GOLD GOLD GOLD!
Hey! what’s
that illuminating beauty in the water? HEY THAT’S GOLD! Our trip to Dahlonega
was the best trip yet in my opinion. First we drove through this amazing cozy
town indeed I have been to. We went to the small gold museum and it was really
cool. Later on we watched a cool movie about the gold in Georgia and how
Benjamin Parks stumbled upon a 17 pound gold nugget in his backyard and got 3
dollars off of it. Word spread and
thousands came from all over. At the end of the trip we went to the biggest
gold mine in the world. We also at the
end went panning for gold and I found two pieces. Then we drove on back to the school and that
was the best trip so far. What I learned is that there are no gold nuggets left
in the gold mine, all there is left is gold powder and gold that we can’t even
see. I am glad to be going back soon.
