Default Went Looking for Platinum but found gold and silver instead.

I went looking for a lost platinum band tonight, down at Horseshoe Bay. The husband was in the doghouse and I had told him I would do what I could to locate the precious band for him.
A storm front past through last night so things were pretty stirred up and it was a bit of a washing machine hunt. Rogue waves kept crashing in out of no where every couple of minutes so I had to keep my head up. As it was I got bowled over twice.
I didn't find the platinum ring tonight but I'll be back tomorrow for another go at it. I did manage a .925 surfer ring and a 14k with small diamonds ring, plus some clad. A good hunt for an hour and a half, all things considered.

Cheers Mates,

BDA

I always love seeing what other vacationers have lost in the sea. My hubby lost his wedding ring on our honeymoon!

Well even though you didn't find his ring you did pretty nice.
Good luck in finding it when you get back there.
