One horse-power bike ride

You never know what you'll see on a group bicycle ride with the CG Pro Bike crew. On last week's ride a free-roaming horse joined the party near County Road 52. Raymond Harner took this photo of the scene. With the assistance of a Hancock County Sheriff's deputy, the horse was returned to its nearby home. (Photo from CG Pro Bikes Facebook)

Maple Crest residents take a trip to Gallery 323

Maple Crest residents caught a glimpse of an artist at work recently during a tour of Gallery 323, an art gallery and shop operated by Gregg Luginbuhl on Main Street, Bluffton.

During the visit, they discovered artistic items - created for the most part by Luginbuhl - from white porcelain clay. Additional  pieces, including paintings and jewelry, are for sale by other artists in Bluffton.

Gregg's artistic talent came down through the genes, in a sense, as his father, Darvin Luginbuhl, was a former art professor at Bluffton University.
