Wedding Rind Found in Backyard, Howard City, MI

You never know what you are going to run into but this one tops the list of the most unusual place to find a ring. Bryant sent me a text stating his wife Tania lost her wedding ring in the backyard today. They were doing some fall cleanup in the backyard and Tania threw a pumpkin overhead with two hands and her ring flew off with the pumpkin. There is a propane tank about 10 to 12ft in front of her and she thinks she heard a ping of the ring hitting the tank. So, I start searching the area from where she was standing toward the propane tank and thinking it might have bounced back after hitting the tank. Not getting any good signals and then Bryant taps me on the shoulder and shows me her ring. He was on the other side of the tank and he moved an old tire that was laying there and he saw a flash of light inside the water filled tire. There was her ring! It must have bounced off the top of the tank and landed inside the tire. Bryant goes into the house and gives her the good news. She comes out of the house and I said, « did you give this guy a big hug for finding your ring? ». She gives him a big hug and a kiss. They have been married for 23 years and this is also a special day for her, HER BIRTHDAY. It cannot get much better than this.  Update:  Bryant now tells me he moved the tire from in front of the propane tank so I could search that area.  So, the ring did bounce off the tank and back into the tire.
