Lost: Holiday Decorations in Battle Creek, MI

I was decorating the living room for Christmas when a gust slammed the door and knocked the box loose. At 7:10 p.m. on Saturday I noticed the Holiday Decorations were gone from the chair rail by my West Main Street apartment, not far from the Kellogg Arena. The box held red and green ribbons, a string of old bulbs that still faintly glowed, and a battered snowman ornament my grandmother gave me. I'm anxious and a little embarrassed, because those decorations are tied to family memories and I want them back where they belong.
