Robert called me today to see if I could help him find his ring that he had lost yesterday. He and his wife had been entertaining friends from the UK, and decided that because it was such a nice California Christmas day, that they should go to the beach. After spending some time there, Robert was shaking sand off of one of the towels when his ring went flying off of his hand and into the sand that surrounded him. He had previously dislocated his finger, which caused his knuckle to be smaller than it was when his ring was originally fitted, so off it went. I then asked him if the beach groomers had been through there since yesterday, and he said he could tell they had, wherein my heart dropped a bit, knowing how thoroughly the county cleans this beach. I committed to do the search anyway because  circumstances don’t always favor the machine. We agreed to meet, and Robert showed me the area, the smoothness of the sand confirmed what Robert had told me. It is always good when someone knows exactly where they were when the ring was lost, it doesn’t always make it easy, but it keeps us in the area, and increases our odds of a successful search. I did a grid of the area going the way in which one would have concluded the ring would have flown when leaving his finger. After about 45 minutes, I decided to change detectors because the one I was using was having a bit of trouble with all the iron in the sand. I began a grid in the opposite direction, and after about 10 feet, got a solid sound in the headphones. In went the scoop and out came this beautiful ring; Robert’s ring. All of this is going on, and Robert is watching me, or bending over and digging in areas he thought the ring might be with his 7 week old baby strapped to his chest. The baby was a great searching companion, who slept the whole time. It was great to be able to give Robert his ring back, and to see his joy back. He thought it was gone for good, but it is back where it belongs. Great day!

Robert sent me the following email to include here.

Steve

Many, many thanks again.

Ring Thrown off Balcony .. Recovered .. Huntington Beach, CA.

Tuesday  12-23-14

I had two calls within 20 minutes Tuesday morning. Both lost rings were lost as a result of arguments with spouses and the rings were thrown. It happens more often than people like to admit. I choose to search for the one that was lost in a public area first but  had no success in locating that ring. I’m sure it was found by somebody as it was a wide open area with hardly any hiding places.

Nikki’s mother called me about the ring and neckless that Nikki had thrown off a second floor apartment. They had searched for two days finding the neckless, but the ring was still waiting to be found. Nikki was embarrassed about her actions, but helpful with her description of how she threw the ring. The neckless did fall just in front of a large boxwood shrub. Then there was a 7 foot fence separating her garden area from her neighbor’s yard. The large shrub was going to be a challenge that I wasn’t wanting to tackle.  I decided to try the neighbors yard first, because it was more detector friendly. We could eliminate that area first, although it seemed like it would be pretty far to throw a small ring. First problem was the neighbor was not home and the gate was latched from the inside. Nikki called them and was given permission to search the yard. I found a ladder that helped give me access to open the gate. It only took a few minutes to find the ring. She was very happy to have it back on her finger, but still remorseful for losing her temper. It was a ring that had belonged her spouse’s grandmother and very sentimental to both of them.

Nikki, Thank you for the reward and especially the jar of homemade salsa..

Lost Wedding Ring in Back Yard Northridge, CA…Found.

I received a call from Christian yesterday in the evening after he and his wife had searched for his wedding ring, lost in their back yard. I arranged to meet him today, knowing the ring was not going anywhere, being that it was his yard, which took away the immediacy of the search. Christian had been in the yard with his children, and their newly acquired rescue dog. The dog had a habit of jumping up on people, and while they were in the yard he began to jump on his children. Christian then tried to get the very powerful dog to stop. He put his hand down to push him away from his children, and the dog moved in such a way that his movement caused Christian’s ring to pop off of his hand and into the grass. He saw the direction of where the ring landed, and they searched. The problem was that there was a good thatch in the grass which made it thick, and it swallowed the ring as soon as it hit. I got to the site, and got to searching. It took a couple of passes beginning a grid to insure that the whole area would be covered, and the ring was found very close to where Christian had thought it would be. He had told me how he and his wife had gotten very emotional over the ring’s loss, so it was a great pleasure to see his joy returned when I handed his ring back to him. When I watched Christian put his ring back on, I wondered how this encounter with his dog could have made this possible, because it seemed to be very tight on his finger. I then got to meet the culprit in this loss, a sixty pound, solid muscled pit bull terrier with a sweet disposition and a lot of energy, and was glad I did not wear my ring when I pet him. I am glad to have been able to sweeten this family’s Christmas this year.

