Lost travel adapters in downtown Modesto

I was rushing to pack for an early trip when I realized my travel adapters were missing. I had them in a small gray pouch beside my blue jacket at Graceada Park around 6:15 p.m. last Friday, as the sun sank behind the elm trees. The spot I last sat was a wooden bench near the playground, with the fountain just a few steps away. Losing them means I can’t charge my devices on the road, which is rough when I’m juggling flights and trains. If someone happened to tuck them somewhere safe near Graceada Park, I’d be endlessly grateful.

Lost: Paintings near Gallo Center

Hi, I lost a set of four paintings around 3:45 pm last Sunday near the Gallo Center for the Arts in Modesto. I’d just left a downtown exhibit and wandered toward 11th Street when I realized they were missing. The frames are black and simple, about 18x24 inches each, and the paintings depict quiet landscapes in warm browns and greens. They were painted by my late aunt and mean a great deal to me; I carried them for comfort during a stressful move. I retraced my steps along I Street and nearby storefronts, hoping to spot a familiar frame, but I didn’t. If found, please return them to the Gallo Center or nearby staff.

Found two toasters near Graceada Park, Modesto

Yesterday afternoon around 4:30, I found two toasters sitting on a bench outside Graceada Park, near the 7th Street entrance in Modesto. They were dusty and mismatched—one chrome with a dented knob, the other white with a red lever—clearly not items you expect to find just lying around. It felt odd, like a quiet reminder that someone’s morning routine got interrupted, maybe after a move or a garage sale. I’m posting this here in case they belong to someone who’s been searching for them. If it’s yours, please reach out via the site so we can arrange a proper handoff.

Black Nike hoodie with white swoosh, found near Target

I found a black Nike hoodie this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Target on McHenry Avenue in Modesto. It's a men's size L, fleece-lined, in pretty good shape with a crisp white Nike swoosh on the chest. There’s a small green thread loop near the zipper and a tiny scratch on the left sleeve—easy to spot if you know it. It looked like someone ducked in for a quick shop and left it behind, so I’m hoping to help the owner get it back. If this is yours, I’m happy to meet near the Target entrance to hand it over.

Orange zine with blue moon doodle

I lost my orange 6x9 inch zine titled 'Modesto Nights' yesterday around 3pm outside the Modesto Library on I Street. It’s a small, hand-stitched printed matter with a bright orange cover and a blue moon doodle on the front. The pages inside are cream-colored and slightly crinkled from rain, and the first page bears a handwritten inscription: 'To Lena, keep exploring.' The zine is basically a personal collection of poems and sketches; it feels sentimental to me, like a little map of my last year here. If someone found it near the library or the bike racks by the entrance, I’d be grateful to get it back.
