I chaperoned a class field trip for Griffin
and had the pleasure of driving
three spastic best friends in my car for 2 hours.
I listened in on a rousing game
of truth or dare that unfolded in the back seat.
It was very educational.
We headed to a gold mine in the outskirts
of the North Georgia mountains.
We panned for gold.
Look, there's gold in them there hills!
We did a little gemstone mining.
We also travelled miles down into the gold mines.
We saw some amazing sights
and learned some really cool facts.
I love being a stay-at-home mama
so I can be available to go on these fun trips.

That place is so cool!
We are never to old or young to explore!
Very cool!!! My kids did that at Knott's Berry Farm once many years ago- but there is also a place where gold was discovered in CA where my hubs grew up. You can still pan there. Have yet to get the kids there. There is a gem mining place a couple hours from here in MT that we want to check out. So much fun & educational.
looks like fun... and not too far from me. i live right on the the other side of them thar mountains... ;)
I want to pan for gold, too! Awesome field trip!
