Lost & found kitchenware in Western Slope

Lost appliances in Western Slope, Colorado.

At around 7:25 PM on Monday, I realized I’d misplaced several kitchen appliances after unloading groceries in Grand Junction. The microwave, a blender, and a compact coffee maker were in a tote on the back seat, but they disappeared as I stepped into the Mesa Mall entrance. I retraced my steps around the lot and checked near the sporting goods store, but nothing turned up. The fading light and the cool air only added to my worry as I imagined a neighbor picking them up for a yard sale. If someone found them, I’d be grateful if they turned them in at the Mesa Mall security desk or left them with customer service so I could collect them.
