Found student ID near Ringling Museum, Sarasota

Hi, I'm Casey Morgan. This afternoon, around 4:15 p.m., I was walking the Ringling Museum campus in Sarasota-Bradenton when I spotted a student ID on the sidewalk by the entrance. The card clearly shows the name Alex Kim and a university logo. I picked it up and handed it to the museum’s information desk, hoping the owner would see this post. I know how stressful it is to misplace something important, so I wanted to share what I found and where I saw it.

Lost quilts near the Ringling Museum, Sarasota

I lost my quilts on Friday around 6:15 p.m. after I stopped by the Ringling Museum of Art courtyard to adjust a map. I laid both quilts on a portable rack beside a wooden bench while I checked a ticket, and when I stood up, they were gone. They include a pastel-pink and cream quilt with a leaf pattern and a blue-gray quilt with a geometric border. I felt a sinking fear in my chest as the sun dipped behind the palms along the bayfront. These quilts were handmade by my grandmother and carry years of memory. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to retrieve them through the site so we can be reunited.

Lost medication in Sarasota-Bradenton

9:10 a.m. this morning, I realized my medication was missing from my bag as I walked out of the Selby Public Library in Sarasota. I retraced my steps through Main Street toward St. Armands Circle, hoping a passerby or store staff had picked it up. I’m anxious about going a day without essential meds and juggling work, appointments, and daily routines. If you saw anything unusual around the library doors or the nearby benches, please keep an eye out for this prescription.

Found keyboards behind a cafe on Main Street, Downtown Sarasota

I was walking along Main Street in downtown Sarasota, around 3:40 PM on Tuesday, when I spotted two keyboards sitting on a bench outside a cafe. They look lightly used, one with a matte black shell and another with a small chip near the corner. I figured they belonged to a musician or student nearby and brought them to this post to help reunite them with their owner. It’s a strange feeling to hold someone’s gear, but I’d rather see it back with its rightful owner than leave it out here by Bayfront Park.

Found coins near downtown Sarasota.

I was walking along Main Street in downtown Sarasota at about 5:15 p.m., near the Bayfront Park bench, when a small pile of coins spilled onto the pavement. There were pennies, a couple of quarters, and a couple of foreign coins that looked worn from a busy day. It felt like a small moment of someone else’s routine left behind, and I paused, then gathered the coins and left them on the bench where someone might realize they’d been found. If these coins belong to you, I hope the right person notices this listing and they’re reunited soon.

Lost adapters near The Ringling Museum

I was packing up after a quick shoot at The Ringling Museum around 5:30 p.m. last Tuesday when a pouch with my adapters slipped into my bag and must have fallen out somewhere along the walk back to the parking garage. The set includes a USB-C to HDMI, a PD charger, and a compact 4-port hub—the kind I rely on when I am juggling laptop, tablet, and camera battery packs. I retraced from the museum to the fountain by Main Street and toward the bus stop, but I did not see them. I miss them; they are ordinary, but they keep my day moving, and I would be grateful to have them back.
