CDA: Gold Mine

We went digging for gold. (all you nurses stop laughing right now, and get that finger out of the gutter). We went to a gold mine. The best part of the tour was that we all got to wear "Bob the Builder" hats.
I think you can tell by the photo who was having a better time.

Owen didn't care for the hat. He actually didn't care for the tour that much... he's more of an outdoor type of guy.
Suzi and her kids liked it though.

After the cave tour we got to look for gold.

Suzi and I both found a piece (OK fleck) of gold... but the kids all found lots and lots of pretty purple stones.

While I don't think he'll admit it... Lucas had a good time too!

Family photo of all six Ryersons. I think it turned out pretty cute... a Christmas card photo perhaps?
