Here's marriage story that made me smile:
Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan is conducting a wedding ceremony Thursday for more than a dozen LGBT couples, in a move meant to protest a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage.
The ceremony coincides with the 10th anniversary of the PRIDE LGBTQ Film Festival in the city, and will take place at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater at 10 p.m. following the opening night of the festival.
Along with Kruzan, six members of Bloomington's city council and two members of Monroe County Council are expected to attend and pledge support, according to a news release. Local clergy will also be at the ceremony.
All my best to Mayor Kruzan and to the happy couples, for Thursday and for every day.
