Hi, I'm Grace Williams. At 7:02 p.m. last Friday, I realized my holiday decorations were gone from the front porch of my Gainesville apartment on University Avenue, near 13th Street. The box held a mix of light strings, small ornaments, and a garland that’s been in my family for years. Losing them feels personal and sad as the holidays approach in North Central Florida; they always brighten the entry and remind me of home. If anyone found them around the UF campus—Library West or near University Ave—I’d be grateful to have them back.
On Friday around 7:20 PM, I was tidying up near the Gainesville Farmers Market on SW 1st Avenue when I spotted three glass terrariums tucked behind a vendor's display. They looked handmade, with small ferns and colorful pebbles catching the light. I brought them to a safe spot at the information tent and waited to see if anyone would come looking. They felt precious to me, like a tiny indoor landscape someone cared for, and I hope their owner finds them soon.
I found two parrots perched on my front porch this morning at 8:15 AM in northwest Gainesville, not far from the University of Florida campus. The birds are bright green with blue tails, healthy and clearly someone's pets, but they didn’t have any visible bands. They seemed comfortable around people and followed me toward the gate as I moved around the yard. They look well cared for, so I’m sure someone in north central Florida is missing them, likely near the UF area or Kanapaha Gardens. If you recognize them, please check around Gainesville.
I lost my two puppies tonight, around 6:15 p.m., near Depot Park in Gainesville. I was tying my shoes by the gazebo when a gust of wind snagged their leash and they bolted toward the trees by the creek. I called their names, ran after them, and my heart sank when they disappeared behind the pines. They're small, fluffy, with light brown patches and one has a blue collar. If you see any wagging tails by the park entrance or hear a squeak of excitement, please tell me through the site so I can get them home.
On Friday at 8:30 PM, after unloading groceries near Bo Diddley Plaza in downtown Gainesville, I realized my appliances were missing from the back of our pickup. The loss includes a compact microwave, a coffee maker, and a small toaster oven, all in a portable moving crate. These items are essential for our daily routine, especially as we settle into a new place, and the feeling of losing them is frustrating. The area around Bo Diddley Plaza can get crowded, and I hope someone picked them up by mistake and will return them. If these appliances sound familiar, please check this listing.
I found these bus tickets this morning around 9:15 a.m. by the Gainesville Regional Transit System stop on University Avenue, not far from the UF campus. They were lying on a bench just outside the main entrance to the bus loop, weather-worn but legible. The tickets belong to someone else, presumably a student or traveler with a trip booked for a North Central Florida route. I picked them up, thinking someone might be frantically searching, and I’m posting them here so the rightful owner can reclaim them quickly. If these are yours, I hope you see this and arrange to pick them up through the site.
