Scenes like this one were taken over and over again this morning as the first day of Bluffton school took place. This view is the Honse family taking a photo of Elizabeth, 4th grader, and Anna, 1st grader. Ethan needs to wait a year. More photos and a video are posted today.
It was 93 school years ago. This is the Bluffton College women's Hiking Club. The page is from the Ista and it tells about the club and identifies members (but not in standing order.)
There are many familiar Bluffton last names, including Steiner, Hilty, Sprunger, Yoder, Lehman, Lugibihl, Gratz, Gerber, Schumacher, Diller and Niswander.
You won't see this plate on any vehicle. But, you will see it on Tyler Hochstetler, Bluffton police sergeant's office wall. Hochstetler received the plate during a recognition event in 2016 from MADD of Allen-Hancock-Putnam counties for the number of DUI arrests that he made.
It's a new football season. Troy Breidenbach took this photo of the Bluffton High School football team as it entered Harmon Field for Friday's season opener. For more of Breidenbach's game photos click here.
