Jousting festival in Mona? Early June, right around the time they throw the baby animal birthday party at Thanksgiving Point. Chalk art event at River Woods? Two weeks ago. And the sheepdog festival? Labor Day weekend at Soldier Hollow. That one was epic.
I managed to drag JR and our friends, Matt and Lindsay to Soldier Hollow as a stop on the way to Michael's first camping trip. And for the record, Lindsay was totally on board. She knows I only pick the best events, even if they sound a bit strange. I have yet to convince the boys...
We saw flying splash dogs, agile and incredibly trained sheep dogs, powerful and disciplined police dogs, and everything in between. The one thing I kept thinking was how much these dogs must love their life. Talk about passionate trainers giving their animals discipline, structure and motivation. I mean what else do dogs live for?
The food was great, the entertainment was incredible. So until next year Soldier Hollow, will be back with Ted competing as a splash dog.
