Received a text from a young lady that stated she had lost her wedding ring set (two rings soldiered together) in a river that she was tubing on Friday July 3rd and asked if I could try and find it.
I said absolutely! The water was only about 2-3 feet deep and she lost it just before some rapids. So after work, I make the 3 plus hour drive and get to the spot. Grabbed my gear and headed down the little hill towards the river’s edge to assess the area.
Once in the water, I needed to try and figure out where she was based on the text message and screenshots received. I finally found what I thought was the spot and I get a good 72 VDI ring signal! It sounded loud and on top! The only issue was it was under a big log. I rolled the log to the right and scanned again. Now I’m really getting a good signal!! I went to get my goggles because I couldn’t see with the water moving and the suns glare. As I was coming back to the spot, the same “SUNS GLARE” actually shined down and I could see a silvery/white gold circle shining!! I reached down and pull it up!
I had to drive a ways to get cell signal back, but once I did I sent her the pictures and she was very happy!
Then I had to drive an hour to their house where I met her husband at the door! I said, “I hear your wife lost some rings!” He said, “Yes!” They both couldn’t believe it was still there and I found them! (on July 8th) Needless to say he was very excited to get them back as well!

“DIG IT ALL, SAVE SOME RINGS, BURY THE DRAMA!”
I am still in disbelief that Shawn was able to find my rings. I texted him in the morning about my rings and he went searching the same day. All he had to go off of was some Google and Apple Maps screenshots of where I “thought” I had lost the rings. It’s a river and a small mountain road so no actual address. He was in an area with no cell service to call and verify with me that he was in the right location. He found the spot, walked through the vegetation to get to the area before the little rapid in the water and was able to recover what I had lost. Forever thankful and I will always highly recommend him!!
Thank you so much!!!
