Lost memory cards in Northern WI

On Saturday night around 9:30 p.m., I realized my memory cards were missing after I left a coffee shop on Broadway Street in downtown Superior. They’re a small hard-shell case containing several SD cards; some hold photos from a recent hiking trip in Nicolet National Forest. I spent hours retracing my steps along the lakefront, hoping someone honest picked them up. If you found them, please keep them safe; I’ll be back on the canal trail and the lakefront around sunrise to search again.

lost: Passports in Northern Wisconsin

Lost my passports on Tuesday around 7:15 p.m. while walking the harbor near the Bayfield Lighthouse in Northern WI. They were in a burgundy leather cover tucked inside a small zippered pouch, and I’d last seen them on a bench by the harbor wall. I’m anxious about travel plans and possible delays, especially with an upcoming flight. If found, I’ll be at the Bayfield Lighthouse harbor area again tomorrow morning, hoping someone picked them up and handed them in.

FOUND: Postcards found in Northern WI

I was strolling along the Chequamegon Bay waterfront in Ashland, Wisconsin at 6:45 PM on Tuesday when I spotted a stack of postcards tucked under a bench near the Ashland Public Library. The backs carry a Wisconsin postmark and the photos show old lighthouses and pine forests, their corners worn from years of handling. It felt like a small time capsule. I picked them up to keep them safe and hope to reunite them with the owner. If these belong to you, they were found on the steps outside the Ashland Public Library, along the riverfront path, around 6:45 PM on Tuesday.

Lost USB drives near Bayfield Co-op, Bayfield, WI

I was packing up after a sunset walk at the Bayfield Marina around 7:15 PM on Friday when my USB drives slipped from my navy backpack. They’re in a small clear case, one side labeled 'Work' and the other 'Personal' with a red sticker. The drives hold client files and travel photos from this summer, and I’m anxious about losing that data. If you found them, please drop them at the Bayfield Co-op or the public library desk; I’ll head there as soon as I can. Thank you for keeping them safe.

Hand-painted ceramic vase, teal glaze, signed, lost near Main St

I lost my hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 4:30pm. It's about 8 inches tall with a white base and teal glaze, speckled with tiny gold flecks, and it's signed 'L. Finn' on the bottom. I left it on a shelf above the pottery wheel at the Northern Woods Art Studio on Main Street in Rhinelander, and I must have walked out with wet hands—it slid off the shelf and into a bin by the door. It has sentimental value; this vase was a gift from my grandmother. There’s a small hairline crack along the rim that makes me worry it’s more fragile than it looks. If anyone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.

Neon green Nike running shorts

I found a pair of neon green Nike running shorts this afternoon around 2pm behind the Walmart on Tower Ave in Superior. They’re size M, moisture-wicking fabric with a black drawstring and a small zip pocket on the back. The left leg has a tiny blue hem stitch and there’s a faint coffee stain on the waistband from a gym visit. They look barely worn, like someone might have forgotten them in the parking lot. If these belong to you, send me a message here and we can figure out a pickup time.
