Lost pocket watches in Northeast SD

Yesterday around 7:15 p.m., I realized my pocket watches were missing after stepping outside the Watertown Depot by the clock tower on Main Street. They are two small, vintage pieces -- one gold-trimmed and the other in a tarnished silver case -- kept inside a worn brown leather pouch. They belonged to my grandfather and carry decades of memories -- from Sunday fishing trips to birthdays long past. I would be grateful for their return to the depot or someone who recognizes them to reunite them with the family. If they turn up anywhere along Main Street or near the depot, I hope they are kept safe.

lost: Shirts

On a breezy Saturday around 2:15 p.m., I was helping unload for a community cleanup along Main Street in Watertown, Northeast SD, near the Codington County Courthouse. A gust knocked a bin and I realized my shirts were missing from the back of the cart. They’re plain cotton shirts in three colors, all worn for a family gathering this weekend, nothing loud or fancy. I’m frustrated and worried, but I’m holding onto hope that someone who finds them will bring them back through the site.

Found photographs in Northeast SD

I found these photographs yesterday evening, around 6:15 p.m., tucked behind the bench by the Brown County Courthouse in Aberdeen, Northeast SD. The prints show a family on a lakeside trip, a girl in a bright red scarf, and a vintage wedding portrait—warm, intimate moments pressed on glossy paper. They clearly mattered to someone, so I kept them safe here on the site. If these are yours, you’ll recognize the faces and the place where the photos were taken, and I hope this post helps bring them home soon.

Lost pins in Northeast SD

Hi, I’m Claire Jensen. I lost a small set of enamel pins from my denim jacket. They’re sentimental: one is my grandmother’s birthday pin, the other a tiny compass I picked up on a road trip. It happened around 7:15 a.m. today as I was leaving the Aberdeen Civic Center parking lot, near Main Street NE and 1st Ave. I checked the lot and sidewalks, retraced toward the river walk and Knox Park, but they’re gone. I feel anxious and hopeful someone found them and will turn them in here; these pins mean a lot to me and I’d love to see them back in my coat.

Lost hats near Aberdeen, Northeast SD

Hi, I’m Lila Peterson. I lost several hats while leaving the bus on Main Street in Aberdeen, Northeast SD, around 7:20 p.m. yesterday. The wind whipped the street and they blew off my tote bag in the crosswalk near the library on 2nd Ave NE. They were special keepsakes from different trips, including one from a family reunion, and I’m really hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe. I retraced steps along Main Street, the library district, and the little shops near City Hall, but I’m still hopeful. If anyone found them, I would be grateful for their return.

Found: metal desk organizers near Main Street Depot

I’m Mason Reed, posting from Northeast SD, South Dakota. I found a small set of metal desk organizers on a bench outside a shop in Northeast SD around 5:15 PM Friday, near Main Street Depot. They’re matte black with a brushed-silver edge and a little weathering from rain, nothing that can’t be wiped clean. I felt relieved for the owner, imagining someone turning the corner and seeing this post, hoping the pieces will come back home.
