premise: Grandma , Grandpa , my son , his cousin , and myself all traveled to the Emerald Creek Garnet area yesterday . This is an area set up by the Forest Service for those interested in digging for garnets . In the past , apparently people would go down to the creek and dig there for garnets . However , due to environmental concerns , the Forest Service set up a special situation . They truck the garnets to a site about 1/2 mile from the " main road " ( a gravel road the locals call ' Highway 3 ' ) , where people grab buckets and shovels provided by the FS , and start digging . Why did we travel to the Emerald Creek Garnet area ?
hypothesis: Because I was with my son .
