NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Think back to the craziness and uncertainty of 2020. Everyone was trying to get by and take life one day at a time.

Nikki Provenzano spent time outdoors and in April of that year she found a note near Edwin Warner Dog Park. It has been with her for almost four years.

The note is full of positive affirmations and cheers on whoever found it.

"I came across this note and I read it and I truly felt like it was meant for me," Provenzano said.

She wants to find the owner after she has taken this note from house to house, including a move to Florida and back to Tennessee.

If you know who wrote this note or you are the author reach out to Cole Johnson at Cole.Johnson@newschannel5.com.

Santa Train stops feel especially impactful in wake of Hurricane Helene

There are still so many families in East Tennessee hurting following the floods from Hurricane Helene in September. That made this year's running of the Santa Train extra special for many families in the northeast part of the state. This special Santa Express has been making an annual run in part of Appalachia for over 80 years.
