enemies attacks. We in America would call our strongholds military bases and embassies In Biblical times these strongholds were ever present, especially in the Old Testament. Wherever there was a war, one would find some type of stronghold and others trying to tear them down. These forts and fortresses were made out of a variety of materials and resources. And just like there are many different types and styles of natural strongholds the same is true of spiritual strongholds. THE BAD AND THE UGLY
Depending on the source of power, spiritual strongholds can be good or bad. Let’s talk about the bad first… How is your soul? Or should I ask who has your soul? Is it captivated by the cares of the world, lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, pride of life? Is it imprisoned by evilness and demonic forces? Is it paralyzed by fear due to dramatic event, emotional hurts, past mistakes? What power has hold of you so strong that it refuses to let go? What can have such a tight hold over you that it shackles and enslaves you? Perhaps an addiction, a behavior, a thought, action… Something you cannot shake THE GOOD AND GREAT NEWS
God is our stronghold, an everpresent help in times of need! The Bible declares that a good stronghold the very best and highest fort, fortress and high wall of protection is God.

Nahum one of the prophets of the southern kingdom. Prophesying in his area of Elkosh between Jerusalem and Gaza declares God’s power saying, “The LORD is good! A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.” Just like Nahum trusted in God during this real time of war, in the same like fashion we can trust God today to be our stronghold when wars stir up in spiritual battle for our souls, in our daily situations and life’s struggles. He is faithful to protect us from our enemies, ourselves, and from the ways of this world. Jehovah Nissi means Banner in Hebrew. Which means God is our banner, our flag our signal pole. We can look up high and with knowledge sight, see Christ sitting on the right side of God. Then our comfort comes. Just like when I saw the U.S. flag waving high above our embassy. I was walking in a foreign country, but I could take comfort. For those who call themselves
followers of Christ, you know that God is faithful to His word. In the past, currently, in the future and for eternity. God is strong, mighty and full of holy power. I seek to hold onto Him as He holds onto me. We can proudly exclaim with great joy! “The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Psalm 18:2 Self-evaluation What stronghold are you suffering from? Would you turn to the only one to give you deliverance, comfort and steadfastness? You can turn from those strongholds and in exchange cling to the true Stronghold. Look up! Look high! And you will see Jehovah Nissi our Stronghold. © Copyright 2012 Simone Lake. All Rights Reserved. © Copyright 2012 Deep Roots in Christ Ministries. All Rights Reserved

road. The headline in the Sept. 12, 1903 Arizona Republican said that, “The Reno Trail as Hard to Keep “Fixed” as a St. Louis Alderman.” This article was written at a time when improving the Reno Road had been put out as an alternative to the Apache Trail road that would end up being built to Roosevelt Dam. It cites the opinion of engineer J.C. Dobbins in saying that, “the present socalled road is in reality only a trail, and that it could never be made into a permanent road except by keeping a corps of men constantly employed in its repair.” The Reno Road was the precursor to the Bush Highway, which was the precursor of today’s Beeline Highway. While the route has been modified and improved, much of the grand scenery still exists. (Old Camp Reno sits on the east side of Mount Ord, whereas the Beeline Highway runs the west side.) Let’s remember the old road with this clip from the April 29, 1897 Arizona Republican, “You may have seen the Grand Canyon, the Casa Grande ruins and all the other historical places of interest in the territory, but if you have never ridden over the old Fort Reno road your travels have been
very tame indeed. At Reno pass you are not very far below Four Peaks, and the cool breeze blowing directly from the snow on the peaks is almost chilling to one coming out of the Salt River valley. Up here the trees are just taking on new leaves, the spring flowers are in bloom and the ocotillo with its brilliant red flowers adds to the picturesqueness of nature’s magnificent garden of flowers on this mountain crest. But if you fall in love with nature at the pass you fall out again before you get down into Tonto Basin. If you do not fall out you are living under a lucky star. For three miles the road winds down the steep mountain over huge boulders. It is marvelous how the horses maintain their balance on these rocks. Sometimes a large rock will move with the weight of the horse and start the other loose rocks moving down the road. Evidences of unwritten disasters are apparent all along the road in broken wheels, splintered wagon poles and portions of vehicles of every description. If you have never gone over Fort Reno road your travels in Arizona have been too prosy to be interesting.”

It takes about a week of travel passing through just about every type of terrain you can imagine. You travel past major and minor cities, towns and villages. I have talked to people who have made this trip and they enjoyed every minute of it. Some told me the train equipment was clean; others said it was rather dirty. Who do you believe? You would want to book a Pullman compartment in first class and would probably have to share with others.

