My Mom lost her camera on one of the trips we took as a whole family. I think it was about 30 years ago..pre digital camera days. She was pretty upset about it and sad that she did not have the pictures from our trip to the western states. Well..about 1 month after our return home my Mom recieved a package in the mail. It was of her camera with the developed photos!! Someone had found her camera, developed the pictures and was able to see the license plate numbers on one of the pictures. She said she went to the police department to track down our address.
