lost ring Ala Moana Beach Tag | The Ring Finders

This ring find began when I got a call from Zoe who lives in Tampa, Florida and was on vacation visiting friends on Oahu.  Zoe just recently purchased the gold plumeria ring as a memento to her visit as it was her favorite flower of Hawaii.  She had taken it off and placed it on a beach blanket for safe keeping.  The wind picked up and was blowing sand and rain.  Zoe picked up the blanket to shake off the sand and at the same time realized the ring had been on it.  Zoe, her Hanai Aunt & a friend searched but couldn’t find the ring in the sand.  I told Zoe I could be there in about 15 minutes.  When I arrived Zoe had already marked the area.  I started up the Manticore and began the search.  After covering the suspected area with no find I expanded the grid in every direction.  Still no ring.  I could see a look of hopelessness on Zoe’s face and I was quite puzzled as to where the ring could be.  I decided to go perpendicular to the initial search and farther down towards the water.  BOOM!  Way out of the initial grid towards the water the Manticore screamed and as I looked down I could see the faint outline of a gold ring in the wet sand.  I yelled over to Zoe and the other girls and they all ran down to the spot to see.  Several hugs and laughs later Zoe’s vacation is saved.  That blanket sure tossed the ring!  Aloha to Zoe!
