Engagement Ring Lost at Astotin Lake, Lamont County, Alberta Canada.
I received a call from Elizabeth requesting my assistance in locating her lost engagement ring, which she lost while at the lake three days prior to calling me.
After speaking with Elizabeth and asking my customary questions, I agreed to drive to Elk Island National Park, which is a 55-minute drive east of me.
I met Elizabeth at the lake, and she showed me where the ring had fallen off her finger and into the lake. Elizabeth was standing on the dock while wiping sand off her pants, and the ring fell off her finger.
Elizabeth informed me that the ring was near the tenth post on the pier. She had purchased a metal detector from Amazon but was unable to find her ring. I spent approximately four hours in the lake, which was very murky and infested with leeches.
I conducted a thorough search of the area. I was certain that her ring was not in that area. Elizabeth was visibly disappointed with the outcome. I searched alone the pier edge from the water’s edge to the end of the pier and underneath the pier.
I took a break and re-evaluated the situation. I continued to ask Elizabeth questions, and the answer was always the same: the ring fell off at the tenth post.
I returned to the lake with another metal detector and, not five minutes later, I received a positive response. I retrieved her ring between the ninth post. I showed Elizabeth her ring, and she was overjoyed.
Thank you, Elizabeth, for entrusting me with the task of finding your ring.
