I drove down to Snowflake, Arizona to visit my Grandparents, Ray and Judy.
While I was there my Grandpa Ray took me on a tour of his gold panning set up he had in his backyard shed.
He never did find much gold, but I have a lot of memories wandering the desert with him picking up rocks and taking them home to the grinder and table shaker.
I think these memories are worth more than gold ever will be.
