LOST HEAVY GOLD HEIRLOOM RING IN THE SURF AT VENICE BEACH FOUND & RETURNED

  • from Santa Monica (California, United States)

I got a text on Saturday night from Greg about a heavy gold ring that he lost in the surf earlier that day at Venice Beach. We arranged to meet at Venice Beach at 10am the next day , so I could have time to search for the ring during low tide. When I arrived that morning the parking was already starting fill up. I met up with Greg and we walked out together so he could introduce me to his family and showed me location of the loss. He and his wife tried to explain the location in relationship to the life guard tower and other features on the beach. I was a little nervous, when I saw the area seem to be about 50 yards long , but we narrowed it down a little and I began my grid search working my way down the slope  and into the ocean . It was very quite, with very few signals, but after about a  half an hour just below calf deep, I got a soft but repeatable signal, dug down about a foot, two scoops and there was  Greg’s ring staring up at me. There were cheers, and high fives . Greg was ecstatic to have his grandfather’s   ring  back on his finger. They even have the same initials which was on the ring. I felt blessed  to be able to help such a nice family. It made a long drive home much more pleasant.
