I got a text last Wednesday from Diego who had been vacationing with his family at Carpinteria State Beach. In an effort to keep her rings safe his wife had taken them off while applying sunscreen on the kids and swimming. As almost always happen, the rings get forgotten and after cleaning up the area at the end of the day Monday they realized the rings were gone.

They dug frantically in the area but couldn’t come up with anything and they searched again the following day but no luck. They found Dave The RingFinder on the Internet and reached out. I was a bit concerned because Carpinteria State Beach gets detected pretty hard but I assured them that I would cover the entire area and if they were still there I would find them. They had already left to go back home from their vacation so I would be mailing these rings back if I found them.

I got out to the beach around 3:30pm and there were lot’s of folks enjoying the day and the area I had been given to search was a bit crowded but I figured I could work around them and I would wait until they left if I needed to. About 5 minutes in I was approached by one of the Lifeguards and he knew why I was there and he directed me to an area where they had been digging for the ring. Another 2 minutes and my Minelab Manticore identified ring number 1 and minute later my CKG scoop had picked up ring number 2.
