Area authors contribute to anthology Three Rim Country authors Barbara Lacey, Carol La Valley and Carol Osman Brown are among those featured in a new anthology, “Skirting Traditions — Arizona Women Writers and Journalists, 1912-2012.” The book, produced by Arizona Press Women, is an Arizona Centennial Legacy Project. They will be signing copies of the book at the Rim Country Museum, 700 S. Green Valley Parkway, on Saturday, March 17, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The book chronicles the lives and accomplishments of 28 remarkable Arizona women who used their writing skills to record history, report news, argue a cause, expose injustice and promote awareness of the diverse people of the Southwest. The biographies were written by 18 award-winning members of Arizona Press Women (a non-profit group). Proceeds from book sales will benefit journalism scholarships in Arizona. As part of the Arizona Centennial celebration, the Northern Gila County Historical Society is hosting the book signing. This newly released book will be available in the museum gift shop. Additional information is available at www.skirtingtraditions.com. The anthology, published by Wheatmark of Tucson, is designated an Arizona Centennial Legacy Project by the Arizona Historical Advisory Commission.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
CARIBBEAN CRUISING
Last week I wrote about a two-week trip that included Florida and a one-week Caribbean cruise. In Florida we first visited Orlando and Disneyworld Park. We particularly enjoyed Epcot, which can be compared to a world’s fair. We spent a day there seeing most of the exhibits in the various pavilions and riding many of the conveyances available to view their interiors. Epcot is sprawled over some 300 acres at Disneyworld. From Orlando, we drove south to Ft. Lauderdale and visited, among other places, the Everglades Safari Park to ride one of the Air Boats KEN BROOKS through the swampy terrain. Come Saturday we turned in our rented automobile and prepared to depart our hotel and be transferred to the port of Ft. Lauderdale to board the ship we had chosen for a week’s Caribbean cruise. This we did early in the afternoon and found the check-in process at the dock very fast and easy. Our chosen ship was MSC’s (Mediterranean Shipping Company) lovely Poesia which translates roughly to “poem of the seas.” It is only 5 years old and still looks as if it just came from the builders. Painted white and blue it is 963 feet long and 93,300 gross tons large. It has space for 2,500 passengers in lovely staterooms that look as though a top designer decorated each room. I know of no other cruise line whose cabins are so well designed and decorated as MSC’s ships. Soon after we boarded and found our stateroom, we were hungry and took an elevator to the top pool deck where the Villa Pompelana buffet is located. We filled our plates, enjoyed lunch and returned to our stateroom to find our luggage had arrived so we spent the next half hour unpacking. The MSC Poesia has good closet space for the average cruiser as well as plenty of drawer space for selected items. The bathrooms are wisely planned and allow space for your personal articles there. The MSC line also supplies shampoos, body soap, and other items you expect in an upscale hotel or ship. We also had a large balcony equipped with two nice chairs and table. We spent a lot of time outside enjoying the calm seas and warm sun. The balcony also allows you privacy from the other guests while sitting outside. Balcony rooms also have large sliding glass windows and doors which allow a lot of outside sunshine to lighten your room. Our stateroom had a large dressing table, very large bed, a couch, coffee table, color flat screen TV, small refrigerator, and personal safe among

some of the features. And each stateroom has individual controls for heating and air conditioning. The MSC Poesia offers many public rooms to enjoy during sea days: a very large casino, lounges, bars, meeting rooms, upscale shopping, several restaurants, the cafeteria, two swimming pools, European spa, exercise rooms, hair dressing salons, wine tasting rooms, several musical groups that play during the day as well as in the lounges at night. In the main atrium area a fine classical musical quartet plays before dinner, getting you into the mood for fine dining. And, fine dining it is. The two main restaurants serve breakfast, lunch and dinner at specified times with a vast menu of selections. Being an Italian ship, some of the courses are Italian recipes and are they good! You will find everything from shrimp, lobster and steak to lesser-known dishes, which are tempting to try. The salads are the best as well as the soups. Desserts are out of this world! The service is exemplary and always with a smile. Also available are two alternative dining venues, one is Italian and the other Japanese. The MSC Poesia caters to not only North Americans, but also Europeans. Half the ship’s passengers on our voyage were from other countries. Because of this the

