Happy Mother's Day!
My mother has told the story of losing her grandfather's engagement ring in the bushes outside the house for years. More than once I have brought the metal detector down to look for it only to be stymied by handfuls of nails..
Since I was coming down for mother's day, she asked me to look again. So, I brought the detector. I detected last night until dark and found a handful of nails and mosquitoes galore. On the up side, there was an old very rusty Buffalo Bill cap gun..But no ring. This morning I came back by to have breakfast, and since she was still cooking, I stood at the window staring off into space and waiting for breakfast. And there, out the window, I thought I saw the ring. I pointed out the window and under the bush to my fiance and she couldn't see it. I told her to stay right there and point and out I went and damned if I didn't see the thing. Four years under the bushes...So, happy mother's day, mom.
