So this was pasture.

It's a swaltering California day,

and Bonnie Callwell is climbing the steep hill of the old family farm.

This little piece right here was past through.

At the very, very top is a tall farmhouse, Bonnie's old home.

It was right here, 48 years ago, that Bonnie told her fiance that their engagement was over.

He wasn't very happy about that.

He was not calm about it.

She was still a teenager barely out of high school and he was an older Vietnam vet named Joe.

It had been exciting at first, but now she was ending things between them.

It was just, you know, I want to marry you, you know, we are perfect together and I don't want you to do this.

I think he kind of felt like the door was closing and there was no bargaining to get it open again.

I just said I just don't want to marry you anymore.

She gave him back her diamond engagement ring.

He took it, then stepped off her porch and seemed to throw it.

And that's where we thought he threw it.

Her family and friends spent days looking for that ring.

Finally, they realized, it was all a fake.

He hadn't thrown the ring at all. Still, Bonnie figured, that was the end of it. But she was wrong.

Around the side of the house, there's a line of windows at eye level.
