We shared a boulder-sized waterfront space at a beautiful lake on Wednesday, the water so cool and refreshing on our hot skin. I swam my share, dried off and redressed to leave your group to the rock in peace. As I dressed to depart the lake I left my bronze medallion necklace behind not realizing until today. It was a graduation gift from my mother and if you have found her I would love to be reunited with her once again, and maybe we could share the same space again at our dear lake! —Misses Her Necklace

Were there four of us, a girl and 3 guys, two of the dudes with scruffy beards? And was it at long lake? If so, I am really sorry but we didn’t notice any necklace 🙁 I hope you find it! Maybe it’s still there?
OL, very sorry you lost something of such personal meaning but maybe mention the lake in case someone does find it and happens to read the Coast.
…or goes out to find it before this person and hawk’s it at a pawn shop.
