Short story about a woman, the ocean, and not much else. Produced at Ocean Beach San Francisco
Donald Bird and David Young have married each other three times, but the San Francisco couple mark their anniversary each year on May 30 — the day they caught each other’s eye in a San Jose park and somehow ended up spending the rest of their lives together. They are watching the Supreme Court, like many other same-sex couples, and hoping the right to marry — which was so vital to them.
