S

uperstar Toby Keith will be the first-ever music act to perform at Coachella Crossroads in Coachella, CA, on Saturday, May 15. It is the latest stop in his nation-wide “Country Comes to Town” tour. Popular country music singer and songwriter Jimmie Allen will open the show at 7:30 p.m. Doors will open at 6 PM. Tickets for this show are only available online.

Keith is one of the modern era’s most complete self-directed hit makers. A singer, songwriter, and musician, Keith has released 19 studio albums, two Christmas albums, and five compilation albums with total worldwide sales of more than 40 million albums.

He has charted 61 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including 20 number one hits and 21 additional top 10 hits.

“The Coachella Valley area has deep country music roots and we’re thrilled to have Toby Keith as the first entertainment act at the new the Coachella Crossroads,” said Chairman Darrell Mike of The Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians. “We know fans will love this concert and our open-air concert venue.

We are excited to report that Coachella Crossroads is lining up additional superstar events through the end of 2021, and we will announce these later.”

What did we really accomplish this past year? We’ve had time, certainly, with all these lockdown days, weeks and months, to do any number of things.

After reviewing my year of COVID, I realize that I could have done so much more, had I only known just how long “flattening the curve” was actually going to take.

By my calculations, I could have accomplished the following: • Painted every room of the house three times. Yet here I sit with color swatches still taped to the wall where I put them last spring when I thought that interior painting would be a good summer project.

• Written 1.25 novels, judging by how long it took to produce the others I never started. Too many

other things to do, too many fun events coming up, I thought. Had I known just how much free, quiet and solitary time there was going to be, I would have started on Day One. • Become fluent in French with Duolingo free online lessons.

I misjudged the coronavirus, seriously misjudged just how long it would be with us. I was certain that it would be gone by June.

Then by September. And here we are, 15 months later, still wearing masks and staying home.

I’m determined not to let another year go by with so little to show for it. I’ve picked an interior paint color. Now I’ll order the paint and go collect it curbside at the hardware store. The first file of a new novel is ready, with “Chapter 1” and a first paragraph. It’s a start. My Duolingo account is still there, holding my place where I left off long ago.

It’s possible that in a year, we’ll be right where we are now. What will you do with the time? (c) 2021 King Features Synd., Inc.

They weren’t joshing!

Hundreds of folks named Josh, armed with foamy flotation devices better known as “pool noodles,” gathered for a raucous contest recently in a park in Lincoln, NE, just for the fun of it, reports the Association of Mature American Citizens. It was the brainchild

of Josh Swain who, like many of us, was suffering from the loneliness of the Covid lockdown. So, Swain collected a list of people named Josh and contacted them via social media, inviting them to a gathering of Joshes. A few Joshes quickly turned into a lot of

Joshes who came from all over the country. It started out as a joke, a way to pass the time online, and it ended with upwards of one thousand people, hundreds of whom had the first name Josh. The event allowed the Joshes to collect hundreds of pounds of food for the

needy and some $12,000 for the Children’s Hospital and Medical Center Foundation in Omaha.

Let go my Lego Ask a cop and he or she will tell you that theft is a top crime of choice among the world’s criminals. There are jewel thieves, auto thieves and, of course, bank robbers. And now, French police are focusing their attention on an international gang of, what England’s Guardian newspaper, calls Lego Looters, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens. They recently arrested a woman and two men in the act of lifting Legos in a toy store near Paris and when questioned they revealed that they were part of a gang

specializing in robbing special editions of the popular building block toys. Similar thefts have been reported throughout Europe and in the U.S. There’s big money to be made selling stolen Legos, says professional online auctioneer Van IJken. He explains that the company keeps changing out its offerings and so a special 2007 $150 Lego set can fetch as much as $3,000 today, if kept in its original condition.

Hitori Answer

Brain Teaser Answer A book

VA Vaccine Clinic Gets a Thumbs-Up I wasn’t the only one walking down the street toward the Department of Veterans Affairs pop-up vaccine clinic. In fact, there were about six guys who were doing the same thing I was: scoping out the situation before actually getting in the drive-up line for the vaccine.

I’ll say it right off the top here: The VA did this right. They did a good job on the logistics and execution. Here in town, they’d selected a location with lots of

space outside. There was an army of volunteers of all kinds, laying out a traffic cone grid in the parking lot, directing cars along the rows, nurses with tablets taking information, VA medical staff giving shots through car windows.

There was even an observation area where cars would park afterward (with medical staff there) in case a veteran had a bad reaction.

“Looks pretty good,” said one guy as we hovered on the sidewalk and watched. A few others chimed in, agreeing. One muttered something about an expected SNAFU, but there was none of that to be seen. We stopped a couple of cars with veterans leaving after getting their shots and queried them about how it had gone. SITREP: It was great.

Now that everyone age 16 and

up is eligible for the vaccine, and now that SAVE (Strengthening and Amplifying Vaccination Efforts) has opened up a long list of veteran-related people who are eligible, if you want to get the vaccine, make an appointment now.

If you wait too long, the demand for vaccines will eventually slack off, and these nearby pop-up clinics will be gone.

Keep an eye on the news for VA pop-up clinics in your area. Judging by how this drive-thru clinic was run, I have confidence that the VA is doing just as well in other areas where they’re giving vaccines: medical centers, community clinics, outreach centers, mobile units -- and even rural parking lots.

The Living Desert opens new desert plant conservation center

HD-12428_1

In celebration of National Public Gardens Week, now through May 16, The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens announces the opening of its new Desert Plant Conservation Center, an exhibit of desert plants ranging from seed to mature plants.

The Center, nestled across from the pronghorn habitat in the North America section of the park, invites guests to explore and experience many of the plants they know and love from the park’s gardens and desert ecosystem all in a new setting.

“Plant conservation is an im-

portant pillar of The Living Desert’s mission and we are proud to showcase our efforts at this new center. Through the preservation and propagation of native plants we can further our work of desert conservation from the ground up,” said Dr. James Danoff-Burg, Director of Conservation. “Learning about the relationship between desert plants and animals is critical to helping the public understand the importance of conservation and their role to play.”

The Desert Plant Conservation Center serves a variety of functions. As an official Plant Rescue

Center, designated by the US Department of Agriculture, the Center cares for plants that have been confiscated due to illegal wildlife trafficking, such as the popular saguaro cactus. As a propagation garden, many of the plants in the Center are being reproduced for habitat restoration projects like

the desert pupfish habitat at Salt Creek, near the Salton Sea. The Center will also propagate other plant species to provide additional vegetation for recreating native habitats for The Living Desert’s animals, and provide nutritional resources, both of which are essential to their survival.

The Desert Plant Conservation Center is open to the public during park operating hours. The Living Desert is open daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Face coverings and advanced reservations are required. Tickets can be purchased online at LivingDesert.org.
