Default First diamonds of the year
I just got back from a camping trip today. We had our 5th wheel parked and Paulette, my wife, said "why not detect the sites". About 30 minutes later I found this gold ring. It measured 16 - 18 on the VDI. Found a little clad and a rabies tag but the ring made the day. It fits Paulette just find. Rob

I'm sure your wife was more than thrilled to hold it for safe keeping, huh?

I'm sure she's glad she asked you to detect that site.
