Mark & Mary Jo





On my way to Coral Cables Il Forno Restaurant I met Mark and Mary Jo, two vacationers on their way to get a bite to eat. They found my bike to be quite squeeky and joked about it with me. We talked about my project and they were eager to answer questions I had about their experiences with lost and found.

When asked what she would do if she lost something dear to her Mary Jo said she would respond with an 'oh fuck.' Her 'oh fuck' came when she lost the diamond out of her ring Mark gave her. She went days without telling Mark, hiding her hands, and a few days later Mark found it on the ground of her living room.

Mark said the most important thing had lost was his mind. But really, he said it was probably his wallet and keys that he lost while naked canoeing in his early twenties. After a night of debauchery their canoe tipped early in the morning, his pants went into the water; keys and wallet gone forever. To top it off, right around the time the canoe tipped a group of Amish women rode by just in time to see a group of naked men looking for their lost possessions.

Items Found: (3)
