    The Word Is Spreading

    When you have a new toy, everyone wants to play. I got a request to search a yard of a family that experienced a "Smash & Grab" last year. It seems that when the thiefs were running away they dropped a jewelry box and spilled all the contents in the front yard. The owner found all but one gold "Mother's Ring". I set the ATP on Pro/Zero. Five minutes into the hunt I got strong 59/60 at 2 inches. Flipped up the grass and there it was.
    Easy dig, happy owner.
