I received a text from a client who stated her husband had lost his wedding band in a field by their house. We spoke on the phone and set up a time for me to come out. It sounded like a pretty standard search, this time of year I worry about the amount of daylight I have when I go out in the afternoon. There were two things about this search that struck me…one was the ring was stainless steel and the other was this was one house away from a previous client.

So as with all of our searches there are the stories that go along with them and this one was pretty cool. First, it wasn’t my previous client that recommended me, it was her grandma…I got a nice chuckle out of that (Thanks Gram!). Secondly, was the story about the ring and why it was made of stainless steel. Jocelyn’s father was a machinist and he made the ring. Then I was informed that the pastor who married them had passed away and that their wedding was the last marriage that he blessed. So therein was the story behind the ring, the special extras that make this wedding ring extra special!

Next came the ride in the side by side, now I was getting a bit nervous. I thought this was going to be by the house but then we were driving up into a huge farm field across the road. On the way up Johnny explained he was tossing pumpkins in the field when he felt the ring slip off. He said it slid off when he was moving his arms backwards. He dropped me off and I marked my starting point with my shovel and a large tree limb I pulled from the wood line. I searched for a long time back and forth, when suddenly I realized – it is hunting season dummy, where is your orange…too late. I hoped my bright blue hat would be enough that I wouldn’t be confused with a big buck.  Then I found the pumpkins he tossed further out from where he left me off. I also found a large stainless steel nut they had tossed in the field when they had been looking with a metal detector. I picked it up and put it in my pocket for later. So daylight was waning and I started getting more nervous and was planning in my head for coming back out on Sunday to look again. I took a break, got out my phone and said the St. Anthony prayer for lost items. Then I put my phone away and got back at it, this time picking up the pace. I decided I would quickly search below my starting point. So I began going the other way from the tree branch I placed as my marker and within about 3 passes BAM…I found it (Thanks St. Anthony). It was starting to get dark and a huge sense of relief set it. I gathered up all my things and walked back down to the house. I sent a text saying I was done. Johnny came back and he was guessing I did not find it. Before letting the cat out of the bag, I told him that I did find something and handed him the big stainless steel nut. Then I told him there was something else and returned his ring. He was convinced I hadn’t found it and gave up because it was dark; so he was surprised and happy to have his ring back. It was great to meet more kind and generous people like Johnny and his wife and keeps me looking forward to the next client(s) and the next find.

This one starts out with the proverbial “needle in the haystack”…. I received a text from a client who was at a pumpkin patch and her husband had just lost his wedding band playing in a hay area. While looking for the ring a nearby patron said hey – my mom lost her ring a while back and a guy came out and found it…let me get you his number (thank you for the referal – small world!!). So unfortunately I was unable to head out that night, luckily the farm was closing soon and the clients had secured permission for me to come out first thing in the morning.

I went out the next morning and met Jennifer and Brian who showed me where the ring was lost. There was a large shed with hay bales stacked up and hay all over the floor. I began to search right way…I was told I could search but only until they opened. It was a very rainy day and I was informed I could take my time because of the weather. Fortunately it was not long when I hit that sweet sound of a gold wedding band.

Brian and Jennifer were surprised as to where it was located when I found it. It was on the opposite side from where they had been looking. I was happy to return his wedding band and as always it is great to meet kind and generous people. Also – a big shout out to Hozak Farms for allowing me to come out and search for the ring – Thank you!

I received a phone call that Bill had lost his wedding ring while working in his backyard. I could not go out immediately but made arrangements to go and search for the ring. Upon my arrival Bill explained that he lost his ring while doing yard work and was cleaning grass out from the deck of the lawn mower when his ring flew off. The search area was pretty standard, rear portion of the yard bordering some high grass and weeds. I got started and on my third pass in the search area I struck gold! Bill was working on his back porch when I shouted for him to come down. Bill was very excited and happy to have his ring back. I was glad to be able to help and as always it was great to meet another kind and generous person and return his lost ring.

I received a text from Shannon asking me if I could come out and look for her husband Luke’s wedding ring. Shannon said her husband had contacted me a few months ago to look for his ring in the snow but they had found it before I was able to get there. This time he was working in the yard when it came off. We made arrangements and the next day I went out. Shannon showed me a relatively small area next to the house and I started to look. I cleared the first area and started to expand my search when I located the ring. It was a few feet outside the section they had been concentrating on and was under a small flower. Shannon was happy that I found the ring and was not very surprised as she was confident I would locate it from the onset. I was glad that I was able to make the recovery and as always – it a pleasure to meet kind and generous people like Shannon.

I received a text from Christina asking if I could look for her husband’s gold wedding band. They were not sure but thought it could have been lost in the yard a few days prior when they were doing some yard work. I drove out later that afternoon and met Christina and her husband Kurt. They showed me where he had been working in the yard and I got to work. I checked about half of the area when I hit a pretty good sound…only to find a nail. However, following the cardinal rule of always checking the hole again I got another good sound and this time I struck gold! I pulled out the ring and asked Christina to come outside. She could not believe that I found the ring and I gave it to her to return to her husband. Kurt was very happy to have his ring back. Not knowing for sure if it was in the yard it was definitly a nice surprise for all of us. As alwasy – it was great to meet kind and generous people and be able to return the lost ring!
