Flowers to drop in memory

Palm Springs Air Museum honors valor, bravery, and sacrifice on Memorial Day

Each year the Air Museum pays special tribute to our country’s fallen comrades who valiantly represented our country throughout various wars, paying the ultimate price for our freedoms. The dedication ceremony highlights their military service with a fly-by and flower drop of over 3,000 red and white carnations from a B-25 Mitchell bomber. Visitors will be able to pick up a flower to take home.

The Air Museum has been staging the flower drop since the museum was founded in 1996. The white carnations are intended to honor veterans who died in World War I, World War II, and the Korea and Vietnam Wars, and the red carnations honor those who died in more recent conflicts such as Desert Storm, Iraq and Afghanistan.

In addition to the flight exhibitions, which gives visitors the rare opportunity to see real vintage aircraft in action, the event will showcase warbird rides, kids’ activities, live music by the Heatwave Jazz Band, food and beverage vendors and other activities in addition to overhead flights.

The Palm Springs Air Museum features over 70 flyable and static aircraft on display in four hangars including: the Pacific (Navy) Hangar with exhibits and aircraft used by the Navy in the Pacific Theater during World War II; the European (Army) Hangar which features exhibits and aircraft used by the Army in the Europe during World War II; the smallest hangar which contains

the B-17 Flying Fortress, the Berger Youth Exploration Center (including a F-16 Flight Simulator), the General Kenneth P. Miles Aviation Science Center and Freedom Fighters’ Café; the Korea and Vietnam War hanger features exhibits and aircraft used during the war; and the F-117A Hanger is a state of the art hanger that houses the brand new F-117A Nighthawk “Black Devil.”

The Palm Springs Air Museum Memorial Day Flower Drop is held on Monday, May 29 at 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Flower drops starts at 1 p.m. Adult admission is $22. Seniors, veterans, retired military, teenagers (13-17) $20. Active duty and immediate family (significant other + child) free. Kids 12 and under free with paid adult admission The air museum is located at 745 N. Gene Autry Trail, Palm Springs. For more info call 760-778-6262 or visit palmspringsairmuseum.org.

Fascinating facts about Memorial Day

• It was originally called Decoration Day To honor the deceased, soldiers would decorate graves of their fallen comrades with flowers, flags and wreaths. Hence Decoration Day. Although Memorial Day became its official title in the 1880s, the holiday wouldn’t legally become Memorial Day until 1967.

• It’s legally required to observe a National Moment of Remembrance In December 2000, Congress passed a law requiring Americans to pause at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day to remember and honor the fallen. But this doesn’t appear to be common knowledge

• It wasn’t always celebrated the last Monday of May After the Civil War, General John A. Logan, commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, called for a holiday commemorating fallen soldiers to be observed every May 30. But due to the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, which took effect in 1971, Memorial Day was moved to the last Monday of May to ensure long weekends. Some groups, like the veterans’ organization American Legion, have been working to restore the original date to set Memorial Day apart and pay proper tribute to the servicemen and women who sacrificed their lives defending the nation.

Shania Twain brings verve and versatility to her rousing stage show

Grammy Award-winning legend and the best-selling female artist in country music history Shania Twain is bringing her global 49-date tour to the desert, with special guest Hailey Whitters. The tour is in support of Twain’s new album, “Queen of Me,” which was released in February of this year.

ANSWER ON PAGE 10

ANSWER ON PAGE 10

After gaining traction with her music is the 1980s, Twain has continued to release top selling albums with singles including “Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?,” “Any Man of Mine” (which earned her a Grammy award in 1995), “The Woman in Me (Needs the Man in You),” “(If You’re Not in It for Love) I’m Outta Here!.”

Love Gets Me Every Time.” That Don’t Impress Me Much,” “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!,” and “I’m Gonna Getcha Good!” among others. Already charting from her new album “Queen of Me” are the songs, ““Waking Up Dreaming” and “Giddy Up!”

Originally from Canada, Twain is credited for being the first of many country artists to cross over into pop music. Early on, critics found her threatening for eventually neutralizing their critiques by becoming a muchadored idol for men, women and the LGBTQ community. She has sold over 100 million records, and “Billboard” named her as the leader of the ‘90s country-pop crossover stars.

