A picture of (at least) a thousand words, Mona Lisa, is that pic of you and that young 81 year old chick, very cool :icon_queen: :icon_queen:
I'm not a doubter of dowsing, but if that ability is what has kept that Lady looking so healthy, then I'm all for it.
What a fantastic story about your treasure find; the balance, still to unfold :thumbsup:
Banner Worthy, t'be sure

Mona congrats on such a fantastic find. The question is why would you not give up when you did? You did find what you were looking for hey :thumbsup:
That old lady seems like a treasure chest for sure, at least as you say you will have places for a long time to comefor treasure hunting.

Show us the pics when you get them of the giving of the ring over to her son, it will finish this story of nicely.

God bless

Re: Thar's gold in that thar hole! Mona's first class ring.

Thanks everybody for the replies of congratulations and sweet responses. :)

The lovely foundation and dowsing woman, I'll call her LB, emailed me saying how overwhelmed her nephew was when he got his high school ring back. Unfortunately, there are no pictures for me to share with you. It was a very touching event for all of them.

LB and I are going to go out cellarhole hunting soon, so hopefully I'll have another story for you. She is an amazing and spry 81 years young and raring to go! :icon_queen:
