Panning for Gold at Pigeon Forge Gem Mine
The boys had a great time panning for gold at Pigeon Forge Gem Mine in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. You can purchase a certain type of bucket which ranges in price and then you pan for gems. They found some pretty cool stuff which at the end they will help you turn it into jewelry if you would like. It was a fun experience.

Gem Mining
We made a visit to a great indoor gem mining place while on Spring Break. We had so much fun and we all got good at spotting the gems by the end of the day. Gold City is the best and we recommend going there if you are in the area.
Up next is Alex's Taco Bell unboxing and keep an eye out for the upcoming videos introducing each of us and letting you know some back story of our family and the road we have traveled. Thanks for watching.
