About the author After retiring in 1991 as a United Methodist pastor, Stanley C. Brown continued his avocation of research and writing regional history. For 30 years his family had a summer home on the upper East Verde River, which stimulated his fascination with the prehistoric and historic stories of the Rim Country. He and his wife Ruth made their permanent home in Payson in 1993 and for 12 years he was the Town of Payson’s official historian. He served a number of years on the board of directors for the Northern Gila County Historical Society, including a time as its president, and developed the first historical archive for the Rim Country Museum. Since 1996 he has written weekly and bi-weekly columns for the Payson Roundup and has had numerous papers published in the Journal of Arizona History. His books and a historical novel are available at the museum. In 2004 the Browns moved to Arizona’s first territorial capital, Prescott, where Stan continues his research and writing. The Rim Country Museum is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday. An admission is charged. The museum and the neighboring replica of the Zane Grey Cabin are in Green Valley Park, at the end of Historic West Main in Payson.

Rim Country gardens take on many shapes and personalities, reflecting the creativity and interest of the residents who design them.
Get a look at how Rim Country gardens grow Once you catch your breath after all the ceremonies and festivities of the Memorial Day weekend, make plans to tour area gardens Saturday, May 31. The Rim Area Garden Club is hosting its annual Garden Walk from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. This year’s selections offer a variety of flowers, shrubbery and garden themes, as well as organic vegetables. At each site, members of the Garden Club will greet visitors to guide them through the garden. The tour this year features two sites in Payson; two in Pine; and two in Strawberry. Look for the “Green Thumb” signs to direct you to the participants’ homes. In Payson Sassy Mizell, 1005 E. Phoenix St., and Quita Hartfiel, 602 W. Solitude Circle, open their gardens to visitors. Mizell has created a relaxing, park-like setting where flowers mingle with vegetables in unique fashion. Raised vegetable
plots and hanging baskets are special touches. Hartfiel has flagstone paths to guide visitors around this shady, quaint, Europeanstyle garden, which features fountains, a gazebo and many creative touches. Pine residents Rosemary and Jim Stark, 3351 Southard, and Linda Oyas, 3441 Foothill Road, welcome guests to their garden creations. Spacious, wooded and serene describe the Starks’ lush, Japanese-themed landscape. Seating areas nestled among a variety of colorful trees and interesting, whimsical art pieces make this a “must see” garden. Fun and games abound in Oyas’ back yard. There are entertainment areas for young and old alike, including a children’s play area, horseshoes and a giant chessboard, plus a fire pit for relaxing evenings.

Band of Brothers event supports veterans BY ALEXIS BECHMAN ROUNDUP STAFF REPORTER
Everyday, 22 veterans commit suicide. It is a shocking number and one that would likely be higher if there were a more accurate reporting system. The vast majority are males and in their early 60s. Organizers of the first Band of Brothers Payson Music Festival are on a mission to raise awareness about this epidemic. On Memorial Day weekend, May 23-25, more than two dozen bands will convene at the Payson Event Center for a three-day music festival. The goal is to support veterans, raise awareness, provide a platform for veterans to network, partner with veteran groups and raise money to implement a Crisis Hotline And Intervention Network (CHAIN), a call center run by Veterans for Veterans, Veterans Anonymous and support other veteran causes. All money raised
stays in Arizona. The event is the work of two veterans and a “hippie” who met by chance in Arizona. Retired Capt. Cloyce Kelly, Sgt. Maj. of the Army Sam Register and “hippie” Roger Williams decided if no one else were going to do it, they would find a way to raise money for veteran suicide prevention and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Register, a Vietnam veteran, writes that he has battled with PTSD for the last 40 years. Kelly, the victim of Agent Orange, deals with a deteriorating spine that has left him with a pronounced limp. Despite physical challenges, Kelly still rides with the Hashknife Pony Express and raises funds for the Boy Scouts. Their mission is to provide veterans the opportunity to touch base with fellow vets, exchange ideas, eventually expanding the Band of Brothers festivals nationwide. Originally, the men planned to hold the inaugural event in Chino

Valley, but due to issues with the venue, had to find a new home. Kelly, familiar with Rim Country as a member of the Pony Express suggested Payson. “So they drove over and checked out our facility and fell in love with it,” said Cameron Davis with the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department. Town officials worked with the men and arranged everything at the event center. “This is a great event for a great cause,” Davis said. “It is geared to families and will be a great family event with all kinds of family activities.” Among the festivities will be

