see any) they were buried alive by the queer-friendly throngs. The Mercury was there and marching, and this year’s theme (orchestrated and designed by crackerjack art director Kathleen Marie) was “Under the Sea.” Here are some extra juicy pics! Hope your Pride was as great as ours.

LOVED THAT PRIDE! See you all next year we hope!

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
