This was the first and only Vista Dome train in Canada for many years. More recently, the train equipment was given a major refurbishment and brought up to date as to interiors and function. You can train travel in conventional coach or luxurious Pullman accommodations of private rooms for one, two and more passengers.

From here, you could book a tour to Niagara Falls, New York before returning home. This will be an unforgettable trip. Scenery, beauty and thrills everywhere.

his father’s number one helper. When Grady Harrison developed a trucking business, the first motorized supply service for the Rim Country, Audrie, age 12, rode as assistant to the driver on the run to Phoenix. It was before

the Bush Highway was developed and they followed the Apache Trail. That was so much closer than going by way of Globe. Audrie thought it was strange they stopped every half hour “to check the load,” until he discov-

ered the driver had “a bottle of hooch” hidden in the cargo. By the time they were perilously poised on Fish Creek Hill the driver was in a drunken stupor. The preteen Audrie pushed him over and took over the controls. He safely navigated the loaded truck down into Tonto Basin and on home, arriving about 2 o’clock in the morning. The drunken driver disappeared, never to return, and Grady was so impressed with his son’s ability he had him deliver the load of mining machinery to the Summit Mine that morning. From then on, Audrie became his father’s primary driver. He was paid fifty cents an hour and stated, “I was a rich man.” [2] It was a story he loved to tell the rest of his life. As a youth Audrie had the job of keeping the electric generators for Payson lubricated and running. His father had developed the town’s first electric service, and the increasingly large generators were housed in the Harrison Garage at McLane and Main. One of Audrie’s famous stories was about the traditional Saturday night dance. He said, “The dance started at 9 o’clock. By 8 o’clock everybody had their light bulb unplugged and lit their kerosene lamps so they could plug in their electric curling irons or flat irons. It loaded those two diesels up and the steam boiled off the top of them running red-hot. That’s why I never learned to dance. Every dance night I was down there keeping the engines going…”

Book review: ‘The Tale of Two Rivers’ by Stanley C. Brown REVIEWED BY ANDY MCKINNEY

Teresa McQuerrey/Roundup

Stan Brown signs copies of his new book, “The Tale of Two Rivers.”

The two rivers in the title of this work by former Payson Town Historian Stanley C. Brown refer to two streams familiar to Rim Country readers. The first part of the book brings us the multi-part story of the early pioneer settlement along and around the East Verde watershed. The second part of the book takes the reader on a geographic and historical tour of the Tonto Creek basin. Readers who live in this area will read with apt attention as familiar places, places where we have hiked, camped, fished or just driven by, are detailed from the first days of European settlement in the area. Also familiar are the names of the tenacious pioneers who braved isolation, poverty, rustlers and Apache Indian attacks to build the foundation of our current lives. Their great-grandchildren still live among and around us; we see them often. Stan Brown leaves us with a quote from a note left by Floyd Pyle on his cabin door: “Here is a message to neighbors and all travelers and tramps: When you’re going through this country

and come upon this camp, just make yourselves at home, friends, if I am not about. The door may not be open but the latchstring is always out. You will find bacon, beans, coffee, milk and butter on the shelf. So don’t leave this place hungry, just pitch in and help yourself.” This kind of sums up the best nature of the early pioneers, a nature that we would do well to emulate. Author Brown tells us of births, weddings and late-night dances. He speaks to the human side of the hard life at the end of the 19th Century in Rim Country. But he does not exclude important historical items from his telling. He finishes his book with a few sentences that I found totally charming. When the Roosevelt Dam opened its gates for the first time, a thoughtful citizen with an empty Champagne bottle filled it from the sparkling water. That bottle of conjoined Tonto Creek and Salt River water was later used to launch the mighty Battleship Arizona. The Rim Country Museum in Green Valley Park has copies for sale.

Kids participating in the Payson Parks, Recreation & Tourism Department’s day camp on Water Fun can expect to get wet with a variety of different activities planned; while there could be water involved in the Discovery Camp too.

Nothing to do? No way! Plenty of summer programs and activities offered to keep kids busy Don’t fall victim to the traditional lament of summer so often heard after the first rush of relief when school lets out — “I’m bored … There’s nothing to do.” There is plenty to do for youngsters in Rim Country with assorted vacation Bible school, summer sports camps and swimming at Taylor Pool in North Rumsey Park. Add to that list the Summer Reading Program at Payson Public Library and Day Camps offered through the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department. The Payson Public Library Summer Reading Program is from June 1 through July 30 and the theme this year is “Every Hero has a Story.” The program includes movies, presentations on a variety of topics, including cooking, and more, in addition to encouraging youngsters to read through the summer to win prizes when they submit a book log in early August. The program is

open to all children and teens. The only part of the program requiring registration is the Wednesday “Book Cooks” event — registration is due by Monday evening before the program. The library is at 328 N. McLane Rd., Payson, and is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Wednesday; and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday; closed Sunday and major holidays.

File photo

Learning the power of water erosion was part of one Water Fun project a few years ago. What is planned at the Water Fun Summer Youth Camp and the others on the calendar this summer is a surprise. And if none of the camps appeal to your youngster, then see what is part of the 2015 Summer Reading Program at the Payson Public Library. Or maybe you can teach a lesson on time management and they can take advantage of almost everything.

July. All participants must register online at paysonrimcountry.com or at the Parks & Recreation Office in Green Valley Park two weeks prior to the start of camp. A camp may be cancelled if it does not meet the minimum attendance threshold.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Still operating under a full head of self-esteem makes you want to tackle a matter you had shied away from. OK. But be sure to arm yourself with facts before you make a move. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) That smart move you recently made caught the attention of a lot of people, including some with financial deals to offer. Use your Taurean wariness to check them out thoroughly. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Shyness might keep you from asking for more information on a potentially important matter. But your curiosity grows stronger by midweek and gives you the impetus for data-gathering. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Taking on too many tasks may not be the wise thing to do at this time. You might overspend both your physical and emotional energy reserves, and have to miss out on some upcoming events. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Try to keep your spending at an affordable level. Splurging now -- especially on credit -- could create a problem if your finances are too low for you to take advantage of a possible opportunity. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You might not approve of a colleague’s behavior during much of the week. But don’t play the judgmental Virgo card here. As always, check the facts before you assume the worst. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Coping with an old issue that has suddenly re-emerged could take a big toll on your emotional energies. Decide whether you really want to pursue the possibilities here. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) For all your skill in keeping your secrets safe, you could be unwittingly letting one slip out by the way you’re behaving in that new relationship. Are congratulations soon to be in order? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Good old-fashioned horse sense could help you get around those who unknowingly or deliberately put obstacles in your way. Ignore the confusion and follow your own lead. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A puzzling attitude change in a colleague from friendly to chilly might stem from a long-hidden resentment suddenly bubbling up. An open and honest talk should resolve the problem. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This week, many ever-generous Aquarians might find themselves feeling an acquisitive urge. If so, indulge it. You’ve earned the right to treat yourself to wonderful things. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Expect to get a lot of advice on how to go about implementing your plans. But once you’ve sorted it all out, you’ll probably find that, once again, your way will be the best way. BORN THIS WEEK: You enjoy the quiet times of your life, but when you’re in the mood, you can throw a party everyone will want to go to. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