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
A WESTERN VACATION
If you don’t think you want to take a tour, or cruise on a ship or take in a big city for your next vacation, why not consider finding a temporary home on the range? More and more Americans are taking dude ranch vacations with the entire family. What exactly is a dude ranch? They each vary in size, scope, facilities and ani m a l population. Each one is KEN BROOKS quite unique. Most all offer generally good accommodations, tasty meals similar to those found in bed and breakfast homes and many have riding horses. All are located away from cities and in several Western states. Some dude ranches are more sophisticated than others and you will have to decide how out-back you wish to vacation. Ranch mornings begin rather early and to fully experience a true dude ranch you will have to arise quite early if you intend to collect the eggs, milk the cows and feed the cattle and horses. The ranchers will give you guidance and lessons on how to accomplish these chores. Of course, you don’t have to do any of these chores if you choose not to, but it is fun and interesting to “help” at least once or
twice. How long should you stay on one of these true ranches? Just a week may be enough the first time around.
When you arrive probably one of the first things that will occur is meeting the staff of the ranch and then you’ll be taken to your quarters to unpack. If you have any

special dietary needs they should be given to the ranch several days before arrival. A few of the activities that may interest you are: barbecues, birding, cattle drives, cowboy cookouts, dancing, falcon flying, pheasant hunts, overnight pack trips, fishing, swimming, white water rafting, wildlife viewing, wilderness exploration and more. To begin your dude ranch hunt, I suggest you contact The Dude Ranchers’ Association, which represents more than 100 of the best dude and guest ranches in the West.

CHAPTER 42: WATERWHEEL CAMPGROUND
The Waterwheel Campground is popularly known more for a nearby swimming hole and waterfall where Ellison Creek joins the East Verde River than it is for its waterwheel. The relic that lent its name to the place hides in the undergrowth, seen only by those who search for it. However, the place and the old wheel hide an interesting story. It begins with a fellow named James “Dave” Greer, who lived here while working a mining claim in the area. It was during the 1930s when the Great Depression had driven many desperate folks to become would-be miners. Those who sought to make such a living were many in the vicinity of Payson. Greer’s gold discovery was in the hill that sepaSTAN BROWN rates the Waterwheel Campground from the Second Crossing on the East Verde River. Dave Greer was a brother of former Payson Justice of the Peace Calvin Greer. He was an uncle of Oscar Greer and his sister Myrtle Warter, both Payson “old-timers.” Oscar recalled his youthful days along the East Verde when he and his sister lived with their dad Albert and an uncle Lon, William Alonzo Greer. Their home was a cabin downstream from the waterwheel, while Uncle Dave had built a two-story log cabin west and a little south of the waterwheel. It was an impressive house with a kitchen and a big living room, complete with a homemade Murphy bed that pulled down from the wall. Visiting family members slept upstairs. It was in 1932 when Oscar Greer and his sister were playing on the nearby hill when she caught her dress on a branch and fell. To their relief she had missed falling into an open mine shaft, long forgotten and covered with oak brush. They quickly reported their find to the Greer brothers, who cleared the top of the shaft and went down. At the bottom they found a tunnel, where some earlier miner had left a pick and shovel, a canteen and some dynamite. Best of all, they found gold stringers along the shaft waiting to be mined. They speculated that the Meadows family from nearby Whispering Pines (then called “Diamond Valley” by the Meadows) had developed this mine, but abandoned it after the 1882 Indian attack that killed two family members. It was from this mine that Greer now obtained gold to support his family. Oscar Greer remembered seeing a soda pop bottle full of gold nuggets, each about the size
of one’s little fingertip. Dave Greer processed his gold ore with a contraption worthy of the old Rube Goldberg cartoons. First he built a waterwheel down in the river. It powered a revolving rope, the pulley and rope attached to a cottonwood tree. He secured cut-down milk cans to the rope at intervals, and as the cans dipped into the water they were lifted, full, by the turning waterwheel. At the top, the water dumped into a funnel and then flowed through a pipe to an iron tank. The water gathered in the tank ran into a sluice box. Meanwhile Dave crushed the ore in a small stamp mill and placed it in the sluice box where corrugated ridges caught the heavier metal as the ore was washed along. The mill for crushing the ore was powered by another waterwheel, the one that remains today. Dave Greer brought water in an open flume, from the top of the box canyon. This was actually Ellison Creek water just before it reached the East Verde. The flume emptied into another flume, which channeled the water to the waterwheel. A college metalwork class in Phoenix had built that waterwheel. In the late 1940s the Greers were ready to retire and sold their claim to the mine and “campground” to Clifford Wright along with the cabin and mining equipment. Clifford’s brother, Grant L. Wright, also established a

