Clippings from a Cluttered Mind

By Terry Trautman

My hometown of Columbus, IN should be included in this book because of how unique it is. Without boring you with the complete history of a small town, there's maybe no easier way than to include a description of Columbus that I wrote in 2018. This particular description was not an article for the magazine. I have a friend named Allen who has written a blog probably ever since blogging began. A couple of years ago because he was going on vacation and was aware that I was writing for a magazine, asked me to write his blog for him for ten days and to use articles I had written for the magazine. I was honored to be asked to do that and I selected ten of the articles you will be reading in this book. The first travel article, "Impressions of Iowa," was dedicated to Allen's wife, Lynn, who is an Iowa native. What follows was the introductory email to his bloggers to better explain where I come from. Since Columbus is as unique as it is, this was an enjoyable chore.
