Today we went diamond hunting. That's right, I said diamonds! I mentioned how much Hannah loved diamonds so Anita took us to a place to get our own. Actually it is a mineral that is locally called "Pembina diamonds" as they are found here in the Pembina Valley of Manitoba. They were located on the side of a gravel road on the way to Anita's dig site. The grounds looks grayish but once you start walking around you start to notice sparkling stones in the ground. They are hard to see at first then they suddenly appear everywhere. We got a small bag full in just a few minutes. I think Hannah will love having a handful of diamonds!
you really can't see them at first but there are tons of them in the gray dirt
here are just a few of the diamonds we found