RIM REVIEW • MAY 1, 2013
COVER STORY | TERESA MCQUERREY

Ruth Overton is one of 30 artists who will participate in the annual 'Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour. Overton and others invite residents of the Rim Country and visitors into their studios to see where they create their wonderful work.
’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour Rim Country artists invite the world into their lives Once a year a select group of artists invite the world into their lives. These artists are the juried members of the annual Payson Art League ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour, presented this year from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., May 3, 4 and 5. More than 30 Rim Country artists will be participating at 18 different studios in Payson and Pine.
The event, a self-guided through a specially produced brochure, takes participants throughout Payson and Pine. So, the tour also provides an opportunity to see some of the area’s less visible attractions – the pretty neighborhoods sprinkled among the hills of the Rim Country. The works of the 30 artists juried into the show encompass a galaxy of media, from oil, watercolor and acrylic paintings to photography, charcoals and sculpture to jewelry, fiber art, clay and ceramic, wood, scratchboard art and mixed media. In most cases the artists will team with one or two others to share their work in a single studio display. That gives participants a chance to view multiple artists without multiple miles of travel time. Each year one artist from the group is selected to be the showcase member of the tour. Ruth Overton is the
2013’ Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour featured artist. Overton has been part of the artistic scene in the Rim Country since 1988. She makes her home on Fort McDonald Hill, overlooking the Payson Golf Course and will have her studio open for the tour. Ruth Overton and her friend, Bettie Wilson, were living in Kansas City, Mo., when Wilson asked Overton along to a drawing class. Overton thought, “I can’t draw a straight line.” Wilson, a preacher’s wife, said, “Balderdash. Just come along.” And who can argue with a preacher’s wife? “So we went,” Overton recalled. Overton took drawing classes for a year, then moved into watercolor for several years before moving into oil. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Overton’s artistic Rim legacy goes to 1988 FROM PAGE 6
After 13 years of taking classes, Overton took several workshops from a well-known artist. “It was like starting all over,” Overton recalled. Classes started at hello — “this is a brush.” “I had started in the middle,” Overton said. The class taught her how to mix color, brighten colors, and make them stand out. Today, Overton takes pictures and files them away in one of her four or five file cabinets that she uses to organize her pictures. “It’s like a jigsaw puzzle,” Overton said about picking elements from photos she wants to combine in a painting. “Very rarely do I just take one photo and that will
be it.” When taking photographs, Overton emphasizes capturing the areas of light and dark more than she does color. Colors are more easily altered than shades, she says. “I’m more of a colorist than anything else,” she says. Overton will share her studio space with John Finkey of Apache Junction, who works in jewelry and welded sculpture. The brochures for the tour were included in the Tuesday, April 30 edition of the Payson Roundup, the Rim Review’s parent publication. Overton’s work is primarily of her incredible iris collection – which she cultivated – and area landscaped.
Let imagination be your guide as you map adventure FROM PAGE 5
The compartments can carry six passengers. The beds are stacked three high on either side of the compartment. There is a sliding glass door into the passageway. The train carries a dining car, which also has available liquor for your consumption. At the various stops you are allowed to walk about the station area and look at the various sellers of trinkets and food items. Be careful, the food is not FDA approved! You’ll find the lower the train number, the fewer stops it will make. Consider this trip in the summer or early fall periods. Snows fall early in a portion of the route. The rail fares vary by time and month of travel and change frequently. My advice is to consult a travel agent familiar with Trans-Siberian Railway travel and they will be able to give you a lot of advice and information. Are you in the mood to visit Cuba? Most Americans have not been able to see the island located so close to our Southeast coast for almost 50 years. When I was a teenager (100 years ago) my mother and I were enjoying a vacation in Miami Beach, Fla. during a spring break. We saw a brochure in a rack in the lobby of our hotel describing an overnight trip to Havana. It was priced right, so we booked. We flew from Miami to Havana, which took about an hour in the prop days of flight. It was a DC-6. When we left the aircraft we boarded a bus and our tour of the city commenced. This was my first exposure to a foreign country. I was probably 15. Mostly I remember the dirt and grime; the poor people and shabby looking buildings. After visiting several sights and most of the major areas of Havana I turned to my mother and said, “let’s go back to Miami tonight.” She agreed! As soon as possible we booked a return flight to Miami and arrived back at our hotel that night. Havana looked much like something you would find in many parts of Mexico and I was not prepared for the difference. Of course, today I know better. I doubt Cuba has changed much since then for reasons you are aware. Few Americans have traveled there since the Communists took over. Today a

