We went "panning for gold" as our activity to mimic the gold rush in 1849. I hid gold safety pins in bowls of rice, the kids had to close their eyes and find the gold. It's a lot harder than you think. But, so was panning for gold.

United States--California
We visited the Golden State of California this week. There are many climates there--desert (the lowest point in the US), beaches, and forests (the redwood trees and sequoia trees grow in California). The tallest waterfall in the United States is found in California.
