Setting around the campfire one fateful day one of the Brave Deguello's said, "Hey we should be in the parade!" One of the "Older Deguello's Said, "Oh No! We don't WALK!!" The younger Deguello Said, "No! We will build a float, A GREAT float that will make the gentile people stare in awe." And that we did build a GREAT FLOAT and As they say THE REST IS HISTORY.
