Lost shirts near Imperial Valley Mall, El Centro.

On Wednesday around 5:50 p.m., I realized my shirts were missing from the tote I left in the car while I shopped at the Imperial Valley Mall in El Centro. I retraced my steps from the food court to the sporting goods store, but I never found them. They’re just plain tees, but they’ve got a faded logo from a band and a few loose threads that make them feel like part of me. Losing them felt like misplacing a small piece of home, and I’m hoping someone picked them up and dropped them here for safe keeping.

Found rabbits near Imperial County Fairgrounds

I was walking behind the Imperial County Fairgrounds in El Centro around 4:30 p.m. on Sunday when I found two rabbits wandering near a chain-link fence by the loading dock. They were calm, a little dusty from the day in the sun, and one wore a blue collar with no tag. I checked for chips and looked for owners, but I could tell they were someone’s pets, perhaps frightened. I brought them to a safe spot and kept them warm with a blanket until I could post this. Hoping to reunite them with their family.

Lost Saxophones near Imperial Valley Mall, El Centro

At about 7:30 p.m. yesterday, after a quick rehearsal at a local studio, I realized my two saxophones were missing from their case as I walked toward the Imperial Valley Mall parking lot. They’re a black alto with a handful of stickers from past gigs and a trusty silver tenor with a small dent near the bell. Those horns have carried me through countless rehearsals, late buses, and smoky jazz rooms; losing them feels like losing a piece of myself. If someone found them, I’d be grateful beyond words.

Found power tools in Imperial County

Last Saturday around 2:50 PM, I spotted a sturdy toolbox left on a bench outside the Imperial Valley Mall, near the Main Street entrance in El Centro. Inside were several power tools—the drill, a circular saw, and a hammer that rattled when I moved the lid. I felt a sense of responsibility, imagining someone counting on those tools for a home project. I hope the owner sees this and can recover them soon.

Found devices in Imperial County, California

I found a handful of devices along Imperial Avenue in El Centro around 2:10 p.m. today. There’s a tablet with a dent in the corner, a compact laptop charger, and a couple of cords tangled in a neat little pile. They looked like someone relied on them every day, and I can imagine the stress of realizing they weren’t where they should be. I kept them together in a protected bag and brought them to a public desk where they could be claimed or tracked by whoever posted about them online. I’m hoping this helps the owner reclaim at least some part of a hectic day in Imperial County, California.

Found 'Wild and Domestic' item in El Centro, CA.

I found this at 8:15 AM outside the Starbucks by the Imperial Valley Mall in El Centro. A small tote labeled 'Wild and Domestic' was left on a bench, its zipper half-open and contents spilled onto the seat. It smelled faintly of sunscreen and citrus. Inside I spotted a sketchbook, a keyring with a tiny compass, and a couple of pins. It clearly wasn't mine, and I pictured someone arriving later and realizing it was missing. I hope to reunite the owner with this little bag, somewhere near the mall entrance.
