Today around 11:20 a.m. I was tidying the walkway near the Old Capitol in downtown Iowa City when I spotted two document holders left on a bench by the College Street entrance. One holder is black leather with a faint University of Iowa stamp; the other is a mustard-yellow fabric case with a zipper that sticks a little. They looked important, stuffed with receipts and a few loose pages. If these belong to someone, I hope they’re reunited through the site soon.
I was putting the finishing touches on a small sculpture display outside the Old Capitol in downtown Iowa City around 9:15 this morning when I discovered two pieces were missing from my crate. I walked along the Pedestrian Mall and checked the nearby shops, but I couldn’t find them. The sculptures are about 10 inches tall, one carved with a curled sheep motif and the other a smooth abstract form, both bearing my initials. It would mean the world to have them back—those pieces hold years of work and a piece of my heart.
I spent Saturday afternoon at the Iowa City Farmers Market, scribbling notes on a stack of postcards to mail to family abroad. Around 4:15 p.m., I set the pile down on a bench near the Old Capitol, then wandered to check out a vendor's stalls. When I looked back, the postcards were gone. Some show the Iowa River from Court Street; others capture our group in front of the campus bookstore. They carry memories from trips and a few kind words I meant to send. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to get them back.
Saturday at about 1:30 pm, I realized my DVDs were missing after I left the Iowa City Public Library and walked toward the Pedestrian Mall near the Pentacrest. I had tucked them in a red tote while chatting with friends on the Library Lawn, and I must have dropped them somewhere along the sidewalk. They’re a handful of sci-fi titles in a red case, nothing flashy but they matter to me. I’m hoping someone honest picked them up and that the campus lost-and-found or the library will get them back to me.
I was wrapping up a late study session at the Iowa City Public Library around 8:20 PM last Friday when I realized my travel adapters were missing from my tote. I recall using them earlier near the south entrance of the library and then walking along the Pedestrian Mall toward the downtown square. The adapters are black with a blue silicone cover and a small dent on the bottom corner. Not having them complicates my upcoming trip, and I’m hopeful someone found them, tucked away in a pocket or tote, and will return them through this page.
Today around 11:20 AM I was in the Iowa City Public Library's Main Library reading room, practicing a few measures from my recital pieces. I left a yellow folder marked with a tiny star on a table near the window by the Pentacrest and walked away for just a minute to answer a call. When I got back, the folder and its contents were gone. Inside is a mix of arrangements I’ve been revising for weeks, with a blue binder and several hand-written notes. It’s more than music to me, and I’m hoping for its speedy return.
