"Pride Parade 2019:" OK, now go home!






The head of the parade passed 11th Street, in front of my apartment building, at around 12:30 this afternoon. I went out a couple of times in the course of the day and banged off a few snapshots. A neighbor with a huge apartment facing the Avenue invited us to a “Parade Watching” party. We watched the parade for a while from there. 


At 7:30, when the front of the line reached the official end; they then held the “closing ceremonies.” At least that was what the news reported. It is now a bit past 9:00 PM. They are still marching. Someone said it will probably go on until past midnight. I am glad our apartment faces the back.  

-ps: the next day I found out that the end of the parade passed us at around 12:30;  that meant it did not reach the end of the route until 2 hours later!















(the end)
