Trying to get back on track to be in Canada for early July so only spent 3 nights in Arkansas but one day searching for diamonds, no luck though :-( Check out the BLOG!

Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana

Proof that we were in Louisiana

Hundreds of rail cars waiting roadside to be filled with grain

In the middle of no where Louisiana, we’re suddenly in Transylvannia?

Murfreesboro, Arkasas

On the way out to the mine field

You can search on the surface or dig down like the guys in the background have done. The guy was in a hole that was about 7 ft deep.

Sluicing area...we never got that ambitious but some people wash thru many, many buckets of dirt a day!

I know there’s one out here somewhere...

Sparkly found but no diamond!

Swimming area at the park

Getting the inflatable canoe ready

It really does float, in fact quite stable. My shoulders hurt like hell after this first outing, need practice

View of camping area from the canoe

Our site....$12/night, cheap accommodations!
