RING FOUND AT VAN BUREN STATE PARK, South Haven, MI

                            

Dave and Gabby are on vacation from their home in Chicago and camping at the park. Yesterday they were on the beach and Dave took off his hat, put his ring in the hat and then went swimming. He came back, grabbed his hat and forgot about the ring. The ring went flying and they spent about 45 mins looking for it with no luck. They were just married in May of this year and I asked him if he was in the doghouse. His comment was, not yet, but I think it probably depends on what happens today. I met Dave in the parking lot this morning and we had a long walk to the beach. He had marked the area on the beach where it happened with a big tree branch. He showed me the area of not more than 10ft square where he thought the ring must be and I am thinking this is too easy. I took two swings with the detector coil and hit the sweet sound of gold. I knew right away this was his ring so I gave him the pinpointer and let him do the honor of digging up the ring. The look on his face was amazing and he was shocked at how fast we found it. Saved another vacation from disaster. Somehow doing this never gets old!!
