You may not be able to tell a good book by its cover, but you certainly can identify a good used book store when you see one.
Bluffton has such a gem. Book ReViews has officially moved from 115 N. Main to 123 S. Main St., and according to Ruth Unrau, the new space is much larger than the previous one.
The shop offers "thousands of books," according to Unrau, who has yet to unpack all the books that have moved to the new location.
Store hours are 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondays through Fridays and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays.
CRAIG 35 could be the first name of the driver of this vehicle The Icon spotted in the Mennonite Memorial Home parking lot. We suspect, however, that it is the last name. But what does 35 represent?
The registration deadline for the second Bluffton Community Garage Sale has been extended to July 22. The previous deadline was July 17. The Friends of the Bluffton Public Library are sponsoring this event as one of their major fundraisers for the year.
"We hope members of Bluffton will clean out their closets and garages and offer their no longer needed furniture, books, toys, kitchen items, antiques, canning jars, clothes, and appliances for sale Aug 5 and 6 from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Aug. 7 from 8 p.m. until the seller wishes to close," said Janis Potter of the Friends."

November 9, 2009 Girl Scout Troop 8 decided to make a garden in Woodhaven. That day they went to look at the condition of the garden and make measurements to see how much space they had to work with.
Because it was winter, the girls of Troop 8 started planning how the garden should look, and what plants they would need and want.
In March 2010 they broke ground. They moved the soil around to see how it was and what they would need to make it so they could plant. The girls ended up with 2 gardens.
