Bracelet Lost Through the Cracks and Found Beneath the Dock Port Dalhousie
It’s amazing how quickly a special moment can turn stressful — and how quickly a little determination can turn it back around.
A few days ago, I got called to help with a tricky recovery at the marina. A young woman had been walking along the dock when she tripped and fell. Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt — but in the process, her very special bracelet came off her wrist and fell straight through the cracks of the dock, disappearing into the water below.
The bracelet wasn’t just jewelry ,it had sentimental value and a recent gift that couldn’t be replaced .
The conditions weren’t exactly ideal. Poor visibility, tight spaces under the dock, and plenty of weeds made the search feel nearly impossible. But with my metal detector and a lot of patience, I got to work.
After carefully scanning the area and navigating the tangle of weeds and debris, I finally got a good signal. A little digging, a lot of feeling around and there it was. Her bracelet, still intact and ready to be reunited with its owner.
The relief and gratitude on her face made every second worth it.
It’s a reminder that even in tough conditions, with the right tools and a little persistence, some things really can be found again.
