Lost photographs from family album, Muncie/Anderson

Last Friday at 7:15 PM, I stepped away from Lilly's Diner on Main Street in Muncie to take a quick call. My tote with a small album of family photographs was inside, and I must have left it on the counter. When I returned, the tote was gone. The pictures span decades—moments from my grandmother’s wedding, school days in Anderson, road trips with my parents, and notes on the backs of some prints. Losing them feels like losing pieces of my history. They’re irreplaceable, and I’m hopeful someone honest found them and will bring them to the lost-and-found.

Lost shopping bags near Ball State, Muncie

I was walking out of the Village Park area near Ball State University in Muncie at about 6:30 PM on Tuesday when I realized my two blue shopping bags were gone. They’re large totes with white handles; one has a small tear at the bottom. Inside were groceries and a stack of photos from a weekend project. I retraced my steps through the mall and along McKinley Avenue, but I didn’t see them. I’m hoping whoever picked them up reads this and returns them—my evening groceries and a memory album are in those bags.

Found saxophones near Minnetrista, Muncie

I found these saxophones today around 6:20 pm, left behind near the Minnetrista Cultural Center in Muncie. They were inside a black padded gig bag with two horns sticking out, someone obviously had to rush away from them. One horn shows a little wear near the bell, the other has a sticker that reads 'Jazz Nights'—they look well-used but loved. I figured they belonged to a musician who got distracted, so I brought them to the area and hoped the owner would recognize them soon.

FOUND: Avians in Muncie/Anderson

I found a small cage with three canaries near the Bethel Avenue bus stop by Ball State University in Muncie, around 11:20 AM on Tuesday. The cage had chipped blue paint and a makeshift perch; the birds watched me with curious eyes as I approached. I had been walking from the student union toward Minnetrista Park when I spotted the bright yellow-and-green trio tucked beneath a bench. I moved them to the shaded edge of a cafe awning and stayed nearby a moment, hoping whoever they belong to would see this listing. They seemed startled but unharmed, and I felt relieved.

Lost heirloom brooches near Ball State

I lost my grandmother's brooches on Saturday around 2:15 PM in Muncie, likely somewhere between Muncie and Anderson. I was walking from the campus bookstore toward the quad along University Avenue when a breeze tugged at my coat and I must have dropped them. The two brooches are small silver pins, one shaped like a flower with a tiny turquoise stone, the other a round pin with a faint engraving. They mean more to me than jewelry; they connect me to stories my grandmother told over Sunday gravy and family dinners. I combed the sidewalks near the campus, checked the library stairs, and retraced to the court square, but they didn’t turn up. I’m hoping a careful passerby found them and kept them safe.

Lost Handheld and Console in Muncie

Last Friday at 6:50 PM, I realized my handheld console and a spare controller were missing from my backpack after I left the Minnetrista Cultural Center in Muncie. I had paused by the fountain near the entrance and must have left them on a bench before heading to my car. The handheld is black with a cracked screen, and the controller is purple with a few faded stickers, nothing flashy but they're mine. I'd be grateful to get them back; they're part of my weekly game nights with friends.
