Approaching Bluffton from the southeast, we continue our aerial coverage of the community. From previous photos we've established this series was taken in the late 1940s. Here's a view of the Harmon Field complex.
We'd like to point your attention to the bottom right of the photo. You'll see a side track on the Nickel Plate Railroad that no longer exists. You'll also see what appears to be a handcar on the track.
On the bottom left is the water works quarry, now filled in and known as Steinmetz Field.

Plotting your garage sale route just became easier thanks to The Bluffton Icon. The Icon this week launches a garage sale map. The map lists every garage sale posted on The Icon.
"Several garage salers have asked if we could create a map," said Fred Steiner of The Icon. "We've experimented with at least four different versions and are happy to officially launch it.'"