entertainment cannot use language, but instead offers the best dancers, magicians, trapeze artists, and singers. The ship must have at least 40 main stage entertainers that appear in the large and beatifically decorated theater that easily seats 1200. The sound and lighting system is superb and much like that found in the best theaters in America. I hear some people say they don’t think they want to take a cruise because there isn’t much for them to do while at sea and they are afraid they will be bored. Not so today. In just one day at sea on the MSC Poesia there were the daytime activities: morning exercises, aerobics, arts and crafts, beauty demonstration, good morning game, ping pong tournament, general trivia contest, line dancing, bingo, movie trivia, Italian lesson, TV theme song trivia, fashion show, cocktail demonstration, table soccer tournament and always, of course, there is the casino. In your stateroom the various channels on TV include CNN as well as several others and they come to the ship via satellite. I also enjoy the movies shown on TCM and others. Wi-fi is available by signing up at the front desk. In other words, today on a popular cruise ship you don’t CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

IN THE KITCHEN | LIVING ON A DIME
Homemade baking mix recipes We have all heard the warnings about salt and preservatives in the packaged foods we use. So, why not make our own version of one multi-tasking packaged food — the baking mix. The following recipes were provided to The Rim Review from Tawra Kellam, publisher and editor of Living On A Dime.com.
BAKING MIX 9 cups flour 2/3 cup dry milk 3 tablespoons baking powder 2 teaspoons salt 1 cup shortening (or 1/2 cup shortening and 1/2 cup butter*) Mix flour and other dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Use a mixer on low to cut in the shortening to save time. Store in an airtight container up to 6 months. This recipe uses a five-pound sack of flour when doubled. *Refrigerate if using butter.
BAKING MIX PANCAKES 2-1/4 cups baking mix 1/4 cup sugar 1 egg 1-1/2 cups water 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Mix ingredients until moist. The batter should be lumpy. Cook on a hot greased griddle. Flip when bubbles break on the surface and the edges begin to dry. Makes 15-18 medium pancakes.
BAKING MIX BISCUITS Muffins
2-1/4 cups baking mix 2/3 cup water or milk Mix lightly until dough forms a ball. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead 10 to 12 times. Roll dough about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a 2-inch cutter or the rim of a glass dipped in flour. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet. For drop biscuits, use 1 cup water and drop by tablespoonfuls onto a baking sheet. Makes one dozen. *For cheese biscuits, add 1/4 cup cheddar cheese.
BAKING MIX MUFFINS 2-1/4 cup baking mix 1/4 cup sugar 1 egg 3/4 cup water 1/3 cup vegetable oil Mix dry baking mix and sugar. Add egg, water and vegetable oil to dry ingredients. Mix only enough to moisten flour. The batter will be lumpy. Fill greased muffin tins two-thirds full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. *For an added surprise fill muffin cup halfway and then add a spoonful of jelly. Top with more batter. Add raisins, cinnamon or nuts for gourmet muffins. Makes 12-15 muffins.
BUTTERFLY RING 2-1/2 cups baking mix 1 tablespoon sugar 1 egg, beaten 2/3 cup milk 1/4 cup butter, room temperature Grease a jellyroll sheet and preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix first four ingredients until well blended. Dough will be sticky. Knead on a lightly floured surface 18 times. Roll out into an 11inch-by-14-inch rectangle. Spread butter on the dough, then the filling on the dough. Serves 12. Filling 2 tablespoons butter, melted 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 cup nuts (optional) 1/2 cup cherry jelly (raspberry, strawberry or any other jam or jelly will work) 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 tablespoons flour Add the ingredients to the melted butter. Blend until smooth. If necessary, heat jelly 30 seconds in the microwave if you need to make it smooth. Spread filling onto dough. Roll the dough lengthwise and seal the edges by pinching them together. Form into a circle on the jellyroll
Biscuits
pan. Cut 4 to 5 slits in the top to release steam. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool and frost with butter cream frosting.
