That's Me Digging for Diamonds at Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas, June 15, 2015

Visiting Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro, AR, has been on my bucket list for years! It’s the world’s only public diamond mine. I finally had a chance to travel to Arkansas and dig for diamonds on June 15, 2015. Did I find anything? You’ll need to watch and find out!

“Not that I was thinking you could just walk in sort through some dirt and then come up with a diamond,” I said, “but searching for diamonds and treasure is a lot of work! ”

Additional blog post about the experience is coming soon!
