That looks like a great time. Makes me want to travel to attend one year.
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

Yes, I believe that a company or two were there.
The fort isn't on the same spot, due to flooding, etc. The recreation is pretty cool. I haven't been to any events there.

Very good pictures! Whatever is in that jug (and I can guess) looks pretty good. Thanks for sharing!

Robert - outstanding photos!
I have never really understood the re-enactment 'thing' - it presses none of my buttons - but I must say that in this case the re-enactors present an attractive and authentic-looking spectacle ......... although the Cardinal appears to be wearing very modern shoes!!
Take care,
Ham.

Looks like a fun event. The baby in the bucket pic is priceless.

Phil stole my comment. What a beautiful tableau.
I saw this thread on my iPhone just before heading out to lunch. I was reminded of it again, sort of, on my way home when I saw some young people in conquistador outfits learning (or practicing) how to fence. It was startling, because I have never seen anyone in this decrepit abandoned lot before, but having just seen your photos, for some reason seeing people in costume in a city setting was starting to seem rather ordinary.
Thanks for posting them,
Rex.

Great photos, thanks for sharing what looks like a very fun weekend with us. Your basket hilted sword looks like a very nice piece. BTW what is the sprig in your bonnet?
