Renewed faith in mankind, my lost watch was returned....

[Brenda2000]

We went on a camping trip to the midwest about three weeks ago, and lost my watch at a campsite we stayed at for two nights.
It was a nice watch, a Bulova with a diamond, DH had bought me about 15 years ago. I had almost lost it several times before, because the latch was tricky, and had fallen off my wrist many times.
Anyway, I lost it at the campsite. i wasn't sure if I had left it in the bathhouse, or if it had fallen off somewhere. We left notes on the bathhouse, and told the camp host about it.
Low and behold, yesterday in the mail, was my watch!
A note was included from two men who worked for the parks dept, who we had talked with during our stay.
The note said they enjoyed talking with us, and after we left, two honest teenage boys camped at the same site, found the watch, and turned it into the camp host.
I'm going to send a thank you card, and see if they can give me the address of the boys, so I can send them a small monetary award.
I thought the watch was gone for good....I even ordered myself a new one...(guess I could return that one.....nahhh....It was about time for a new watch anyway! lol)
Boy, that watch did some traveling!

Awww now that watch has extra special memories. Maybe you could take it to the jeweler and get a diffferent latch?
