I figured I'd hit the school yard today. Didn't have much time since my son came home to visit. He was still sleeping, what's new.

I found the regular stuff, but with the new program I been tinkering with on my DFX I was killing the nickles. One hole was a spill with four nickels and one dime. Anyway. This little kid walks up and starts talking to me. I couldn't hear him but stopped. Took my headphones off and said.
"What's up?"
"What you looking for?"
"The treasure of the black pearl," I said.
It ain't here, he said. "They keep it locked up in Hollywood?" I nodded.
"Oh, is that right. Well, I'm trying to find something other than junk like this." I reach in my pouch and pull out my can slaw. "But I'm not giving up."

I start swinging again and in two steps my headphone start screaming at me. Solid 13 VDI on the DFX with a long line at 3.5". I dig and out comes the men's white gold wedding band.
"See I said, "Jack Black lost his ring." I hand it to him. His eyes are like a mile wide open.
"Wow," he said. "Keep going." I put the ring back in my pouch and start swinging again, three more steps and another signal. I dig it. I pull up the silver hoonkin' ring with turquois chips, wrapped in angora by some young girl in love.
I hand it to the kid.
"That's red beard the pirate's chin hair wrapped around there." He drops it. A few minutes later and the kid is gone. Must have went home to tell about the pirate treasure. I was looking for him to come back, 'cause after that I didn't find squat!

Inside the wedding band it says 14K lohengrin. Any info. I did look it up. Found this. The ring isn't the same but it does give some info about lohengrin.
