I was walking home from the Waterloo Farmers Market around 7:45 this morning when I spotted a box of holiday decorations sitting on the curb under a flickering streetlight near the Main Street Bridge over the Cedar River in downtown Waterloo. The garlands were tangled with string lights, a lonely red stocking showed a bit of wear, and a small note tucked under a ribbon looked like someone had hurriedly packed up for a gathering. I picked them up and hoped to reunite them with their rightful owner, imagining the home they belong to around the corner. If you’re missing them, they’re safe with me for now, and I’m keeping an eye out for a familiar name tag or project around the block.
I’m posting this after realizing my radios are missing. I last had them while crossing College Square in Cedar Falls around 8:15 p.m. last Friday, on the way back from the library. They are compact handheld units, black with a silver face and a small crack on one corner. They mattered to me beyond their value — they were a gift from my dad and they help me stay connected when I am out on calls. I retraced my steps and asked everyone I passed, but no luck so far. If someone finds them, I would be grateful to have them back and keep them in the family.
Hi, I’m Grace Miller from the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area. Last Sunday around 6:30 PM I left a small stack of postcards on the kitchen table while I was sorting mail at my apartment near Main Street in downtown Waterloo. When I got back, they were gone. They document trips to Chicago and Des Moines and hold notes I planned to mail to my sister in Cedar Falls. I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe.
I lost USB Drives in Waterloo / Cedar Falls, Iowa, United States. This afternoon, around 3:45 p.m., I was at College Square in downtown Waterloo, near the Sullivan Brothers Veterans Museum. I had them tucked into a navy sleeve inside my backpack, and then they vanished while I was loading a lecture note onto my laptop. The drives hold essential work and personal files, and I am anxious about the data inside. I searched the benches, the bookstore steps, and the transit hub, hoping they'd reappear, but nothing yet. I keep remembering the clink of the USB sticks and the hum of the street, and I miss them already.
On Sunday around 3:40 PM, I was at the University of Northern Iowa’s Maucker Union in Cedar Falls, hopping between the coffee shop and the library entrance. I realized my travel adapters were missing from my backpack after I charged my laptop in a quiet corner by the study pods. They’re small, black with a red stripe, and I know I last had them near the library staircase. I’m traveling soon and feel frustrated about replacing them. If someone found them, I’d hope they’re somewhere safe on campus so they can be returned.
I lost my black leather tote yesterday around 3pm near the UNI campus entrance on College Street in Cedar Falls. It's a Michael Kors medium tote, black leather, with a gold MK charm on the handle and a small red tassel on the zipper. The inside lining is pink with a subtle floral pattern, and there’s a coffee stain on the bottom-right corner plus a tiny scuff along the bottom edge. This bag means a lot to me—it's a gift from my grandmother and holds sentimental value. If you've seen it anywhere around the Waterloo-Cedar Falls area, I’d really appreciate getting it back.
