Dan Savage of Savage Love is giving personal advice to everyone who forwards him an email receipt ($25 or more) for supporting California's Gay Marraige initiative.
I just got excellent advice on which pic to use on my dating profile.
The Coastal Conservancy has just published a nicely designed (great photos, really good maps, all current info according to the places I checked that I know) book called, "A Wheelchair Rider's Guide to the San Francisco Bay and the Nearby Coast." I shouldn't be, but I'm boggled at how many places are accessible. Did you know that many state beaches have free beach wheelchairs to loan, with special fat tires for sand? They're meant to be pushed on wet sand. Cool! It's got a lot of info for the adventurous wheelchair user as well as not so adventurous or otherwise mobility-impaired, and includes hostels in the area.
It's free of charge by calling 510.286-1015 or [link] or here, specifically: [link] There's also one for LA and Orange County. Pass the word along.
(Erika, I'm mailing you a copy on Monday.)

It's the West Coast year, so Seattle, Portland, and a more rural/resort-y type of destination have been floated.

If you've got ideas, please stop by and let 'em be heard.
