I-Phone Lost In The Snow! Starling Neighbourhood Edmonton Alberta
I received a call from Kristopher requesting my service to locate his I-Phone which he thought he had lost in the snowbank when his car became stuck. When I arrived I could see where Kristopher had dug himself out of the bank so I searched the area but I couldn’t find the phone. He told me that he had also been stuck at the end of the alley. I could not find his phone there either and told him that somebody must have picked it up. He was very worried and then out of nowhere, a lady came up to us and asked us what are we doing. We told her that we were searching for a phone, and she told us that her neighbour had picked a phone up off the side walk. We knocked on the neighbours door and, yes, he had picked up his phone.
Kristopher was very thankful to have his I-phone back in his hand.
Kate reached out to me wanting to know if it was possible to locate her engagement that slipped off her finger during the day somewhere at the beach. It was late in the evening, and after determining that it was close to high tide when it most likely came off, it would be best to wait until the early morning low tide. We arranged to meet early the next morning at the dune walkover. As we were heading to the location I had asked her to mark in google maps we talked about the main things she could remember leading up the the ring disappearing. Once we got to the spot, she showed me some pictures she had, before and after the ring went missing. Something didn’t look just right, but I figured I would check the area that was marked. After coming up empty handed I asked her to see the pics again, it was then I knew that was not quit the right location. I adjusted the location about 40′ to the north, and things looked just right, including the piles of seaweed that had pushed high up on the hill the prior day when the pics were taken. Kate confirmed after looking at the pics that this was absolutely the right location. Combined with the rough surf, was the fact that she was boogie boarding, and that is never a good thing when doing a recovery. Kate did remember one wave that knocked her down, where she lost the board, and that was luckily close to the beach in waist deep water. I decided to hit that area real quick, and while Kate was in about knee deep water looking, I got a signal that made my eyes open wide. With the waves crashing right where I was, I took extra time to zero in on the exact spot, and hoped to grab it on the first scoop. Sure enough I had it on the first try, BINGO, it was her absolutely stunning ring!!!!! Kate had no idea what had just taken place just a few feet behind her, as I scooted up the hill , past the waves to get a better look and clean it off. At that moment I decided to make a video to capture her response, which you will see I’m not very good at. (Will be posted soon) Her reaction was something that makes this profession SO SO rewarding that no words could ever explain.