BREAKFAST PUFFS 2 cups baking mix 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 2 tablespoon butter or margarine, softened 1/2 cup milk 1 egg 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted 2/3 cup sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pancakes

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY RIM COUNTRY HISTORY | TIM EHRHARDT
KEY FIGURES OF EARLY PAYSON
Folks like to talk about our country’s Founding Fathers from time to time, yet I rarely hear it discussed on a local level. Here’s my take on Payson’s “founding fathers.” WILLIAM BURCH
If you forced me to pick just one person … just one … it’s Burch. Now this isn’t to say that Burch didn’t have some early company — after all, early accounts also refer to one John Hook. But Hook is out of the picture by 1878 or so and while Burch never stuck around to become long in the tooth, he was around for at least another decade or so before moving down to the Buckeye area. The book “Rim Country History” has the following to say about Burch: “William Burch came to Gila County (then Yavapai County) in 1876. He was the first TIM EHRHARDT settler to build a house located where the 5th green is now on the golf course in Payson. He was prominent in the founding of the town. He entered into the mining business and had the first sawmill. He was in on the cattle interests. He served as justice of the peace in Payson in 1891.” Let’s expand on the mining mention for a moment. Burch was a co-founder of the Excursion Mine. Who founded it along with him? None other than DeForest Porter, who was a territorial Supreme Court judge and later mayor of Phoenix. In my opinion, that tells me Burch was a player, probably THE player early on. He was the person you’d go to if you just came into the area and wanted to know what was really what. Birch Mesa, up by today’s airport, is named for Burch, even though it is mis-
spelled. Burch married Ida Jeanette Hazelton in 1883 and they had a number of children together in Payson before moving down to the Buckeye area. On Sept. 7, 1900, William Burch received a patent on 160 acres of land in that area.
Born in Arkansas, Harer came west to Oregon in the 1850s. He went down to California before migrating eastward to Arizona. He and his wife Josephine had eight children and many old-timers in the area today can find them in their family trees.
IRVING MONROE HOUSE
THE HOUSTONS
If you’ve read my articles at all, you probably know that I’m a major House fan. He was one of the founders of the first recorded mining claim in the area, the Golden Waif, and was in the area a long time. He ultimately died in Mesa in 1945. Why would I put Burch ahead of House? It’s really because Burch was located in the historic heart of Payson, while House was a bit outside of it. Still though, House is a pretty memorable guy.
Here’s another group of folks that have some California ties, and ended up in the Phoenix area after their time in the Payson area. Andrew and Samuel Houston came to this area in the late 1870s from Visalia, Calif. They settled in the area of today’s Star Valley, where they ranched. Sam Houston died in the early 1890s and they had already been spending more time outside of the area by then — Sam patented some land in west Mesa in 1890. Houston Mesa Road is named for them. Ironically, their sister ended up in the area even longer. Katherine Houston married John W. Wentworth, who would leave a significant imprint on the region.
LAFAYETTE NASH
Ah, Lafayette Philander Nash, a gentleman who made one of the worst trades of all time. He founded the Golden Wonder mine in 1878. A couple of years later he traded it to Emer Chilson for his store at Marysville and perhaps some money. Oops. Marysville, a mining town west of today’s Payson, soon went bust, while the Golden Wonder is still being worked to this day. However, when you look at Nash, you tend to place him more in Strawberry — that’s where he could probably be put into the “founding father” class. Payson? Probably not the right fit. GOING OUTSIDE OF PAYSON SOME …
DAVID HARER
If we’re looking at the region as a whole, including Tonto Basin, David Harer would probably be founding father No. 1 instead of William Burch. He was clearly here by the mid 1870s at the latest and had a very significant impact.
RIAL ALLEN AND ALFRED J. RANDALL
These LDS settlers had a major role in settling the area, particularly Pine. A number of Mormon settlements were established in the early days of the region, including Gisela and Mazatzal City. The latter of which is where Doll Baby Ranch is now located. Yet Pine is where Allen and Randall settled. Allen was 35 years old when he and Randall purchased squatters rights along Pine Creek from Henry Siddles and “Old Man” Bunch. (Source: Michael F. Anderson’s A Place in the Land, which is a history of Pine). Allen spent only about 13 years in Pine before moving to Tuba City, Ariz.
