On this monumental day, I am guessing many of us will be bombarded with the celebration of Legal Gay Marriage in MN. It is a progressive change that will mean many things to many people.
Jeff and I partook of the original vote at the Capitol and it was both nail biting and jubilant. Last night we made a short visit to Wilde Roast Cafe which was hosting a mammoth wedding party to count down the hours. It was crowded and claustrophobic with wedding pictures, wedding cake and a DJ. It was overwhelming, but nice to be a part of.
But on a personal note, I have a pair of friends that took advantage of the date to commit their relationship legally. Rob Thomas and Joe Strong are old drum corps friends who have chosen to trade the big city life for a more peaceful world in a house with 3 dogs down in St Peter. They are active in the community and school district there with exchange students. They were first in line in Nicollet county and I wanted to give a shout out to their new marriage. 17 years in the making. Congrats dear friends.
