Today’s post is going to be short, but I wanted to talk about a small victory. Although the fundraiser that I was talking about yesterday for the Seattle Space Needle failed to raise the complete $50,000, it did manage to bring in an impressive $40, 031.47 in a short period of time.

So, in thanks for the fundraising efforts of the community, the Space Needle decided to raise the flag anyway and today, it was hoisted by change.org’s Joe Mirabella and the starter of the petition, Josh Castle. There are pictures of the event. They are property of the Gay Rights fanpage on Facebook. Please click on either image to be redirected to their page. Please “like” them! We can always use more supporters.

I’ll be signing off now, so I’ll keep this short and simple. Have a great Pride, Seattle! You deserve it.
