I got a call on my lunch break today from a fellow who was on vacation this past weekend in Vermont and lost his wedding ring. He was sweeping snow off his truck with his bare hands and felt his ring go flying off.
He and his friends searched for a long time. They even dumped many kettles of boiling water onto the snowbank and bought an inexpensive metal detector from a nearby store. Nothing worked.
Unfortunately, he had to go back to his home town and go to work today. So, he sent me the address and photos of the location. As soon as I got out of work, I gathered up my equipment and drove there. A couple of his friends were still there and they showed me the search area.
I started the search on the side of the snowbank closest to where his truck was parked. Then I moved to the back of the bank, took a few swings and right where my next swing was going to be, I saw his ring peeking out from the edge of the snow! Love that moment!! I immediately sent him a picture of it, and he and his wife high fived at the news.
