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.

I received a call today from Chris, who told me that his wife had been doing some yard work and lost her ring the day before. Being available to go and search for them, I got my equipment together, and was on my way. When I got to their house, and was shown the area, I could see some possible problems like power lines close to the property (to cause electrical interference), and a very tight sprinkler system. I had brought a detector that could find a good frequency, and I also switched to a 6 inch coil and lowered my sensitivity because it was a fresh drop; these changes made the hunt for the ring a lot easier. Chris showed me the area, and explained how his wife had removed her ring in order to do some work in the yard, and put it in her pocket, but in the course of the work, she had bent over, and the ring came out, going into the grass. They had searched the area themselves, but were unable to locate the ring. They knew the general area, so I began my search. I made about 3 passes, albeit small ones with the 6 inch coil, but I made sure to work extra slow in order to be sure I covered the whole area. I had just passed over a sprinkler head when I heard that unmistakable low sound in the headphones. I then went to the grass with my pin pointer, and with a little moving of the grass, out pops this beautiful intertwined yellow gold and white gold diamond ring. It was such a pleasure to see the smiles on their faces. What a great day.
