Amid the destruction from Hurricane Milton in Florida, a couple found something special. Laura and Basil Yorio from Palm Bay had to leave their home before the hurricane hit on Wednesday, Oct. 9, as a Category 3 storm. When they returned, Laura was surprised to find Basil’s wedding ring in their yard. He had lost it nine years earlier during a construction project.

“It was just sitting there, a little buried in the dirt,” Laura said, thinking at first it was a key ring

The jewelry Laura found sticking out of the ground turned out to be Basil’s missing wedding ring, which had “disappeared” during a construction project nine years ago. Despite years of lawn care and searching, the ring never showed up—until now.

Laura shared a photo of the silver ring with WOFL, showing how it was hidden in the grass. “We’ve been over this yard a thousand times in the last nine years,” she said. “We even have a landscaper who comes every week. Still, nothing.”

Laura believes the hurricane caused the ring to finally surface. She added, “We know a lot of people are dealing with really tough things right now, so I feel a little guilty being happy, but it was something good that came out of all this.”

How to Help the Victims of Hurricane Milton

Hurricane Milton hit near Siesta Key on Wednesday, causing major damage. As of Friday, at least 16 people have died, according to CNN and NBC News. Five of those deaths happened because of a tornado in St. Lucie County. In total, 19 tornadoes hit the state as the hurricane moved inland, according to Gov. Ron DeSantis.

About 1.5 million people in Florida still don’t have power as of Saturday, Oct. 12, according to PowerOutage.us.

Since the hurricane, hundreds of people have been rescued, including 135 from a senior living home in Tampa, 500 from an apartment building in Clearwater, and more from a Holiday Inn in Plant City.

This comes after Hurricane Helene, which struck the Big Bend region on Sept. 26, killing over 200 people.

Jack Smith Is Finished!He’s about to face some serious heat

President Trump continues to remain defiant and Iashing out at Special Counsel Jack Smith, the DOJ, and President Joe Biden over the legal battIes he is currently fig hting, maintaining that the cases and investigations are politically motivated and meant to hurt him, not effect justice in America.

Particularly, he did so on Truth Social after the Supreme Court rejected a request from Special CounseI Jack Smith to immediately hear a claim from President Trump that he is protected from prosecution in the election case by presidential immunity.

Declaring something of a victory and commenting on what he sees as the ridicuIousness of the case, Trump wrote, “The Supreme Court has unanimously rejected Deranged Jack Smith’s “SUPER SPEEDY” lawsuit against me. This sick puppies team of Lowlifes and Radical Left Thugs could have brought this “case” 3 years ago, and it would be long over by now. No, they waited until right in the middle of my very successful campaign for President.”
