Wow.
I had no idea this was going to be such an important day. On Wednesday, Gavin Newsom (mayor) and the city of San Fransisco invited gay and lesbian couples from around the country to get married at City Hall. By Friday afternoon, 665 homosexual marriages had been performed, with hundreds of couples still waiting. Weddings are expected to continue through the weekend and Monday's holiday. And the first couple?

These two are celebrating their 51st anniversary this year.
Wow.
Information from San Fransisco Chronicle, MSNBC, and the Daddy, Papa and Me blog. Good luck, guys!)
