Lost Yellow Gold and Diamond Engagement Ring at Hickam Beach...FOUND!!!

This ring find began when I got a text from Aaliyah from Green Bay, Wisconsin saying I was recommended by Don my fellow ring finder on Oahu.  Aaliyah stated, « I lost my engagement ring at Hickam Beach.  I’m wondering if you serve that area? »  She also texted it was on Monday and in the sand.  I called Aaliyah and agreed to meet her and her husband Wyatt at the beach before the next round of rain came in.  When I arrived at Hickam Beach Wyatt and Aaliyah were waiting.  They showed me the area and explained she had put the ring in her purse for safe keeping but many family members had been in her purse to get items and she believed at some point the ring must have fallen out.  Wyatt drew a grid box in the sand where they thought the ring would be.  Oahu has had a major storm the last few days and the Kona winds had punished this shore line.  The ring could have traveled in many directions.  I started the grid search and the first item I found was a gold plated cross.  I told them I think that’s a great sign,  Jesus is working with us.  I continued on and when I was on the second to last line of the grid I got a sweet solid tone center line dot on the Manticore and it was shallow.  One scoop and the target was acquired.  As a sifted the sand a tiny yellow gold ring with a big diamond came into view.  I grabbed the ring from the scoop and held it up so Aaliyah & Wyatt could see.  I told them it was one inch out of the grid so it probably wasn’t their ring.  « Just kidding » I said as I handed Aaliyah her ring.  I could see an expression of relief and disbelief at the same time.  The current storm system probably saved the day to keep other detectorists away and from finding her ring.  We were blessed!  Aloha to Aaliyah & Wyatt!
