Here's our booth on the north side of Wellesley St., just west of Church. We don't like the north side so much; too much direct sun. We'll move back to the south side next year.
 
Setting up is a lot of work, but fortunately we had a lot of people helping out. And some early-morning visitors already, too. (Setup started at 10am)
 
We got mostly naked almost right away.
 
That's Richard in the foreground on the right. He was one of the first people to ever march nude in Pride Parade back in 1996.

We had tons of photos on display. It was a good way to get people into the booth and chatting.
 
That's Paul from Ottawa in the hat. He's one of the organisers of GO-NUTS: Gay Ottawa Nudists Under The Sun.
 
That's my partner Peter building the cart we use during the parade. Peter organised all of our Pride Day effort, and did a terrific job of it too.
 
Posing with tourists is one of the things we do the most at the booth.

None of these fellows are actually from Toronto. We get people from all over the world coming to join us. That's George from Virginia in the midle and Michael, a GO-NUTS member from Ottawa on the right.
 
And then there are those who are willing to spontaneously join in the naked fun!
 
John is a member, showing his member. :-)
 
Some fellows needed a little help showing their stuff. These handsome men run www.proudpictures.com. I've got a few of their photos on this site, and they've got many more Pride pix on theirs.

Cute, ain't he? That's Chip from New York, a TNT!MEN member, showing off the official penis cover we wore during the parade. It's bristol board, with an elastic band taped to the back which is worn as a cock-ring.
 
Tom from Illinois travels all over the world for public naked events. He's been marching with us since 1997.
 
That's George on the left, from Richmond, Virginia. I can't remember the other man's name; can anyone help? They are sporting some of the creative cock-covers that Peter and company prepared.
 
What better advertising could KFC ask for?

More posing with tourists. On the left is George, and on the right is Rik, both from Richmond, Virginia.
 
And still more posing with tourists.
 
And even more posing with tourists. Some fellows did nothing else all day!
 
Nearly naked was the rule of the day; it was extremely hot outside. On the left is Kelly, and in the middle is Patrick. "We're from Austin, Texas, home of the moron US President," they told me. They were also two of the men arrested. Michael from Ottawa is on the right.

That's Jim from www.jimspeniscentral.com . He has more Pride pix on his site.
 
That's me, setting up. I'm not really as red as that; the tablecloth is red foil, reflecting the sun.
 
That's Richard applying sunblock to my neck.
 
Sunblock is extremely important when you are a nudist!

The handsome redhead on the left is Tim from Boston. I cannot remember the name of the fellow on the right.
 
We really were the most photographed group of the day yet again.
 
That's me from behind. I'm actually wearing a cock-cover. Or at least I think I am.
 
Paul from Ottawa helped us decorate the cart.

We managed to talk some of the tourists out of their clothes, though some needed some extra help.
 
Starting to get ready for the parade.
 
Buns and boots.
 
There certainly were a lot of interesting tattoos to see. And some very sexy men! This is John from Boston.

Undressing passing men is one of my hobbies.
 
Lovely furry buns.
 
It's time for the parade.
 
That's Richard and Peter, the first two men to ever march nude at Toronto's Pride Parade back in 1996.

Now we are heading north on Church St. up to the parade starting point. At the front in the orange pouch is Blaine from Ottawa
 
That's our cart, in which we stored our clothes, bags, water, costumes, sunblock, cameras, film, and much much more.
 
Peter made the lovely giant penis that Chip is carrying, which made for some campy street theatre.
 
John from Boston certainly has lovely buns!
