Coming Out at 70, submitted by Pat Gourley

I know many of you
listen to NPR so you may have seen/heard this already. I think the gay
collective the “old gay man” hooked up with is perhaps the Short
Mountain Sanctuary. Long a fertile hotbed of Radical Fairie collective living
in the hills of rural Tennessee. Do listen to the audio if you have 8 minutes.
He has a wonderful voice.

Happy Holidays, Merry
Christmas and may the returning sun shine all over us in the coming year.

About the Author

I was born in La Porte Indiana in 1949, raised on a farm and schooled
by Holy Cross nuns. The bulk of my adult life, some 40 plus years, was spent in
Denver, Colorado as a nurse, gardener and gay/AIDS activist. I have currently returned to Denver after an
extended sabbatical in San Francisco, California.
