The many pieces of Bluffton's Blaze of Lights are coming together as the community approaches Nov. 30.
According to Terry Mullenhour, Village Cultural Affairs Committee chair, Everett Collier, retired Bluffton postmaster, will turn on the lights this year. He served as Bluffton's postmaster for 13 years. He will turn the lights on at 7 p.m. following the parade and one hour of entertainment.
Maddie Essinger, Bluffton High School senior, works on a Ceramics II project during a study hall. She calls the project a "blind pot," because she can't see what it will look like until it comes out of the kiln.
Between the temperatures and the autumnal light, October is turning out nicely. According to statistics collected by Pandora weather observer Guy Verhoff, for the first 18 days of October high temperatures were 65 degrees (F) or warmer. Twice during that time the high temp was 79 degrees. It's only been in the last few days that we are shifting away from that.
Fall days have fall nights and those temperature are staying lower. In fact, October night time lows have been in the 40's for 14 of 21 days.
