Makita 18V cordless drill in teal case near Old Capitol
I lost my Makita 18V cordless drill yesterday around 3pm near the Old Capitol on Clinton Street, by the pedestrian bridge behind the university library. It’s in a teal Makita case with a cracked rubber grip on the handle and the battery looks a bit swollen from heavy use. The lid has blue painter’s tape with my initials 'PP' on it, and there’s a tiny magnetic bit set wedged in the foam. It’s not just a tool—it's how I finish weekend projects, and it was a gift from my dad, so it has real sentimental value. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; I can meet somewhere convenient to pick it up.
Lost red and black power drill with carved initials near the alley behind a garage.
I misplaced a red and black power drill while working on a renovation project in my garage. I last saw it sitting on the workbench and when I returned, it was gone. I'm pretty sure I dropped it somewhere near the alley behind my house while moving some other tools. It has my initials carved into the handle, so it should be easy to identify. If you find it, please let me know!
Found an antique wooden rocking chair with carved arms and dark stain near the park on Lynn Street in Iowa City.
I found an antique wooden rocking chair near the park on Lynn Street in Iowa City last weekend. It looks quite old, with beautiful carvings on the arms and a rich, dark stain. I don’t know how long it’s been there, but it seemed like it could belong to someone who values it greatly. If it’s yours, please provide a description to claim it.
Lost navy blue comforter with small white stars left at the park near the riverfront.
I accidentally left my favorite navy blue comforter at the park near the riverfront while I was enjoying a picnic with friends. It has a few small white stars printed on it and is super soft. If anyone finds it or has picked it up, I would really appreciate getting it back. It means a lot to me.
