Daughter’s Lost Necklace Found Days Later – Emerald Isle, NC
An official from Emerald Isle spotted a young girl combing through the sand, who shared that she had lost her necklace and appeared quite distressed about it. Later, the same official saw me metal detecting further down the beach and informed me about the lost necklace belonging to Anna’s daughter. I reached out to Anna and conducted a search the following day. Regrettably, a large group had set up right where I needed to search. I did my best to search the surrounding area without intruding on their space, but the necklace remained elusive that day.
A few days later, I arranged to meet my friend Carl in the same vicinity. He had already been scouring the beach by the time I got there. As I began a grid search above his location, I mentioned the lost necklace to him. To our astonishment, he produced Anna’s daughter’s necklace from his finds pouch! Having trustworthy friends is truly invaluable. The Kendra Scott necklace might not have been expensive, but it clearly held significant sentimental value for Anna’s daughter.
Caitlin called In reference to locating her necklace, that was lost on the beach. She told me she had left to go home, but knew the exact location where it could be. She explained that she took the necklace off, and placed them inside her hat, which she then placed on her blanket for safe keeping. When she was getting ready to leave for the day, she had forgotten about the necklace, and placed the hat on her head and started walking up the dune path to head home. It was very windy that day and at one point the hat had blown off her head. After retrieving the hat, she continued over the walkway. When she got to the top, she realized she had placed her necklace in the hat and it was gone. She went back to take a look he wasn’t able to find anything. I was able to go the following morning, and after about 20 minutes I was able to locate the necklace. Unfortunately, the cross was nowhere to be found. My guess is the cross never came out of the hat and was lost in a different location.
While traveling back home from Arkansas over the weekend I had encountered a big mishap at our stop over outside of St Louis on Saturday night.
I was on the road heading home from a recovery, when I saw a message come across from Alan. He lost a very sentimental gold charm, on the volleyball court the day before and was very interested to see if I would be able to locate it with my metal detector. He told me it was a private location, and with that I knew I had some time before I had to get to his recovery. I asked him to give me a call later on in the evening and I would see what other calls I had in that area and try to schedule them together. As it turns out, I was heading up to that area the next morning and told Alan I would do his recovery right after I finished the first one I had already scheduled . I got all the details I needed, as he was 95% sure the Charm was on the volleyball court. Once I got there I made a couple of paths along the one side of the court, when I got a sweet tone from my metal detector, and sure enough, it turned out to be his charm. I sent Alan a picture, which he could not believe that I was able to locate it. He was not in the area anymore, so he requested that I leave the charm with the homeowner. Alan requested to withhold his picture, and I fully understand , some people just don’t want to be on Facebook. Another recovery in the books .
