Sierra
Madre's float. Lots of energy. Beach Boys song. Skaters. Great job.
Around these parts we're not used to seeing Trojans wearing blue and gold. But, this group did it with style. I was interested in this band on its name alone. Soddy Daisy, is a Tennessee town about the size of Sierra
Madre (12,000 people) and fields an impressive band. The banner carrier on the right has either found something really funny or is in excruciating pain after walking five miles.
Bobby
Grich. Angles second baseman in the 70's and 80's. In '81,he led the league with 22
HRs, in baseball's pre-juice era. The venerable Valley Hunt Club, which started it all 120 years ago. I imagine that this is what floats looked like in the parade's early days.
I liked the monkeys, but an off year for the generally stellar Cal Poly float.
Flags and mountains. You only get this view on Sierra
Madre Blvd.
Oh yeah, there were fairies on horseback.

Gotta watch the parade from your vantage point one day. You guys seem to have the most fun!
the giraffe with the broken neck.....sad
Well of course. Fairies on horseback.
I didn't know there was still a Valley Hunt Club. Off to Google. Thank you, Michael!
