Early on Monday morning, Marim texted me inquiring about my services to recover her lost wedding set. The day before, she had taken off her three rings and placed them on a blanket while applying sunblock. Later that day, thunderstorms moved in, and in the rush to leave, she forgot about the rings. She shook out the blanket, and they likely fell into the sand. It wasn’t until she arrived home that she realized what had happened. She and a friend drove back to the beach that evening, searching with flashlights, but with no luck.
When Marim contacted me, I knew I had to act quickly, as the area of the beach they were lost on was popular with other detectorists. The only problem was that she wasn’t sure exactly what beach they had been at, as her friend had driven and she didn’t visit often. After several texts and phone calls with her friend, we agreed to meet at a nearby grocery store. From there, I followed her and her friend to the beach.
Luckily, it was a relatively quiet, wide stretch of sand, and we were the only ones there on that beautiful morning. Marim was confident we were in the right spot because she could see drag marks in the sand, and she used an app to track her family’s location, which returned us to the exact spot. After only a few minutes of searching, all three rings were safely in my scoop and back on her finger.
Marim was completely relieved. Fortunately, the beach was a private beach, with limited locations for the general public, or there might have been a good chance that someone else would have found the rings before we got there.