few are allowed to enter on a People-toPeople program. The Grand Circle Foundation has been granted a license from the Office of Foreign Assets Control to offer this program of exploring unique historical and cultural aspects of Cuba. There are three programs to choose from and include air to and from Miami, all accommodations, most meals, transportation by motor coach and any internal flights and a full schedule of People-to-People exchange meetings. You’ll be traveling in a small tour of just 12-20 participants accompanied by a Foundation representative and an English speaking Cuban guide. If you are interested in securing more information, phone 1-885-423-3443. Spaces won’t last long so act soon if you want more information. One of the more beautiful and interesting portions of the world is Croatia. It was once part of Yugoslavia before it was broken up into three separate nations. You would sail on a private yacht from
Dubrovnik to Split. The yacht has a fully licensed skipper and crew for the 8 days of adventure. The yacht is equipped with five twin double cabins, three shared bathrooms and two showers. Yes, it’s a real sailboat! Your food onboard is included in the fare. The boat is 50 feet in length. The emphasis will be on connecting with the people of the area ashore. The trip begins in Dubrovnik. You sail the coast during the night and the next morning you’ll view the tempting beaches at the shoreline. You’ll be supplied with a Kayak as you paddle your way through gorgeous inlets and explore the caves of Korcula. You will have some beach time during some of the days visiting Mijet, Korcula, Vis to Hvar and ending in Split. Much of this area looks like it did 600 years ago. It’s fun and interesting to stroll the winding brick roads through the towns and snooping in the shops. This is another trip you will not forget! Be sure to try the home baked bread. I did in a small restaurant in Kotor some years ago.
I sampled the bread, which was brought first to the table. It was so good I ate three loafs before they brought my main dish. It remains the best bread I have ever eaten. The local food is delicious. If you are interested in more information contact Grand Circle Travel in Vancouver, B.C. They will send you a brochure. www.gadventures.com/trips/ croatia-sailing-dubrovnik-to-split. Does Tibet sound interesting? It should. You can start in Katmandu and explore the temples of Pashupatinath and Bodnath. Then take a morning flight to Gonggar, Tibet and drive to Tsendang and visit Lakhang. Then take a ferry across Tibet’s great river, the Yarlung Tsang Po; to Samye Monastery and Lhasa. You have the opportunity to visit the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Sera and Drepung Monasteries. There will be free time on your own to do some gift buying. Also, you will be driven across high altitude moorland to New Tingri for a visit to Rongbuk Monastery and visit a Mount Everest Base Camp. There will be opportunities to view Himalayan peaks for your photography. You leave Tibet and cross into Nepal to Katmandu. Contact www.highlights of Tibet/Adventure center.com. The tour is priced in the neighborhood of $3,500 per person depending on the date of travel selected. If you like to stay in good shape and enjoy biking how about a California Coast Biking Tour between Monterey and Santa Barbara? On the way you can sample award-winning wines as you drink in the beauty of the Central California coast. You will bike through thrilling country of majestic redwoods, rugged cliffs and crashing waves. Go to www.backroads.com/tripsBBSI/california-coast-biking tour. The trip is 6 days, 5 nights and includes most meals. Prices vary but in the neighborhood of $3,300 per person. Included is an experienced guide. These are only a small example of adventure travel opportunities that are available. Again, consult an experienced travel agent for more ideas and information. They can also make the bookings for you at no extra charge. Be safe out there!

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Taking advice isn’t always easy for self-assured Rams and Ewes who think they know what’s best. But it wouldn’t hurt to listen to what close colleagues have to say. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You know how to balance life’s practical aspects with the poetic. This gives you a special edge this week in both your professional endeavors and your personal life. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Focus on keeping a balance between your home-related activities and your workplace responsibilities. Be mindful of both without obsessing over one or the other. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A change in plans is likely as you discover more facts about a possible commitment. Continue to ask questions and, if you’re not sure about the answers, demand proof. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Be careful not to let that Leonine pride keep you from seeking wise, experienced counsel before making an important decision. A family member once again seeks your help. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) That surge of Virgo energy drives you to take on more work assignments. Be careful you don’t overdo it, or you might find yourself overdone: i.e., burned out. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Your decision to be upfront with colleagues on a touchy matter causes some consternation at first. But in the end, your honesty wins their trust and admiration. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) As in the past, someone again wants to share a secret with you, knowing it will be safe. But do you really want to be this person’s confidante? Think about it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) As one of nature’s straight shooters, you seek to correct misconceptions about a project. Do so, of course, but without giving away too much too soon. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Creative pursuits continue to be strong in the gifted Goat’s aspect. New friendships can come from sharing these experiences with like-minded art aficionados. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Resolve lingering grumblings over your way of doing things by keeping your mind open to suggestions while continuing to show how your plans will work. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) The perceptive Piscean might find that changing course in midstream isn’t as workable as it would seem. Explore this option carefully before making a decision. BORN THIS WEEK: Your willingness to share your love of life’s good things brings joy to many, including, of course, yourself. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

