Yesterday around 3pm I lost my gray SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD 1TB. It's a small rectangular drive, about the size of a credit card thick, with a gray metal body and a lime-green silicone sleeve. It's a digital media drive I use for editing video projects, and it has a white 'Star' sticker near the USB-C port—easy to spot if you know where to look. I think it was left on a table outside the Fort Dodge Public Library on 1st Ave North after I wrapped up a quick video edit session. This drive has sentimental value for me because it holds family memories from last summer, and I really need it back. If anyone finds it, email me at [email protected].
I lost my blue parakeet Pico yesterday around 3:15pm. We were outside the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave near the main entrance when a gust kicked the door and Pico slipped from his cage on the balcony. Pico is about 6 inches from beak to tail, cobalt blue with a pale yellow chest, and there’s a tiny white patch on his left wing. He also wears a blue leg band with the number 42. This bird means a lot to me—Pico was a gift from my grandmother, and I’m really worried about him being out in the town. If anyone spots him nearby, please let me know or bring him back to the library steps; I’d be forever grateful.
I lost my black Fossil watch yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. It’s a Fossil chronograph with a black stainless steel band and a silver dial. There's a tiny scratch on the bezel near the 2 o'clock mark, and the clasp has a small star engraving I added years ago. This watch was a gift from my grandfather and it feels like part of him; I really need it back. If you found it, email me at [email protected].
I lost my charcoal gray knit scarf yesterday around 3pm in the parking lot behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. It's a Nordic Thread scarf, about 60 inches long, with a small brown leather patch near one end and a tiny maple-leaf embroidery on the inside corner. It's a bit pillled from daily wear but otherwise in good condition. It means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister and it's one of the few keepsakes I have from our time together. If you found it, please message me here—I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my blue plush dragon, Ember, yesterday around 3pm near the Walgreens on 5th Avenue South in Fort Dodge. It's about 12 inches tall, soft blue fur with a white belly, rainbow wings, and a tiny silver star stitched on its chest. There's a small tear at the wing seam and some light pilling from lots of hugs. It was a gift from my grandma, so it means a lot to me—I'd really love to have Ember back if anyone found it.
I found a small red metal tin of coins this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Fort Dodge Public Library, near the bike racks at the 2nd Ave S entrance. The tin is about 3x2 inches with a dented lid and a faded Fort Dodge Coin Club sticker on top. Inside are roughly 35 coins from the 1940s–1960s, mostly wheat pennies and silver dimes, plus a few foreign coins; they’re in decent condition with natural patina. There’s a handwritten card tucked under the coins that says 'Alex – Fort Dodge'. It looks like a personal collection and I’d really like to see it back with its owner.
I found a silver Seiko watch this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. The case is brushed stainless steel with a black leather band, about 42mm, and there’s a tiny nick on the bezel near 3 o’clock. The back has initials 'J.R.' engraved and the face is clean with no cracks. It's in decent condition overall, and it feels like it was recently worn. If you recognize it, drop me a note with any extra identifying details to prove it’s yours — I’d love to get it back to you.
I found a set of keys this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. There are about 5 keys on a black metal ring, plus a blue nylon lanyard with a white fox logo and a small red enamel keychain shaped like a guitar pick with the initials JL. One of the keys has a Ford emblem, and there’s a noticeable dent on the edge of the keyring itself. I figured someone would want them back, so here they are. If the owner sees this, feel free to reach out here and we can figure out the best way to return them.
I found a pair of Bluetooth wireless earbuds this afternoon around 3:15 pm outside the Fort Dodge Public Library on 5th Ave South. They’re black with a gray charging case, and there’s a small scratch on the lid. Inside the case there’s a tiny sticker with the initials 'SW' and a partial serial number, and one silicone ear tip has a minor tear. They look gently used but in decent condition. If these belong to you, I’d love to get them back; we can meet near the library parking lot or by the storefront next to the library to return them.
I found a pair of black plastic-frame glasses this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot by the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. They're Ray-Ban-style, with oval lenses, and there's a tiny scratch on the left lens plus 'J.P.' engraved on the inside of the right arm. Overall the glasses are in good condition, just a bit of everyday wear. If these belong to you, send me a message here and I can leave them at the library desk for pickup.
