Description
This float represented the Salinas Rodeo from July 17 to July 21 and featured a grassy plain with two horses, covered with gladioli and leaves standing on each side of an original stuffed ox head. A man dressed as a cowboy sits on one of the horses while a young boy dressed as a cowboy sits atop the ox head. Another boy holds a Fiesta de las Rosas banner. There is a house and crowds of people in the background.