Randall stuck around his entire his life and the Randall name is strong in the region today.
ISADORE CHRISTOPHER
Here’s another early settler whose name lives on today, though as a place name and not through descendants. Christopher Creek is named for this Frenchman who settled on it in the 1880s. At the time, the water body was referenced as “East Fork of Tonto” on maps. Christopher’s place was burned out during Indian attacks in the 1880s, during which he was thought to have been dead after a burned carcass was found. (It turned out to be that of a bear that Christopher had left hanging there.) Christopher established the CI brand before eventually moving out of the area after 1900. OTHERS
There are others that can be mentioned as well. The Azbills and “old man” Starr are linked with Star Valley. Bill McDonald, James Callaghan, the Hises, and many others can be connected with Payson. Pine and surrounding area has others, like Price Nelson and Davey Gowan. The fact is that many folks had an impact. While these are all men that happened to be recorded by history, the women around them also played an important role. The Daughters of Gila County Pioneers have published some tremendous books that focus solely on those great women. For more information, I suggest picking up a copy of “Rim Country History,” which is available at the Rim Country Museum in Payson. Michael F. Anderson’s “A Place in the Land, the Settlement of Pine, Arizona: 1878-1900” is a good book on that area and the Pine-Strawberry Museum has some wonderful displays on that area.
TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH | PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D.
Not all chest pain comes from the heart DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am a 38-yearold woman who has a very stressful job. It is also very well-paying, so I don’t want to give it up. I think it might be giving me chest pain. The pain comes and goes unpredictably. Sometimes I am just sitting at my desk, and I get a squeezing sensation in my chest. At other times, I had been hurrying around. I have had several EKGs, been examined by three doctors, had a stress test and a radioactive stress test. The doctors say my heart is healthy, and the chest pain could come from stress. In speaking with people I trust, I have been told to have a heart catheterization. What do you think? — P.A. ANSWER: None of your three doctors told you that. Don’t you think they might
know more than your friends? You have to be guided by advice given to you by those who have had experience in assessing people’s complaints. There’s no pattern to your chest pain. Heart pain, in contrast, causes chest pain when a person is physically active. That pain goes when the person rests. Your kind of pain is not suggestive of a heart disorder. Your doctors have told you that your heart is healthy. You have had EKGs, stress tests and even a radioactive stress test. Those tests would have disclosed a heart problem if you had one. Furthermore, you are only 38 years old — not an age for heart problems to occur. You mention no family history of heart trouble at early ages.
With a catheterization, a thin, pliable tube is inched from a groin blood vessel to the site where the heart arteries are found. There, dye is injected so doctors can visualize the health of heart arteries. The doctors can spot any obstructions, like cholesterol buildup, in those arteries. It’s an amazing test. However, complications can arise from any procedure that invades the body. When the detection of heart disease can be accomplished in no other way, information from a catheterization is justified. In your case, it’s not. Stress is the most likely cause of your chest pain. Coronary artery disease is the No. 1 cause of death in most of the world’s countries. The booklet on that subject explains
in detail its symptoms and its treatments. To order a copy, write: Dr. Donohue — No. 101W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

The Rim Country Celts will present the event for the Elks Lodge. The group organized in July 2011 following the Tartan Day event in April at East West Exchange. There are now about 45 members and the group has become affiliated with the Irish Culture and Learning Center of Phoenix and is a 501 c3.