Charm Lost in Manhattan Beach, CA…Found.

I received a call from Ben this evening about a charm his girlfriend had lost at the beach this last Sunday. I knew that because three days had passed, I would have to get on this one immediately. Fortunately we had some storms this last week, which kept people off of the beach, and also kept the beach cleaning equipment from working the beach. Because of these factors I figured we had a fair chance of finding the charm. Ben and his girlfriend had been on the beach between the volleyball courts, tossing a football around, and scrimmaging for fun. It wasn’t until after all the fun, that the charm was found missing. I got to beach, and met Ben, he showed me the area, and I got started. It took about 15 to 20 minutes until I heard a good sound in my headphones. I had already found a quarter, and a dime, but this time when I pulled out my scoop, I told Ben, I think I found what you are looking for. This charm means a lot to Ben’s girlfriend, so he knew she would be happy to have it back. I could see that Ben was very happy to be a part of finding it for her. More smiles today.

I was contacted by Tony regarding his daughters lost 1/2 kt. diamond earring. Tony said the diamond earring had belonged to his wives grandmother and finding the missing one was imperative.

Tony said his family had been at his fathers house (Tony Jr.) in Texas City playing volleyball in his backyard. Aviana had gotten to close to the net, and the net pulled the earring from her ear. Tony said, Aviana stopped immediately after feeling the earring being pulled from her ear. Tony said the entire family searched for the earring in the grass, but they were unsuccessful.

Arrangement were made to meet (Tony Jr.-Dad) at his residence on Saturday afternoon to search for the lost earring.

12-13-2014

Arrived Saturday afternoon and met (Tony Jr.) at his residence in Texas City. Tony gave me a walk through of where they believed the earring had fallen after being pulled from Aviana’s ear. I noticed several fresh dug plugs (holes) in the ground. Tony said his son had borrowed a metal detector from a neighbor in an effort to find the earring.

Prior to the good news, Aviana and her mother Courtney arrived and were able to witness the recovery of the lost earring.

Lost Ring off Balcony … Recovered … Long Beach, CA.

Last week I received a call about 9am from Luis asking me if I could help him find his platinum wedding band. Luis had looked for the ring for a whole day and a half. Then he got online thinking he could buy or rent a metal detector. Finding TheRingFinders directory and he decided to call me.  He lives on the third floor of a high rise apartment complex. Standing on his balcony sweating the dust off a cushion, he heard a ping sound but didn’t realize it was his wedding band hitting the floor. A couple minutes later he realized that he was missing his wedding band that he has had been wearing for fifteen years. We discussed the details of the search area and I decided it would be better to wait till 3pm to meet up with him. It sounded like it was possible that the ring could have landed in his neighbor’s the ground floor patio which is about 3 feet larger than the upper floor balconies. We would not be able to search that patio, because neighbors had not returned from their weekend trip.

I had about 5 hours to put together a game plan for the search. Not knowing the location my mind ran through all kind of possibilities. When I got to the building I saw two sets of balconies. One set of had a big garden area with a lawn lawn in front of it and the other had a small garden area with a large asphalt driveway leading down to an underground parking lot. I was hoping the one with the lawn was going to be where Luis lived, because it would be more detector friendly. Well, it was the other area with the small garden. It only took about a half hour to go through it with my detector followed up by crawling around with my pin pointer ( hand held detector ) checking all the hard to get at spots. It’s important to keep the right frame of mind. It’s easy to give up on a search just before the miracle happens. I wasn’t looking forward to checking the underground garage and the drain, covered by a grating that couldn’t be removed.

Luis’s wife Melissa came down to tell us we had permission to get into the neighbors patio. We went into the patio and the first thing I saw was a mass of large potted ferns in corner most probable place for the ring to be. It was also loaded with many dry leaves. It looked like it was going to take some time to do a thorough search. Luis started looking on one side of the patio and I started scanning around the potted ferns using a  small 6″ coil on my detector. It was hard to stay positive looking at the mass of ferns.  Before starting to look through the fern leaves, I checked against the wall and the miracle happened. I saw the ring hiding in the leaves against the wall. Without touching the ring I took a couple photos of the ring before I called Luis over to see it. Again I don’t know who was happier, me or Luis.    » The ring wasn’t lost, it was just waiting to be found «