After a hiatus, Twain returned to performing in 2011 followed by an exclusive

concert residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, “Shania: Still the One,” which ran until 2014. Twain released her first studio album in 15 years in 2017, “Now,” and embarked on the Now Tour in 2018. In 2019, she started her second Las Vegas residency, “Let’s Go!” at the Zappos Theater.

Twain has received five Grammy Awards, two World Music Awards, 39 BMI Songwriter Awards, stars on Canada’s Walk of Fame and the Hollywood Walk of Fame and inductions into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. According to the RIAA she is the sixth best-selling female artist in the United States.

Concert is held on Wednesday, May 31 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets range from $50 to $913.50. Visit acrisurearena.com to purchase tickets. Acrisure Arena is located at 75702 Varner Road, Thousand Palms.

Decluttering Do It Your Way

Consider this a firsthand account of clearing clutter. I read several selfhelp books; I sought advice from those who call themselves experts.

But I suspected that the “how to declutter” books would be a lost cause when I saw passages that suggested taking photos of cherished items as a way of remembering them; I knew that plan was not for me. It was the same with instructions to take it one room at a time or to take months to finish the task.

In the end, I rejected all I heard and read and opted for doing it my way: quickly and ruthlessly.

The key to successful decluttering is to ask yourself realistic questions:

If you’re working on clothing and realize that you haven’t worn certain items in years, how likely are you to wear them ever again? If you have a set of dishware once owned by your grandmother and have never used it, are you likely to ever use it

now? If you’re sorting memorabilia from vacations, do you remember the details of your trip?

Give yourself one month to declutter, working at it for at least an hour every day, boxing things up as you go and dividing them into items to be donated or to be thrown out. At the end of the month, call the dump haulers or the people who take donations.

Keep in mind: If you haven’t put up outdoor holiday decorations in five years, you won’t start now. Relatives who indicate they want a certain item need to remove it immediately. You really don’t need 17 sets of sheets or towels. Just because your mother kept her own mother’s cherished items for 30 years doesn’t mean you need to do the same.

But best of all: If something is no longer on a shelf, you don’t have to dust it.

Make your Memorial Day bbq a success

Summer unofficially starts with the arrival of Memorial Day at the end of May. Although it is a holiday designed to honor American military personnel who have died in various wars, it also serves doubleduty as a chance to gather with friends and loved ones and enjoy the return of the warm-weather entertaining season.

Barbecues are the centerpieces of Memorial Day celebrations. It may have been awhile since the grill was fired up, so anyone can use a little refresher course in barbecue etiquette. Here are some tips for making the most of Memorial Day parties.

Ready the grill If your grill has lain dormant for several months, it’s wise to inspect and thoroughly clean it in advance of Memorial Day. Insects like spiders may have built homes inside, and grease and grime may be lingering from last year. Ensure the grill is in top form before cooking for guests.

Keep food safety in mind A study from the U.S. Department of Agriculture found more than half of study participants don’t try to wash their hands when preparing food. Wash hands thoroughly to ensure guests do not get sick at the barbecue. Keep food refrigerated until it is ready to be cooked or served. Use a food thermometer to cook to the required internal temperature to make sure bacteria is destroyed. Do not use the same utensils that touched raw meat to remove cooked food from the grill.

Arrange for shade It can get quite warm outdoors even in May for many areas of the country. Therefore, prepare a spot where guests can escape the sun. If you don’t have enough table umbrellas, consider light netting or canopies for shade. Shift them as needed as the sun moves across the sky.

Develop a signature rub Set your food apart with unique flavors. Create a summer food rub using the herbs and spices you

prefer. Make a big batch to use throughout the grilling season.

Don’t leave food sitting The USDA’s Food Safety Inspection Service advises that food should not be left out for more than two hours, or one hour if the temperature is above 90 F. Keep buffet-style food covered so that insects do not land on the items and run the risk of contamination. Promptly move leftovers indoors if you plan on keeping them.

Offer a variety of beverages It’s important to stay hydrated when the weather is warm. Stock the cooler with plenty of water, juices, iced teas, and the like. If you plan to serve alcoholic beverages, keep them separate from the non-alcoholic items so that children do not have access.

Make it a pot luck If you will be hosting, reduce some of the work by having the main foods available and ask guests to bring the sides and beverages. This will defray the costs and relieve some of the pressure.

Memorial Day barbecues can be successful with some planning and simple safety measures.
