San Pasqual Battle Day 2000 & 2001Under this main page are pages for both the 2000 and 2001 historical interpretation and all around good time event. As usual, the Californios make shish-ka-bob of the hated Gringos of the US 1st Cavalry. A whole lot of pictures on each page, so it takes some time to load, but breath of the reenactment is clearly visible (and so are Sargento Joe Lopez & Dona Suzanne!).
