Hamptons Tea Dance

 

the empire state pride agenda's hamptons tea dance has to be the one of 

the most fun parties of the summer. the setting is a sculpture garden/polo field,

and the attendees are incredibly handsome and stylish gay men (plus me and mccall).

at last years tea, we wore red and met steven and daniel for the first time.

this year, we wore blue and attended with them as our old pals.

summer highlight.

note: color-coordination of family portrait unplanned.
