I lost my Space Gray iPad Pro 11" yesterday around 3pm near the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum on the National Mall, along Independence Ave SW. It's in a black Belkin keyboard case with a red silicone bumper and there's a small crack along the bottom edge from a drop last week. The back has a white Wanderer sticker and a gold Apple Pencil sits in the sleeve. It holds a ton of notes and photos, and it feels sentimental to me; I really need it back since it's loaded with class materials and memories. If you found it, I'd be grateful to hear from you at [email protected].
I lost my black Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm near the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall in Washington DC. They're size 9, low-profile Nike runners with neon orange laces and a tiny blue ink dot on the inner heel of the right shoe. The left shoe has a faint scuff on the toe and a white-ish sole with a few gray speckles. They were worn-in but still comfortable, and it really bothers me—they were a gift from my sister and have sentimental value. If anyone found them, please reach out; I’d really appreciate getting them back.
I lost my keys yesterday around 5:15pm near the Dupont Circle metro entrance on Connecticut Ave NW. They’re a set of house and car keys on a sturdy blue nylon lanyard, with a small brass owl charm and a chipped red car key for my 2012 Honda Civic. The lanyard is a bit frayed at the end, and there’s a tiny green tag that says 'Lynch' on the split ring. I last remember them sitting on the bench outside The Daily Grind coffee shop by Dupont Circle. They’re not just keys—they unlock my apartment and my only car, and they have sentimental value, so I’d really appreciate getting them back.
I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED yesterday around 3pm near the Lincoln Memorial on 23rd Street NW. It's the model with neon red and blue Joy-Cons, tucked inside a charcoal-gray soft-shell case with a blue zipper. There's a small galaxy sticker on the back and a minor scratch on the bottom edge of the screen. It also has a screen protector on. It was a gift from my sister and it really means a lot to me; I used it every evening after work. If anyone found it, I’d be forever grateful to get it back.
I lost two rings in union market, a green ring with a gold band and a white ring with a gold band.
I found this ID badge this afternoon around 3:15 PM near the main entrance of Union Station on Massachusetts Ave NE. It’s a slim plastic card in a clear sleeve, attached to a bright cobalt-blue lanyard with a metal clip. The name on the card reads 'Priya Patel' and there’s a small DC flag icon next to the department. There’s a coffee stain on the sleeve and a handwritten note on the back that says 'Volunteer.' If this belongs to you, please describe the last place you used it or the photo to verify ownership—I’m really hoping to get it back to its owner.
I found a bright green budgie this afternoon around 3:15pm perched on the railing outside the National Museum of Natural History on the National Mall. It has a blue tail, an orange beak, and a small blue leg band marked 12A. The feathers are glossy, no visible injuries, and it seemed friendly enough to a gentle touch. It chirped happily when I called, and it hopped onto my finger after I offered a seed. It looks like someone’s beloved pet, not a wild bird, so I’d love to get it back to its owner—message me here to arrange a pickup near the museum entrance.
I found a light gray queen sheet set with navy piping on a bench outside the Dupont Circle Metro entrance this afternoon around 3:15pm. The set includes a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and two standard pillowcases; they're clean and neatly folded. The fabric feels soft and breathable, and the tag reads Haven Home. There's a small monogram AM embroidered in dark blue on one pillowcase corner, plus a tiny coffee stain on the flat sheet edge. If this belongs to you, drop me a note with the monogram and Haven Home tag so we can get it back to you.
I found a stunning hand-painted ceramic vase in a blue and white floral design while walking near the National Mall in Washington DC yesterday. It looks quite valuable and is in perfect condition, so I hope to find its owner. There’s no identifying mark on it, but it was resting on a bench. Please reach out if you think it's yours!
I found a pair of black wireless noise-canceling headphones at the Java Joe café in downtown Washington DC while I was working on my laptop on Monday afternoon. They were in perfect condition and came with a charging case. I think someone must have forgotten them because they were just sitting on the table after someone had left. If you can describe them to me, I’d be happy to return them.
