Last Saturday, June 4, was high time for a Bluffton Arts & Craft Show. After two gap years, the event returned in a new location and with a new host: Blended Roots at 246 Cherry St. and the neighboring grassy area along Little Riley Creek.
At approximately 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 8, an explosion shook the Bluffton area. Responders including Bluffton Fire and EMS were on the scene, where photos show the home at 2275 SR 103 was totally destroyed.
The Ohio Fire Marshal's office has issued the following information:
"Cause is under investigation and investigator cannot eliminate propane gas leak as cause at this time. No evidence or indication of criminal activity.
Madison Zimmerly and Avery Traxler sell a taste of summer by the bucketful. When the Icon stopped by the Suter Produce red barn on SR 103 at I-75, they said the local strawberry season will last some three weeks.
Dr. Charles Daws, Bluffton University professor of chemistry, has been granted a sabbatical for fall 2022.
He will work with the Bureau of Criminal Investigation’s crime lab at Bowling Green State University on research projects such as improving testing techniques and sensitivity for BCI tools.

The idiom "my cup of tea" is used to refer to something one likes to do. For example, I love to read historical fiction and recently finished a book by one of my favorite authors. Sandra Dallas as an author is my cup of tea! I became familiar with her works when she wrote The Persian Pickle Club about a quilting club in Kansas during the Dust Bowl. I enjoy her books to the point where I order them from the library without looking at the subject. So, I put a loan request in (thanks, Ada Public Library) for her latest novel The Little Souls without thinking about the topic.