ST. PATRICK’S EVENTS Celebrating the Irish in us all With my last name, plus the fact that my mother’s maiden name is Odell (no apostrophe) and my grandmother was a Malone before she became a McQuerrey, chances are I can find some roots deep in the Irish sod. So, celebrating St. Patrick’s Day is something I do with delight every year (at least in my heart). Whether you can claim real Irish roots or not, you are invited to a big blowout for St. Patrick at the Payson Elks Lodge with a dinner and show Saturday, March 17. This is a benefit and is open to Elks members and their guests. The meal, a seated affair being planned for about 200, will feature corned beef, cabbage, potatoes and carrots, plus sweet scones. Cocktails will be served at 5:30 p.m., with dinner at 6 p.m. and the show at 6:30 p.m. There will be a program on Saint Patrick by Father William “Bill” Gyure, Catholic priest. Entertainment will be Celtic music by the group Cinnamon Twist, featuring Anne James, Jennifer Baltz and Larry Brasen. They will
have their first album, Sobhlasta, for sale at the event. It is a collection of Gaelic songs, Anne said. Cinnamon Twist was organized in November 2011 when Larry joined the group then known as Anne and Jen. Anne has been playing around the Rim Country for a while now, and with her husband, Jim Eichberger, has owned and operated three music stores. They currently have Main Street Guitars and Gifts at 616 N. Beeline Hwy., Payson, next to Wolf Den Espresso and Deli in the Swiss Village shops. She began her journey in music while in high school. Anne first learned to play fundamentals in 1968. It was not until a decade later she began a serious study of the instrument. She learned from other musicians, listening to records, attending concerts and buying sheet music. Anne said the major influences in her music have been Elizabeth Cotton, a finger picker; Mary Travers of Peter, Paul and Mary fame, Mississippi John Hart, Doc Watson and Dougie McLaine. In addition to being part of Cinnamon Twist, Anne is a member of the three-part harmony group, The Artichoke Sisters, which started in 1998. They sing and play in Phoenix or wherever people are interested in hearing them. Anne has recorded seven albums and credits Billy Ichida of Junction 87 and John Carpino with producing
some of her albums with such great sound and production values. The tickets to the St. Patrick’s event are $15 in advance and may be purchased at the bar or contact Lloyd Gibson at (575) 649-5015. At the door, admission for the dinner and entertainment is $20 per person and $5 for entertainment only. The Rim Country Celts will present the event for the Elks Lodge. The group organized in July 2011 following the Tartan Day event in April at East West Exchange. “We started with Anne and Jim and Paty Henderson,” said Lloyd Gibson, president of the group. There are now about 45 members and the group has become affiliated with the Irish Culture and Learning Center of Phoenix and is a 501 c3. “From the turnout at Tartan Day (about 900 over the course of the day) there seemed to be a great interest in Celtic culture around the Rim, but there was no organization to latch on to,” Lloyd said. “All that have come to it have been looking for something to hold onto,” he said. Education is the main focus of the group — helping members find out about Celtic culture and traditions. Since organizing last July, the Rim Country Celts have had a Ceilidh Oct. 1, with about 300 people attending over the course of the day; and a Burns Night in CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

RIM REVIEW • MARCH 14, 2012
Mary “Mare” Lavan’s functional stoneware pottery is rooted in nature with a modern flair.
Georgianne Smolenski’s fantastic creations of weavings can be seen at the Payson Art League studio tour on May 4, 5, 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Rim Country a magnet for artists BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR
The Rim Country is a magnet for many, all with a vast array of reasons for wanting to make this place their home. So, it is no surprise it has drawn an untold number of artists into its embrace of scrub oak, ponderosa pines, free flowing creeks, deep mysterious canyons and seemingly unending vistas. More than 20 of those artists, members of the Payson Art League, will invite residents and visitors into their studios during the annual ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour May 4, 5 and 6. Jan Ransom, a longtime member of PAL, is organizing the 2012 event. Over the next several weeks, The Rim Review will introduce readers to the artists participating in the event. This edition has profiles on Sue Jones, Mary Lavan, Georgianne Smolenski, Jim Strong and Forrest Wellington. SUE JONES
Jim Strong’s talent and interest in his subjects show through in his oil paintings of ranchers, Western scenery, Native Americans and European street scenes.
