heatstroke after the parade

I woke up this morning at 6:30am.

The parade was super fun except for that fact that I had to get my ass up so early. So I figure I was on my feet from 7am till about noon. It was hot today in SLC. The sun was so powerful too. I never sweat...but I was sweating and very very hot. The high today was 89.

Anyway...I didn't drink hardly any water. Heat and no water....equals feeling like crap.
So after the parade we went over to the festival...it was crowded (way too many people)...we were tired, hot and not feeling so good. We went and sat by the main stage...Salsa Brava was playing great salsa music. I think we were at the festival 15 to 30 minutes top. I didn't see one person I knew.

Then Ryan and I walked outside of the festival and got lunch at sizzlers. My sweet Ryan walked all the way back to our car in the heat after lunch and got our car.

So I MISSED all of the festival. I think the festival is the best part of Pride. And I was so tired from decorating and walking the parade that I missed all MY FRIENDS.

Next year I think I'm skipping the parade. And just hanging at the festival.
