Alamo Pilgrimage 4: Living History part 1

Over the March 6 and 7 weekend, The San Antonio Living History Association sponsored exhibits on the Alamo grounds.

Let the Special Event begin.

Author J.R. Edmonson enthralls the crowd as Jim Bowie.

Jeff Beardon as Davy. Dang, I missed his performance.

Well-dressed gent No. 1

No. 2

An Alamo cooking demonstration. Nuts, they were not offering free samples.

More Living History tomorrow.

    Wonderful images. To tell thee truth, this is amazing, because until this moment, the Davy Crockett image in my mind was John Wayne.

    Is nice to see such act of reconstruction. Here in Spain we have the "Muslims & Cristianns" holydays in summer in many, many towns. But this, the Alamo, well... i see it as a way to remeber (and have fun too)

    Did you watch the YouTube video, Deka? These guys had fun shooting off their guns.
