Hello everybody! Hope your having a great week so far! We enjoyed the California Rodeo Salinas and Big week. It was a fun filled, action packed 5 days. The PBR was definetly the highlight for me. Getting to see my bullriding buddies from all around the country, my stock contractor friends, met with photogrophers, and saw all my home town friends. What a blast!

It was a beautiful night, but a bit chilly. Welcome to Salinas where you wear a jacket in the middle of July!! haha
This is me, Austin Whitmore, with the Salinas Rodeo arena in the backround.

| This was too funny. He definitely wins the goofiest dressed cowboy award!! |
 |
| We had a great time with sponsor tent passes, private bars, arena passes, front row seats to the bullfights etc. It was for sure one of the best Big Weeks ever. |
 |
| Another highlight of the week was the California Rodeo Museum. We learned a ton about the history of Salinas and Big Week. If only we lived 50-100 years ago. The whole town came! |
