A Texas woman headed home with a 3.72-carat yellow diamond after a snap decision to blow off errands and head out on a road trip with her family for the day.

Miranda Hollingshead of Bogata Texas had only been at the Diamond Crater state park in Arkansas for about an hour on Aug. 16 when she stumbled across the biggest diamond found there for six years–thanks to recent rains, and a strong enough internet signal.
