Lose a camera?

Weird that the owner of a camera shop found a camera, but that’s what happened.

Eric Minnig, co owner of Ken’s Camera in Everett, said his family was hiking Aug. 5 at the Big Four Ice Caves.

The family found a digital camera while looking at the memorial for Grace Tam, 11, who was killed by falling ice July 31.

“It’s a nice Canon 640 point and shoot,” he said. “We ran an ad in the lost and found with no luck finding an owner.”

Minnig said there a quite a few photos on the memory card, including what looks like a family reunion or large gathering. For more information, call 425-339-3451.
