I was up north in Bear Lake, and Logan over this weekend. Yesterday late in the afternoon I was driving back into town from Bear Lake going past USU when i noticed a couple guys walking down the sidewalk holding hands. I had to look twice, and couldn't stop looking. It was so beautiful to see these guys walking down that sidewalk together. And to think it was in Logan, Utah (next thing to Happy Valley).
One of my stepdadughters was in the car with me, and it was obvious she saw it to, and she looked back. Almost as if she wanted to say something, but didn't.
Nice weekend, family time.
As a Loganite, that warms my heart a bit more.
ReplyDeleteWow! That's a great development... How I hope that America can get to the point where such a sight is no longer a major head-turner (as it already is in much of Europe).
ReplyDeleteAs someone who had newly experienced, it is a new and scary feeling. It was interesting holding my boyfriend's hand very publicly and walking down the river of my town... a town of about 6300 people. We got some snickers from the teenagers that roller-bladed past us. But, I really didn't care. I want to challenge the stereotypes. I also want to feel completely at ease in my own skin!
ReplyDeleteDevin--welcome to the gang. I see you have kids too.
ReplyDeleteDude, I will be in Provo Sunday (7/11/2010)night. It would be great to meet you in person. If possible use my blog email to let me know. I don't know how else to contact you.
