Took a stroll down the lane today from 32nd St down to 14th St and back. Worked the lane from 3:20pm to 6:45pm.
Was on the northbound return leg when I was approached by a guy at 26th St that said his wife had taken her diamond ring off and he had taken his wedding ring and diamond pinky ring off while they applied suntan lotion. Yup. They placed them on their towel and forgot them. They grabbed everything to head off for dinner, took about 45 steps and realized "Holy Schnikees the Rings!"
He spotted me in the water and asked if I could please help. I went up and handed him my scoop. I told him to draw me a box around where he thinks they were sitting when they started to leave. The box was around 15 ft x 20 ft. I searched it like crazy and as usual, nothing. I found all 3 rings about 10 feet outside his grid box.
Got lots of hugs, handshakes and a big pat on the back. Made my day.
Happy Hunting!
