San Francisco Officials Perform Marriage of Gay Couple:

Longtime lesbian activists Phyllis Lyon, 79, and Del Martin, 83, were married at 11:10 a.m. by San Francisco Assessor Mabel Teng in a closed-door civil ceremony at City Hall, mayor's spokesman Peter Ragone said. The two have been a couple for 51 years.
The elderly couple said after the brief ceremony that they were going home to rest and didn't plan anything to celebrate. Still, it was a profound moment for the pair, veterans of decades of gay rights struggles.


awwww. napping after a wedding seems like the thing to do, to me.
