Salinas Rodeo with Mom

Salinas Rodeo

My mom got here on Friday night and will be staying until August 21st to help us with the baby. Jeff got free tickets to the Rodeo so we went to check it out. We had been there a couple of years ago, and i remember having a good time. My mom said she has been to a rodeo before in Hawaii when she was growing up but hasn’t been to one since. Its a unique experience i think!

When we got there we looked around the booths then ate some lunch – bbq pork sandwiches for Mom and I and philly cheesesteak for Jeff. I of course had to get some cotton candy! We also got to try a free sample of Mango Pineapple smoothie from McDonalds. Very yum on a kind of hot day!

We went to our seats and watched the industrial calf dressing, mutton busting (my favorite!), calf roping, bull-riding and bronc riding. Calf roping is hard to get used to watching because those poor little calves get tossed and thrown on the ground pretty hard. But nonetheless it was fun and beautiful day.

As we were going out my mom wanted to try a funnel cake since she hasn’t ever had one, so we ordered it with strawberries and whipped cream. Yummy fried goodness!