Born with a brush in her hand, Sue Jones began drawing and painting at an early age, mostly in oils. More than 30 years ago she was introduced to china painting and found her niche. She loves it because many pieces are functional as well as decorative. Although drawn to a Victorian style, her subject matter is endless. She has taught classes and seminars many years, and matched more than 200 shades for antique lamps. Sue’s work has been shipped throughout the world and can be seen locally at Granny’s Attic Antiques and at her home studio in Payson. Publications that have featured her work

include International Porcelain Art Teachers, Inc. and The China Decorator magazines. MARY LAVAN
Mary “Mare” Lavan is a studio potter living and creating in the mountain hamlet of Pine, Ariz. Her functional stoneware pottery is rooted in nature with a modern flair. With a wide-ranging style, Mare often incorporates natural elements in her hand-thrown pieces. Integrating computer-altered images in her CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

signature work she bridges her high-tech background with her art. Mare also has an extensive collection of antique textile blocks that she often uses to add texture to her pieces. Mare’s work will be available during the Payson Art League ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour. Just Mare Pottery can also be found online at JustMare.Etsy.com and in galleries. GEORGIANNE SMOLENSKI
What do dog hair, llama, soy and bamboo have in common? They are all woven into fabric ... nothing ordinary in the tool kit for hand woven wearable art expert Georgianne Smolenski. Bamboo is an extremely fast growing and renewable resource and provides plenty of food for the Panda, wherever he might be living, either in China or surprisingly, Bisbee, Ariz., where bamboo grows prolifically. Hemp is legal! Yes, it is — as far as manufacturing yarn. Weaving has come full circle — from the earliest woven baskets to clothing made of “cloth” woven from whatever grows in a field or along a creek. Everyone wants to “go green” and weavers like Georgianne have been doing it forever. Georgianne’s fantastic creations of weavings can be seen at the Payson Art League studio tour on May 4, 5, 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Watch for the upcoming details and tour guide. JIM STRONG
Jim Strong was raised in Grand Junction, Colo. Ever since he was a young boy, Jim has had a love of art, Native American Indians and the West. His talent and interest in his subjects show through in his oil paintings of ranchers, Western scenery, Native Americans and European street scenes. Jim graduated from the prestigious Art Center School in Los Angeles, Calif. in 1961, with a Bachelor’s of Professional Arts degree in illustration. After graduation, Jim worked for North American Aviation — Autonetics in Placentia, Calif. as an illustrator. After moving to Arizona, he worked for Brush & Color in Paradise Valley doing architectural renderings for Ramada Inns. He also created illustrations for Motorola, AiResearch, Sperry, Cudahy, Arizona Tourism, Spreckles Sugar and Courtesy Chevrolet. In early 1967, Jim worked as head instructor for the Scottsdale School of Art. After realizing that he enjoyed teaching, he founded

the Jim Strong Art School, where he taught oil painting to hundreds of students for 33 years in Scottsdale. In 1999, Jim retired and sold the school. Now that Jim is retired he has more time to create his own Western oil paintings. Jim is currently working for the Gila Community College in Payson as a part-time faculty member teaching oil painting. A member of the Payson Art League, he displays his work at the studio tour in May and the fall show in November. His work can currently be viewed at his studio and home on Gibson Ranch, Payson, Ariz. and online at Western Artist Jim Strong at www.youtube.com/ user/PaysonArtLeague or at www.wdranch-az.com. FORREST WELLINGTON
Forrest Wellington is a gifted wood sculptor and has won many awards and competitions over the years for his wood sculptures. In recent years he has branched out into painting in oils and acrylics as well as working in pastels. He incorporates a sense of humor along with keen observational skills and experience gained from more than 40 years as a veterinarian. He likes to make his works “tell a story.” Many of his themes have a Western motif, while others are of a universal nature and appeal. He is an active member of the Payson Art League. Forrest and his intriguing work can be seen at the Payson Art League ’Neath the Rim Studio Tour May 4, 5 and 6. To learn more about the tour, contact Jan Ransom at (928) 4688593.

