Lost & found seasonal items in El Paso

Lost holiday decorations near San Jacinto Plaza, El Paso.

Saturday around 4:30 p.m., I was bringing in a big box of holiday decorations and must have left it on the back seat of my car by San Jacinto Plaza after a shopping trip. I returned a few minutes later to find the box gone. It contains garlands, a string of multicolored lights, some vintage ornaments, and a Santa centerpiece—things that belonged to my mom and mean a lot to our family traditions. I retraced my steps around the plaza and the surrounding restaurants, but nothing turned up. If you found a cardboard box with shiny red tape near the Plaza Theatre or the little farmers market, please help me recover them. They’re irreplaceable to us.
