Hi, I'm Grace Mitchell. I misplaced my Travel Adapters during a walk along the Des Moines Riverfront near the Iowa State Capitol in Des Moines, Iowa, United States, last Thursday around 7:15 p.m. They’re a compact black set with a red trim and a small silver label. I remember swapping them between a blue backpack and a gray tote near the gift shop entrance at the Capitol grounds. I'm dependent on those adapters for work trips, and I’m hoping they find their way back to me.
I was strolling along the Des Moines Riverwalk near Court Avenue around 2:15 PM today when I spotted a neat set of stainless utensils tucked behind a planter by the water. I picked them up, brushed off a few leaves, and scanned for an owner, but no one appeared. The forks and knives looked recently used, and I’m sure they belong to someone who loves to cook after a long day. I’m posting this to help reunite them with their kitchen—hopefully the rightful owner sees this soon.
I was packing up after a long day and stepped outside onto Grand Avenue around 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday, when I realized my Avians were gone from the window sill by my desk. Avians is the name I gave to a small collection of five ceramic bird figurines—the glaze runs from pale blue to moss green, each with a tiny wire tail. They’ve been a comfort since college, especially because one bird was a keepsake from my grandmother who lived here in Des Moines. I retraced every step: the Riverwalk along the Des Moines River, the East Village cafe on 3rd Street, and back to my apartment. Losing them hit hard, like losing a piece of home. If anyone found them, they belong on my shelf back where they belong.

I lost my hamsters tonight and I’m really anxious to get them back. I last saw them around 7:15 p.m. near the Pappajohn Sculpture Park by the riverfront, just behind the Des Moines Civic Center. They’re tiny, about the size of ping-pong balls, one with a light brown coat and the other with a gray belly. I’ve searched the nearby paths, the bookstore alley, and the dog park, but I can’t shake the feeling they vanished into the evening air. If someone finds a squeaky rustle of tiny feet, please help them get home to me.
I lost my student ID around 4:15 p.m. today at the Drake University campus library and the adjacent student union area in Des Moines. I was wrapping up a quick study session and must have slipped it from my pocket while I was jotting notes at a table near the cafe. That card is more than just a form of ID; it gets me into campus services and connects me with friends, and I feel a bit exposed without it. If you found something that looks like a student ID near the library stairs, the coffee shop, or the entrance to the student union, please log it via the site so I can reclaim it.
