Been a great month for playing in the wood chips. A few weeks ago I found a tennis bracelet 10K with 70 diamonds in it. Had it appraised and it came out to be 1 1/2 carats total weight with a value of $1795.00. Fast forward to Thursday night. Got my work done at my job but it was getting dusk so I opted for a school a couple of minutes from the place of my employment. Decided to work the wood chips to see if I could liberate some small change. Didn't find much and was on my way to my car when I got one last signal. A little nudge with my foot and I thought I saw something golden. Yes a ring for sure but certainly nothing of value. Placed in my pocket and went back to work. A little more labor done and I was back in my office. Lets see the ring now. Looked through a magnifier and saw it said 14K. Must say G.F. or H.G.E. or something but didn't see that. Well it looks like gold but what about the stone. To big to be a diamond but will take to a jeweler to have it tested.

Friday I went to the mall to see. They tested and it is the real McCoy. Inside the band it says the diamond is 65 points in weight. Biggest diamond ring found to date. Will get it appraised sometime. Yes I am a real happy camper . Thanks for looking.

Way to go! You are the diamond magnet! Makes me wonder why the heck I stayed home all day today. Oh yeah, working on the riding mower, it decided to smash the blades together. Got a new drive belt & it they still hit...gonna have to get the lower belt too, it is obviously not gripping tightly enough. Oh yeah, terrific finds!
