its been really hot down here. upper 90's. the fact that the "diamond mines" where not really mines but a field made it extremly difficult to deal with in the heat. but i kept on. i rented a campsite, shovel, screen and a bucket all for around 18bucks. i spent about 4 hours in the field and found a few cool rocks but no diamonds. so i guess i will not be retiring early :(
here are some pics of the fields and the rocks i did find. (jasper on the left and idk what the other is)
goat farm in the surrounding area
Around the campsite/park
spider there was a bunch of huge daddy long-legs but they would move to much for the picture to be clear