Start the day right with protein at breakfast Starting the day right with a good breakfast helps set the tone for your day. In fact, studies show that kids who eat breakfast have better scores on math, reading and standardized tests; are better able to pay attention; and have fewer absences and incidences of tardiness, compared to breakfast skippers. But is your breakfast the best it can be? Experts recommend 20 to 30 grams of protein at each meal, and while breakfast is typically lower in protein than other meals, it’s a particularly important time to include protein in your diet — to help you get the right start to your day. In fact, when you have your protein can be just as important as how much you have, and research suggests that spreading protein intake throughout the day — rather than just at lunch or dinner — can optimize how your body uses it, and that means making sure you include enough protein at breakfast. A protein-packed breakfast can also help you feel “healthy full” so you stave off mid-morning cravings and can stick to healthier eating throughout the day. Help your whole family start the day right and include protein in your nutritious breakfast. Try these tips to maximize protein in the AM: — Make your morning oatmeal with milk instead of water. Top with almonds for extra protein, too. — Include a glass of milk with your morning meal. An 8-ounce glass of milk has 8 grams of quality protein. — Make your own smoothie and choose your favorite frozen fruit. — Grab a latte, instead of black cof-
fee, and pair it with peanut butter toast and some fruit for a balanced meal. — Whip up a bowl of cottage cheese topped with fruit and honey. — Create a breakfast BLT with a whole grain muffin, lean turkey bacon and lettuce and tomato.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Husband thrashes about during sleep BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. 2013 NORTH AMERICA SYND., INC.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My 73-year-old husband has, in the past year, been jerking during his sleep. His movements are quite wild at times. He has fallen out of bed three times during his “fighting” dreams. He dreams he is in a fight at work, playing football or shooting things. Just last night, it was killing mice. He jerks with his arms and legs. I don’t attempt to wake him, as one time he was on the verge of striking me. I did yell his name three times, and he finally woke up. He has had two sleep tests and was told he has “half sleep apnea.” What does that mean? He takes no sleeping aids. I have never heard that such movements are a sign of sleep apnea. — D.S. ANSWER: A good bet is that your husband has a condition called periodic limb movements of sleep. For many, such movements are bending of the big toe and ankle. For others, it’s jerking of the legs and arms. Most often the person doesn’t waken and has no recollection of what went on during the night. The bed partner and the condition of the blankets give testimony to what occurred during sleep. If the person doesn’t have daytime fatigue, then this disorder isn’t considered a sleep problem for him or her. It is for the one who shares the bed. Sometimes periodic limb movements of sleep occur with another problem, restless leg syndrome. That’s a creepy-crawly sensation in the legs that comes on in the evening when sitting or in bed. The person is compelled to get up and move around to quell the feeling. A warm bath before going to bed might calm your husband’s movements. Decreasing the amount of caffeine he drinks and doing the same for all forms of tobacco could bring nocturnal peace for you and him. If the situation doesn’t clear, then Mirapex or Requip, two Parkinson’s disease medicines, can put an end to the nighttime martial arts. Do tell his doctor about this. Periodic limb movements of sleep are, at times, associated with iron deficiency. I have no idea what “half sleep apnea” means. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Every now and then, my eyelid twitches. I don’t think it’s due to me being tired, because it can happen when I am wide awake in the morning. And I don’t think it’s due to stress — I love my work. Furthermore, I don’t drink any caffeinated beverages. What do you think is the significance of this? — H.R. ANSWER: Nearly everyone has had a twitchy eyelid at some time in life. It’s not a sign of illness. It’s not something that lasts for any length of time. Fatigue, stress and caffeinated beverages all have been implicated as causes. But most people with a twitchy lid are like you; they have and do none of these things. A washcloth soaked in warm water and placed on the involved, closed lid for a few minutes generally can stop the twitching. Or gentle massage of the involved, closed lid also can end it. If it continues and lasts for longer periods, then a doctor has to be consulted. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.
