Tan leather tote with gold hardware
I was hurrying to class yesterday around 3pm and think I left my tan leather tote near the CSUSM Library cafe on Campus Way in San Marcos. It's a medium Michael Kors tote with gold hardware, a tiny coffee stain on the bottom corner, and a bright red tassel zipper pull I added myself. The inside lining is a faded navy polka dot, and I keep my planner and a family photo inside, which makes it feel really sentimental. If anyone found it, I’d be forever grateful to get it back—it's really important to me and has sentimental value.
Brown and white terrier mix, lost near Texas State campus
I lost my brown-and-white terrier mix yesterday around 3pm near the Texas State University campus in San Marcos on Aquarena Springs Drive, by the LBJ Student Center. He's a medium-sized guy, about 20 pounds, with a bright red collar and a small silver tag that has my number. There’s a heart-shaped white patch on his chest and a tiny scar on his left hind leg that you can spot when he lies down. He’s a bit shy with strangers but warms up quickly, and he’s been my hiking buddy since I adopted him last year; this dog means the world to me. If anyone spots him, please text me—I’m really worried and would be so grateful to bring him home.
Beige Phonak hearing aid with red heart sticker
I lost my beige Phonak hearing aid yesterday around 3pm near the San Marcos Public Library on East Hopkins Street. It's a small behind-the-ear device with a beige plastic shell and a slightly scratched silver lid. I stuck a tiny red enamel heart sticker on the lid so I’d recognize it. The ear mold is clear with a subtle blue accent. I rely on it for conversations and daily life, so I’m really hoping it turned up near the library steps or by the bike rack outside the entrance.
Lost LSZEE jersey at LYNY show
I lost my LSZEE jersey at the LYNY show at the Marc on 12/6. I was at the rail on the left front side and I had it hung over the rail. At the end of the show it was gone. The jersey was size XL
Red tote bag with star patch
Lost a red canvas tote bag yesterday around 3pm near the H-E-B on Wonder World Drive in San Marcos. It's a compact tote, about 12 inches wide and 9 inches tall, with a navy zipper and a small white embroidered star on the front. Inside there’s a well-worn black notebook, a blue gel pen, and my student ID with a tiny coffee ring on the corner. The bag has sentimental value because it was a gift from my sister, and I really need it back to sort through class notes and bills. If you found it, shoot me a message so we can meet at a safe spot in town.
Blue sparkle snare drum with chrome hardware
I found a blue sparkle snare drum this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the San Marcos Public Library on Hopkins Street. It's a Pearl Export Series 14x6.5 inch snare with a clear blue sparkle finish and bright chrome hardware. The shell has a couple of light scratches along the edge and a small dent near the throw-off. Inside, there's a faded sticker with the initials 'M.S.' I left it near the library's bike racks, hoping the owner would recognize it. If this belongs to you, describe the dent and the interior sticker to confirm and I can meet you to return it.
Silver MacBook Air 13-inch in black sleeve
I found a silver MacBook Air 13-inch this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the San Marcos Public Library on East Hopkins Street, tucked by the bike racks. It’s in a black neoprene sleeve with a small green dragon sticker on the lid and a faint coffee stain near the bottom-right corner. The laptop boots up and looks in decent shape, the Apple logo is intact, and the screen shows a nature wallpaper—no charger was with it. If this is yours, drop me a message with a couple identifying details (like the sleeve sticker or the wallpaper) and we can arrange a pickup near the library.
Penguin Classics paperback found near San Marcos Library
I found a Penguin Classics paperback this afternoon around 1:30pm, tucked behind the benches outside the San Marcos Public Library on East Hopkins Street. It’s a blue cover, about 6 by 9 inches, with a slightly worn spine and a coffee-stained edge. Inside, there’s a small doodle of a cat on page 62 and a sticky note with the name 'Mira' written in neat cursive. The book looks well-loved but readable, and it seems someone would miss it because of the unique doodle. I’m happy to hold onto it until the owner claims it here on the app; just send a message and we can meet near the library steps.
Hand-painted blue ceramic vase with gold flecks
I found a hand-painted ceramic vase this morning around 9:15 am outside The Square on Hopkins Street, downtown San Marcos. It’s about 10 inches tall with a slender neck and a cobalt blue glaze sprinkled with tiny gold flecks that catch the sun. There’s a maker’s mark on the bottom reading 'M. Tran 2019' and a small signature along the side. The rim has a tiny chip and there are a couple of faint glaze cracks near the base, but overall it’s in good condition. If this looks like yours, I’d love to help get it back to you.
Found a friendly orange tabby cat with green eyes and a bell collar near the park in San Marcos.
I found a sweet orange tabby cat yesterday evening near the park in San Marcos. He seems friendly and healthy, with bright green eyes and a collar that has a small bell but no identifying tags. I took him in and gave him some food, and he’s been huddling at my feet ever since. I'm hoping to reunite him with his owner, as he must be missed.
