Lost & found watches in Missoula

Lost wrist watches near Caras Park

I had paused for a quick stretch by Caras Park and the Clark Fork River around 6:40 PM on Tuesday, June 3, when I realized my two wrist watches were gone from the bench. One is a dark leather-strapped vintage piece, the other a sleek silver sports watch; they aren’t priceless, but they’re part of my routine and memory. I retraced the path along the river from Higgins Avenue to Caras Park, hoping someone picked them up, but I came up empty. If they’re found, I’d be grateful; these watches carry too many small moments to let go.
