The DC Cowboys entertained with a little do-se-do.
The initial feeling of being surround by some 150,000 other GLBT people is a humbling experience filled with the awe of camaraderie and joy of mutual respect and acceptance. As the parade carried on, a mix of organizations, corporations with floats, and bandwagons of politicians marched through Dupont Circle.
Pride hawk.

We got into Dupont Circle last night and it’s gay, gay, gay! Rainbows galore.
Businesses along Dupont's nightlife corridor on 17th are decked with pride. Retail outlets joined in. The Futon store on Connecticut Ave. has a nice display of ROYGBIV pillows in its window display.
Dupont’s full of great gay establishments like the Human Rights Campaign Store and Lambda Rising…
Lambda Rising on 1625 Connecticut Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 20009
The store has a massive selection of pride merchandise, independent book titles, glbt themed stationary, magazines, and even a children's literature section.
We’re heading out to the Pride Parade and will upload photos to Flickr later.
