The lovely weather is here, and to take advantage of the summer’s travel opportunities I offer you PlanetOut’s 2006 Travel Awards. However take these recommendations with a grain of salt. One of their event runners-up included Philly Pride which I found to be one of the most un-fun pay-to-be-gay festivals with an ultra short parade, which is sad considering how much bigger than li’l ol’ PDX Philly is. Another really great resource for the queer who knows where he/she wants to go is PurpleRoofs.com. This website allows to to stay gay where ever you go and I appreciate the freedom.
