I had a brain fart! This is a UH OH moment!

I had a brain fart! This is a UH OH moment!

I washed my clothes the other day and after pulling them out of the dryer, I noticed my thumb drive laying on the bottom of the drum. I'm thinking CRAP!

I have a lot of images saved on that thumb drive. So I'm writing a blog for my website and doing some work on it and plug in my thumb drive to upload some images and you probably guessed it by now. USB device not reconized!

I even have my logos saved on that device. Now what do I do? I'm trying to think if I have them saved anywhere else.

Ready to put this into action?

Is there any way to retrieve the information off of a washed and dryed thumb drive?

Or am I just SOL?

This was truely a brain fart kinda day. A UH OH moment.

Any help would be appreciated!
