Found Hand Tools in Salem, Oregon

While I was walking along Riverfront Park by the Willamette yesterday evening, I spotted a toolbox lid peeking out from a patch of grass and decided to pick it up. Inside there are wrenches, pliers, a utility knife, screwdrivers, and a tape measure—roughly a compact set, not new but in decent shape. I checked the tags and I think someone dropped them on the path around 9:05 pm near the gazebo, but I couldn't find any owner nearby. If these belong to you, I hope you’ll recognize your gear by the rust on the hammer and the red-handled pliers. I’ll keep them safe until you claim them.

LOST: Violins in Salem

I was leaving Riverfront Park near the pedestrian bridge by the Willamette River yesterday around 5:15 pm when my two violins were still in their brown hard case. I turned back to grab my music sheets and found nothing but a faint echo of a violin bow on the path. One violin has a lighter finish with a red chinrest; the other is darker with a small scratch on the scroll. These instruments mean a lot to me, and I am hopeful someone honest turned them in so I can reclaim them and keep playing.

Lost Leashes near Riverfront Park

I lost my leashes at 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday near Riverfront Park in Salem. I would just crossed the footpath by the park's fountain when they slipped from my grip. There are two leashes: one blue with a tiny bone pattern and a plain black one, both a bit frayed at the ends. I keep replaying the moment in my head, worried about my dog and hoping someone nearby picked them up for safekeeping.

LOST: Shopping Bags in Salem, OR

Hey, I’m Grace Park. I left three shopping bags on the Capitol Mall steps by the Oregon State Capitol around 6:40 p.m. yesterday after a downtown shopping trip. One bag held groceries, another a small gift from a Court Street shop, and the third carried a framed print I was taking home. I turned away to check my phone for a moment, and when I looked back the wind had whipped them away. I’m hopeful someone picked them up, and I’d love to get them back right where they belong in downtown Salem.