have to give up TV or use of your computer. We always made sure we found a seat in the theater each evening so as not to miss the live entertainment, which is put together in France and features the best Vegas type entertainment I have yet seen on any cruise ship. Although the entertainment is included in your cruise fare, it is like enjoying the best of Las Vegas shows each evening and not paying $125 extra per person to view them. Cruising remains the best vacation value today. Remember, 90 percent of your vacation is paid up-front before you leave home because it includes your meals onboard, all entertainment, and lodging. Your stateroom is made up each morning and you enjoy fresh towels each day. I get into these details because some of you don’t think you want to cruise. I hope some of today’s comments may change that attitude. On our MSC cruise we also enjoyed having five Baseball Greats on-board. They were: Stan Bahsen, Jessie Barfied, Cookie Rojas, Randy Hundley and Gary Peters. In several sessions they spun interesting stories about their lives while playing major league baseball. They also signed photos and baseballs for those who wanted then. We brought home a signed ball for grandson John, who is 9, and he was ecstatic. During some of the days at sea Norma and I enjoyed sitting on the pool deck in an area that displayed and served real Italian Gelato. Yummy! Where did we cruise to? After two wonderful, restful days at sea we docked in one of the Caribbean favorites, St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. We had visited here several times in the past, so didn’t take any shore tours. We did, however, take a taxi into the main part of town, which remains loaded with shops of all variety and enjoyed a nice lunch at the Green House, located at the waterfront. Afterward we taxied back to the pier and purchased a few gifts to take
to family back home. We then returned to the MSC Poesia and sat on our balcony facing the town and yacht harbor and relaxed in the beautiful 78-degree afternoon temperatures. The next morning we docked in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Here, Norma and I booked a tour to visit the El Yunque Rain Forrest. This is a four-hour excursion that takes you past wonderful palm lined beaches and heads into the Puerto Rican rain forest climbing to 3,600 feet where the plants, trees and flowers sparkle in the higher altitude and cooler temperatures. Later we returned to San Juan and had lunch across from our ship’s pier at the Sheraton Hotel’s Chicago Burger outside restaurant. We then returned to our ship and again sat on the balcony until the ship sailed out of the picturesque harbor, past 600-year-old forts and palaces from another era. Our third and last port of call was Nassau in the Bahamas. The MSC Poesia docked right in the middle of town, so we walked off the ship and decided to take a tour around the island. This included the town of Nassau, which now has about 200,000 people and over to one of the star resorts of the area — Atlantis. This is a complete large resort, which offers several activities for the entire family in a deluxe setting as well as one of the largest casinos in the Atlantic and Caribbean. We walked around this sprawling place for awhile before our driver took us back to the docks so we could once again board our beautiful ship. This was our last night aboard ship and we were treated to an amazing last supper with all the trimmings as well as a fantastic Broadway show in the theater. The next morning we had docked once again in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. and we left the ship and transferred to the airport for our flight home. It was a perfect trip on a perfect ship. Try MSC sometime. Their 13 luxury ships cruise the Mediterranean, Baltic, Near East, Transatlantic and Caribbean.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Put your restlessness to good use by indulging the Arian love of exploring new places and seeking new challenges. There also could be a new romance waiting to be “discovered.” TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A surprise message from someone in your past could lead to a long-awaited reunion with a once-close friend. Also, look for a workplace problem to be resolved in your favor. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your self-confidence is rising, and that should be a significant factor in helping you adjust to a new social situation, as well as adjusting to a series of changes in the workplace. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Turnabout could be lots of fun when someone who previously accepted your tender, loving care without question now suggests that he or she wants to start taking care of you. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Put the lessons you learned from past disappointments to work in planning your future. The way ahead opens to opportunities “purrfectly” suited to the adventurous Lion. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a good time to renew contacts with family members and/or old friends who somehow slipped off your personal viewing screen in recent years. Travel also is favored. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Most problems surrounding that recent personal situation have been resolved, and that means you should move on to other things that are important to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Spend this weekend recharging your physical and spiritual energies. When you return to your workaday world, you’ll be ready to take on that new project. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Be careful how you advise a troubled friend. Even your wise counsel could be misunderstood. Better to suggest that he or she seek professional help. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Family problems once again dominate and, once again, everyone seeks your guidance in these matters. Later, you can indulge in some much-needed relaxation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Some mixed signals create confusion in the workplace. Best advice: Ask for explanations before you attempt to deal with any of these matters on your own. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A patch of roiling water in the workplace could be threatening, but stay the course and you’ll soon be clear of it. Then go out and have a great time with loved ones. BORN THIS WEEK: Your extraordinary leadership qualities mark you as someone people can turn to for guidance in difficult situations. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.
