Was able to get out for a short hunt this passed Saturday at a park in a local town. I wanted to try it out due to its history hoping for some potentially great finds. But so far that has not come to pass due to the frozen ground and limited search areas available.
To the point, on this day while hunting in a wooded section of the park I saw what I thought was just some old bag thrown in the brush. I first continued on my hunt but upon my return something told me to go check it out.
When I pulled it out of the low brush I realized that it was a purse and some of the items began to fall out. I picked up all the items and noticed another bag a few feet away as well as a eyeglass case. I put all the items into the larger bag and headed out of the wooded area.
As I examined the items I realized that the purse, wallet and eyeglasses were all Michael Kors big bucks as I understand it from the women of my household. Inside included a drivers license, credit cards, work certification cards, a visa gift card, and assorted personal items.
I brought the items home and upon inspecting the paperwork inside we found that she was a nurses aid that worked in a nursing home by the park. As luck would have it that nursing home is affiliated with the hospital my wife works in.
So today after work my wife and I went down to the nursing home and was lucky enough to find the young lady that lost the purse. She thanked us very much for bringing it to her and she told us that it was stolen from her car one night 4 months ago at the home and that they had broken her car window to get it. The look on her face was one of shock.
When my wife and I left I felt a great satisfaction in what we had done. Although the things were not in all that great of shape I think she appreciated getting her things back, and with a bit of TLC she can get them back to looking new again. Thanks for letting me ramble a bit,
