Golondrinas is a living history museum just outside Santa Fe. Each year they hold Civil War reenactments of battles that took place in New Mexico in the 1860s.
"Aquino Tank Weekend" is the largest and greatest historical military show in Canada. It is the Ontario Regiment RCAC Museum’s biggest annual event. There is nothing like it in the world.
Spanning over three very busy days (9,10,11 June 2023), Aquino Weekend is an event with action packed excitement for both families and history enthusiasts.
The Museum is known world wide for its extensive collection of operational historical vehicles and they are showcased in both static and dynamic displays over the weekend. They will roll out in demonstrations, battle re-enactments, and one-on-one tank battles! The battle re-enactments are second to none. They combine an intensive experience where artillery, infantry, and vehicles encounter each other. These scenarios are narrated and supported by explosions and gunfire (with blanks)!
Just a fun day out and it is as could as it's going to an international "airshow."

San Francisco contractor David Hewes, friend of
Central Pacific President Leland Stanford, was
disappointed to discover no one had prepared a
commemorative item for the completion of the
transcontinental railroad, which was scheduled
to be finished on May 8, 1869. Unable to
persuade anyone to finance the casting of a solid
gold or silver section of rail, Hewes decided
upon a more practical token. Using about $400
of his own gold, he had the William T. Garatt
Foundry of San Francisco cast a golden spike.
The spike was 5 5/8 inches long, weighed 14.03
ounces and was made of 17.6 carat gold. Only
about $350 worth of gold, however, was used to
make the actual spike. The remainder was left
attached to the spike in a large sprue.