mining claim at the site of the Second Crossing, where he built a small cabin on the flat and raised vegetables and fruit. This author remembers buying fresh garden produce and sweet corn from him, but today “city folk” crowd the area with weekend camps. Eventually Grant and Clifford Wright could no longer prove to the government that the production of gold validated their claim. The Forest Service then required them to abandon the sites. The cabin at the Second Crossing and the fruit trees were sold to a couple that moved it all to Gisela. The Wrights had kept the location of their gold mine a secret, and when they left, the shaft was filled and covered over. The Waterwheel Campground, snuggled between the First and Second Crossings on the Houston Mesa Road, has become a favorite camping spot for wilderness starved desert dwellers. The nearby box canyon has been the site of all too many deaths. The swimming hole is at the foot of a waterfall that comes down in two sections. There is a temptation to many for the thrill of jumping from the ledge into the pool below. Hidden rocks lie in wait to do a number on those foolish enough to jump. Over the past decades several persons have been killed and a number injured, requiring a helicopter rescue. At more than $15,000 for the rescue and ride out this becomes a pretty expensive jump. Early in September 2009 a forest fire, dubbed the Water Wheel Fire, burned nearly two square miles after starting opposite the campground. It was assumed to be started by a camper in the campgrounds where there are no improvements and camping has to be self-contained. As many as 700 people were evacuated from Whispering Pines to the north and Beaver Valley to the south, but volunteer and Forest Service firefighters, with help from a shift in the wind, saved those communities. The old waterwheel escaped unharmed, though rumors traveled that it had been burned. Knowing the story of this place might enable present-day hikers and campers to listen closely as the winds blow through the cottonwood trees and whisper what they saw years ago. SOURCES

AT THE MOVIES
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 FROM PAGE 4
for a diabolical purpose. However I can’t be too mad because of how they twisted the villains in “The Amazing Spider-Man 2,” gave each villain a good reason (through their eyes) to justify their actions. The appearances of Spider-Man and the bad guys was more comic book accurate than their origins. Combining appearances from the original comics and the ultimate comics, Sony uses these combinations to make their characters look epic. The most enjoyable scenes in this movie are the two battles between Spider-Man and Electro. These scenes are where the graphics really pop. Throughout the fight there are a few slow motion scenes. During these slow motions, you can see every strand of electricity in a bolt, as well as each individual piece of an object that had just exploded. Of course what really made these scenes intense was the music. The music in the background combines techno and dub-step (computer generated bass notes) to intensify the electricity factor of Electro. During the first battle, the song uses a vocoder (a synthesis system used to reproduce human speech) to simulate a hateful voice in Electro’s head that furthers his hatred of Spider-Man. “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” does have a mid-credit scene that is a quick preview for “X-Men Days of Future Past.” But wait, X-Men is Fox, and Spider-Man is Sony, why is their a preview for a Fox movie? The reason is director Marc Webb had a contract to make a movie for Fox after “The Amazing Spider-Man” (2012). Marc Webb blew this off so that he could make “The Amazing Spider-Man 2.” The only way Fox would let him do this is if he promoted their next movie for free. All together this movie was amazing, (pun intended). This is a good movie for all ages to see. In my opinion it is the best Spider-Man yet, and I encourage you to go and see it.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) There’s nothing an Aries Lamb likes less than having to tackle a humdrum task. But finding a creative way to do it can make all the difference. A more exciting time awaits you this weekend. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Finishing up a job on time leaves you free to enjoy your weekend without any Taurean guilt pangs. A romantic attitude from an unlikely source could take you by surprise. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Moving in a new career direction might be seen by some as risky. But if you have both the confidence to see it through and the facts to back you up, it could prove rewarding. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Holding back on a decision might be difficult, considering how long you’ve waited for this opportunity. But until you’re able to resolve all doubts, it could be the wiser course to take. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You still need to move carefully where financial matters are concerned. Better for the Lion to move slowly than pounce on a “promising” prospect that doesn’t keep its promises. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) A rejection of an idea you believe in can be upsetting. But don’t let it discourage you. Get yourself back on track and use what you’ve learned from the experience to try again. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) The early part of the week could find you looking to balance your priorities between your family obligations and your career responsibilities. Pressures begin to ease by week’s end. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) An associate’s problem could cause unavoidable delays in moving ahead with your joint venture. If so, use the time to look into another project you had previously set aside. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Although a financial problem could be very close to being resolved in your favor, it’s still a good idea to avoid unnecessary spending for at least a little while longer. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Support for some unwelcome workplace decisions begins to show up, and continues to build, so that by week’s end, the gregarious Goat is as popular as ever. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Congratulations. Deciding to attend a social function you might have earlier tried to avoid could turn out to be one of the best decisions you’ve made in a long time. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Getting into a new situation could prove to be a more difficult experience than you expected. Don’t hesitate to ask for advice in coping with some of the more irksome challenges. BORN THIS WEEK: Your strong sense of duty makes you a valued and trusted member of your community. Have you considered a career in law enforcement? © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
