Trigg - Grand Xmas Edventure Xmas Duck Derby Date

We started off our Christmas dates with Trigg.  We went to the Red Hills Desert Garden Duck Derby.  We got there pretty early and got our 5 ducks all decorated and into the bucket.  Then we had some time to spare before the derby began, so we went to enjoy the rocks next door at Pioneer Park.  Trigg was excited to go up the "crack canyon" as he dubbed it.  We were feeling a little too thick for that, but he really wanted to do it, so we let him go up.  Paul went up to meet him at the top.  I went up too and Trigg decided he wanted to go back down too!  I was so pleased that he was so brave to do this and all by himself.  He loved it!  After that it was time for the derby.  We saw Moss, Christie and family there too.  And then the ducks were off down the stream.  They got a little tangled up at the end, but eventually the 450 or so little quackers made it out.  We did not have lucky, prize-winning ducks, but we did find them among the masses and were glad to get them back!  After that we lunched at Burger King.  Trigg was so fascinated with "crack canyon" that we decided to take him out to Snow Canyon to check out Jenny's Canyon.  It's not so narrow, but has really cool carved pockets and shelves to climb around on.  Trigg was brave again and tried them out.  And then it was time to head back  home.  It was a fun day and I think we pretty much wore him out!
