Fan mail from Dutch Icon viewer Anje Jonker
Icon:
I enjoy very much reading the Bluffton Icon on my computer. I lived in Bluffton from 1963-1965. I was a Dutch MCC-trainee working at the library of (then) Bluffton College.
Shortly after having arrived at Bluffton some people took me to a small local museum, not far from Bluffton. At that museum there were many appliances and old machinery which we still used every day on my parents' farm back in Holland. It was like living in two eras at the same time.
I enjoyed my time in Bluffton very much.
