Silver Dollar City, Branson, Missouri

Silver Dollar City has a "pan for gold" upcharge attraction that we have always walked past with no real thought about.

 This time though Carrie asked if she could have some "fun with dirt" so we purchased a bag and started to pan for whatever was to be found.

As you can see that Carrie had hit pay dirt....well not gold but lots of pretty rocks.

As you can see here she had stupid fun panning for whatever was in her bag.  She ended up with a bunch of amber, a few arrow heads, lots of pretty rocks and a few dozen sharks teeth.  It wasn't a bad haul and being as crafty (in the good way) that she is she has been slowly polishing the amber and has plans to turn a few of the items into pendants.

If you need to celebrate panning out an epic haul then you should head to Clara Belle's World Famous Cinnamon Bread.  I highly suggest the apple pie cinnamon bread as it is heaven.
