It wasn’t a needle in a haystack, but a ring in a corn « play box ». I was contacted by Sarah who said she lost her engagement ring while playing in a large « play box » of corn at Lakeland Orchard and entertainment area. We had to wait a couple of weeks until I became available to look for it and we were worried because this is public recreation area. When I arrived, I was amazed at the size of this paly area. Sarah was unable to meet me so she sent her mom to show me the area she thought she lost it. I arrived before the mom but the owner of the center had already showed me the general area. As I began to search, I had a great signal in about 2 min. The corn was about 18 inches deep and kept moving like quicksand as I used my pin pointer. I used my beach sand scoop and after a few scoops I found the ring.
I sent a photo of the ring to Sarah and she was amazed I found it so fast. When her mom arrived, I handed her the ring and she just began screaming with joy. I just love returning jewelry and seeing the smiles on the owners faces.
Tracy, this has got to be one of the best stories I’ve read on the ring Finders. Truly amazing!
