Lost laptop on Highway 64 South near the Grand Canyon

01 July 2011

Posted by heidileej

Hello! I left a black Dell laptop on top of my car Monday, June 28th at Mather Campground in the Grand Canyon. We drove from there to the visitors' center and then headed south on Interstate 64 South, headed for LA. I am thinking I heard a noise half an hour onto 64, and in retrospect, I am guessing that may have been my computer falling. If anyone comes across a computer on the roadside or in the park, I would love a call at 970-556-1650. It has 5 years of family pictures on it, and that part is pricelss!
Thanks,
Heidi

Ouch! I keep a double back-up of my hard disk on two separate removable drives. If you have any high value information on a computer, you absolutely must back up that data. Hard disk drives of incredible capacity cost little more than $100 now. Think of them as cheap insurance! By the way, they only work if you use them - constantly. You can back up once a week if you are willing to risk that much data. I always try to back up shortly after adding more pictures to my collection.

By the way, this kind of message should be a post on the forum rather than a blog unless you intend to turn this into a continuing story about the travels of your lost laptop! You'll get many more readers than here on the blog. New forum articles are highlighted on the home page, you only find the blogs if you go to the blog page.

Good luck finding your laptop.
