I got text from Emily while the wife and I were visiting the kids and grandkids in Richland today; watching the 4th of July parade. Emily, while visiting her parents on Lake Michigan, lost her engagement ring the night before watching South Haven’s fireworks display. I’m an hour away from home and she’s an hour west of me but I just happened to have a brand new detector with me that I was hoping to try out this weekend. Emily had not slept the night before and was physically ill she was so upset over losing her engagement ring. She went as far as buying an inexpensive metal detector in an attempt to locate it with no luck. When I arrived, she and her mother were still searching. As Emily was filling out the paperwork and describing to me what it was I was searching for and the general area she thought had she lost it in; I turned on my new Garrett Vortex VX9, made one sweep and got a double beep, ringing up on the display at 55 and thought to myself, “Whoah, it can’t be that easy!!!!” Sure enough, I put my pin-pointer in the sand and scooped up the ring in a handful of sand and presented Emily with her lost treasure. She immediately started crying and waved her mother over to see. That search, literally, took 10 seconds. The wife and I sat with Emily and her parents on their back porch overlooking Lake Michigan for over an hour chatting and had a wonderful time.
Awesome, just awesome! Thank you so much for helping our family!
