FOUND postcards in Inland Empire, CA

Found this morning around 8:15 on the sidewalk outside Riverside's Mission Inn courtyard in the Inland Empire. A bundle of postcards, aged and worn, lay tucked under a bench. Some stamps date to the 1960s and 70s; others show familiar scenes of the area. The handwriting on the backs reads things like 'To Aunt Rosa' and 'From Grandpa'—they feel like a thread to someone's memories. I picked them up and kept them flat so they wouldn't get bent, hoping the rightful owner will see this and claim them.

LOST pins in Inland Empire

I’m missing a small collection of enamel pins from my backpack after an evening out in the Inland Empire. I last had them around 7:45 p.m. last Friday near Riverside's Courthouse Square, when I stepped into a cafe briefly and must have clipped the backpack zipper, sending the pins clinking and dropping somewhere nearby. The pins include a cactus, a little vintage car, and a tiny wave design—special mementos from trips and events over the years. They’re not just trinkets; they carry memories, and I’d be grateful to see them again.

Found someone else’s devices in Inland Empire

I was heading back to my car in the Ontario Mills parking lot around 3:20 PM last Friday when a tote hidden behind a row of parked SUVs caught my eye. Inside were a black tablet, a silver laptop, and a tangle of chargers. A travel mug and a pair of earbuds sat on top, like someone had just stepped away in a hurry. It felt oddly important to keep these safe, because devices can mean work, schedules, and photos that matter to someone. I kept them secure and handed the whole lot to mall security with a quick note so the owner can be reunited through the site.

Lost shirts near Ontario Mills Mall, Inland Empire

I was at Ontario Mills Mall around 6:20 p.m. on Monday, browsing between the food court and the clearance racks when I realized my shirts were gone from my tote. They are a light blue tee and a charcoal hoodie, both soft from daily gym wear, and I wore them often on my commute. I retraced my steps through stores and the parking lot, hoping to spot a familiar sleeve, but I came up empty. It is a small thing, but it would mean a lot to get them back, especially since one shirt has a favorite saying I would love to have back.

Lost Sandals near Mission Inn, Riverside

Hello, I’m Sophia Martinez. I lost my sandals last night around 7:45 p.m. outside the Mission Inn on Mission Inn Ave in Riverside. They’re tan leather with a small gold buckle, one strap is a bit worn from a hike along the Santa Ana River Trail earlier that day. I remember stepping onto the sidewalk just before the hotel’s fountain, then turning to tell a friend something and realizing one sandal was gone. I’m hoping someone picked them up and left them somewhere safe, and I’ll see them again soon.

I found power tools in Inland Empire

I found these power tools in Inland Empire, California, yesterday around 4:15 PM near the Mission Inn in downtown Riverside. The set includes a drill, a circular saw, and a sturdy toolbox with a label scratched by hand. I kept them secure at the Mission Inn security desk to make sure they didn’t get lost again. I’m hoping the rightful owner sees this and recognizes the tools by their brands and the handwriting on the label.
