“On October 4th we went a San Manuel Pow Wow on the grounds of CSUSB (John’s Alma Mater).

We got there in time for the “”Grand Entry””. It was a fabulous spectacle. There were many different styles of costume, but two of the most interesting were the jingle dresses worn by some of the women and the men’s costumes that included, for lack of a better term, tail feathers.

There were many different styles included, just fabulous.

After the grand entry we walked around the booths selling interesting things, and then came back to watch some of the dance competitions. AJ enjoyed the dancing.
