Five Minutes of Fame

The story appeared on the front page of the Eagle Tribune this morning, and after that I was contacted by other news organizations, so I had quite a day today. I'm not sure how long any of these links will be valid, but today they are, so what the heck:

Eagle Tribune (made the front page)
WBZTV (Channel Four) Video Segment
WBZTV Report
WBZ radio report
Channel Five Report
Channel Seven Video and Report

I heard from someone wanting to buy the ring I found - on the cheap. I actually felt sorry for him because he got this whole thing so wrong. I also heard from someone who thought the wedding band I found, in my backyard, with my name and my husband's name engraved on it, might be hers. I'm sure it was a legitimate mistake - she didn't read the story closely enough and the picture must have resembled her own lost ring - but I found it funny nonetheless. I also have heard from a surprising number of metal detector hobbyists out there. Thanks for all the tips and advice on my search. I really appreciate it!

Have not yet heard from the ring owner yet, so keep the word out!
