Lost 'Wild and Domestic' in old WV

I lost 'Wild and Domestic' last Sunday around 6:20 p.m. near Capitol Market in Charleston, in the old part of town. It's a dog-eared paperback with a green cover, spine creased, and a yellow highlighter mark on page 132. I was at a little cafe by the mural of a thunderbird when I realized it wasn’t in my tote anymore. The book was a gift from my grandmother, and rereading it brings her memory back to me. If you spot it, please post a note on the site—I’m holding out hope it will turn up and come home.

Lost gym clothes near Haddad Riverfront Park, Charleston

Hi, I'm Maya Reed. I was at Haddad Riverfront Park in Charleston around 6:40 PM Friday, cooling down after a workout at the community gym. I must have left my gym clothes somewhere along the riverbank near the stairway by the fountain—the gray hoodie with a pink zipper, black shorts, and a white towel poking out of a blue drawstring bag. I feel anxious and bummed, because those clothes are my go-to for daily workouts and it’s hard to improvise without them. If someone picked them up and left them somewhere safe near the benches by the river, I’d be grateful beyond words.

Lost devices near Capitol Market, downtown Charleston, WV.

On Friday around 4:15 PM I realized my devices were missing near Capitol Market in downtown Charleston. I’d been juggling a tote bag as I walked from the farmers market toward the parking deck when a gust knocked the bag from my shoulder. My silver MacBook Air, a black iPhone with a cracked corner, and a white charger were lost in the crowd. I’m a grad student in West Virginia who relies on these tools to finish papers and stay in touch with family. The day had been hectic enough, and now I feel unsettled, hoping someone honest picked them up and will return them through the site.

FOUND train near Charleston Amtrak Station, West Virginia (old)

I found a small toy train tucked under a bench outside the Charleston Amtrak Station around 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday, May 4, while I was waiting for a friend. It’s a bright red locomotive with black wheels and a stubborn sticker on the tender. No one claimed it, so I left it with the information desk and told staff to keep an eye out. The moment felt like a tiny mystery in a busy corridor, and I’m hoping the owner stumbles upon this post soon so they know their little locomotive didn’t disappear into the crowd.

Lost Breeds near Capitol Market

I lost my Breeds last Saturday at about 8:00 PM outside Capitol Market in Charleston, in the old part of town. The folder labeled 'Breeds' with notes on dog breeds and training was in my tote; it's not fancy, but it holds weeks of work. I remember chatting with a vendor about a brindle photo and turning back to grab my coat, only to find the bag lighter with the folder gone. The brick street lamplight felt heavy that night, and I worried about someone misplacing it as much as I did. If you found it, please help me get it back to its owner.

Lost pins near High Street, Morgantown

Hi, I am Ava Bennett. I misplaced a few delicate pins last Tuesday around 6:30 p.m. downtown Morgantown, near High Street by the Morgantown Civic Center. They are vintage family pins, one silver with a small green enamel leaf and another tiny pin with a compass design, pinned to my cardigan that day. I retraced the sidewalk along High Street toward the Monongahela Riverfront, but they are nowhere to be found. They are special to me, and I hope someone picked them up and held onto them until I could get back to collect them.
