I found a small brass compass this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind The Crossings Premium Outlets on Route 611 in the Poconos. It's roughly 1.5 inches across, with a warm patina and a cracked glass. On the back, there's a delicate engraving of a mountain range and the date 'Mt Pocono 1943' that really stands out. It also has a faded green leather cord attached, and a couple of nicks on the rim from years of use. It felt sentimental as soon as I picked it up, and I’d love to return it to its owner.
