ATTENTION ALL COOKS Cooking classes for adults are returning to the Payson Public Library in August. Peggy Martin, a certified nutritional counselor, will facilitate a series of four, three-hour Cookin’ for Health classes, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. Classes are free, but are limited to 10 participants so get registered as soon as possible. Stop by the library for more. Martin has selected a theme for the series, Honoring Meta Given. She said she has a long-standing fascination and admiration for Meta Given. “When I began online research of cook book author Meta Given, surprisingly I discovered very little information. Growing up in the 1950s, Meta Given’s “The Modern Family Cook Book” and “Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking” were popular references for home cooking recipes, thrift, family health information and nutrition. “In her introduction to “The Modern Family Cook Book,” she says, “This book was planned to help you deal with your food problems. A careful analysis shows them to be of three kinds - Planning, Buying, and Cooking. For this reason, we have three parts to this book, each filled with helpful suggestions written in simple language, each headed by a “Creed” expressing the importance and the dignity of the homemaker’s tasks.”
Evening of music benefits food bank Enjoy the music of England, Ireland and Scotland and help one of the area’s food banks for First Friday. The Community Presbyterian Church, 800 W. Main St., Payson is hosting a concert by Cinnamon Twist from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., Friday, Aug. 1 and will be serving dinner for a suggested donation of $5 per person or contributions of non-perishable food for the Presbyterian Food Pantry.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
VISITING FRANCE
Famous for its wines and cheeses, France is the world’s most popular tourist destination; receiving 82 million foreign travelers each year. Historic cities, a beautiful countryside and outstanding castles of the Loire Valley along with Brittany and Normandy attract visitors. The climate is agreeable, some of the beaches are excellent, especially those of the French Riviera, the Atlantic coast and on the island of Corsica, plus the famed Alps mountains with skiing known around the world. The French tourist attractions are many with those in Paris KEN BROOKS drawing the most visitors each year. We can begin with The Louvre, which is the world’s largest museum and a historic monument in its own right. Consider this a must when visiting Paris. Some of the world’s most famous paintings and sculptures are on display here. The museum itself was once a palace of great size. The Musee d’Orsay – a former rail station - houses 19th century paintings and one of the largest Impressionist exhibits. Then, there is the Centre Georges Pompidou, a 20th century modern art museum, hosting the Paris Museum of Modern Art. There are several other museums devoted to arts and crafts that you may find interesting. Monuments are all over the city of Paris - The Eiffel Tower is probably the most famous of these. It is a construction of Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Universal Exposition. From various levels of the monument you can view almost the entire city. The Arc de Triomphe monument at the center of the Place de I’Etoile, commemorates the victories of France and honoring those who died in battle. Les Invalides is a complex containing museums and monuments relating to the military history of France. It dominates the Parisian skyline with the best views being seen from the third level. There are stairs and elevators to lift you above the ground floor. The Pantheon is a church and tomb of a

number of France’s most famed men and women. The Grand Palais is a large glass exhibition hall built for the 1900 Paris Exhibition. The Place Vendome is another monument you must visit along with several others within the city limits before departing Paris. There are several large churches you should visit. The list begins with the famous Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral, which is Paris’s 12th Century ecclesiastical centerpiece on the Ile de la Cite. Many novels and films have been set here. “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” comes to mind first. The Sainte-Chapelle is a 13th-century Gothic palace chapel, also located on the Ile de la Cite. Located in the district of Montmartre is the Basilica of Sacre Coeur. These and other famed churches are to be seen here. In the greater Paris metropolitan area are castles and chateaus you may also wish to visit. Don’t fail to miss the Palace of Versailles, which was the former palace of French kings. It is fully furnished with art and antiques with surrounding grounds that have been photographed zillions of times. If you bring the children be advised there is a Disneyland here. It is the largest theme park in Europe. Don’t forget to visit the southern parts of France especially along the Riviera. You can experience interesting cities and towns such as Nice, which is close to Monaco and hosts the International Film Festival each year and San Tropez and Cannes. Here is where the artists, jetsetters and fashion models dwell in the summer. Marseille is one of the more charming French cities and was once a fishing village. Now grown to be one of the more fascinating port cities along the Mediterranean. It offers interesting shopping, especially fine and tasty restaurants, fantastic seafood and in 2013 was designated the European Capital of Culture. It has been a major trading port for centuries. Try and get a room at the Grand Hotel Beauvau Marseille, which is located at the waterfront and near the more important parts of Marseille. You will find interesting shops, museums, fishing boats and seafood. Try a Marseille-style bouillabaisse consisting of fresh fish, shellfish, and

Western Mediterranean itineraries. Book one that stops here. If you like French architecture, plan a trip to the second most visited chateau, Chateau de Chambord. With 440 rooms King Francois I spent only 40 days here. He really didn’t like it. You’ll enjoy a tour through the chateau, which is a perfect example of the French Renaissance period in the 16th century. The French Alps are known the world over for their majesty of size and shapes with ski villages dotting the area. Chamonix is one of them located at the foot of Mont Blanc. It is a mecca for alpine mountaineers and mountain bikers. The Loire sections of France attract many visitors during the summer who stay in bed and breakfast homes and simply explore the villages on foot. It’s always fun to sample the local food prepared in the cafes available around the towns. Photographers continue to travel to Mount Saint-Michel which is a medieval town perched atop an imposing rocky outcrop in Normandy. Here is an Abby with medieval charm. It’s best to visit during high tide when the Abby seems to be on an island. It’s a steep climb to the top. Be prepared. Probably the best-preserved Roman amphitheater in the world is the Nimes Arena, even better than Rome’s Coliseum. I suppose in order to get the best of France you need to examine the itineraries of reliable tour companies to see if you might fit into all the travel required in order to see the main destinations. If you think you might try renting a car in Paris then driving around France look into the costs of doing your own thing. Hotels are expensive during the summer months. For a 4-star property, rooms usually run from $300 upward. And, they do not want dollars, only Euros. You can convert at your bank with sufficient notice or at the airport before departure. You won’t be sorry you decided to visit France. Paris is still my most favorite city in the world. Take an early morning walk and go shopping later. Expensive, yes, but the products are really first class in most cases. Make extra room in your suitcase for those items you purchase and take home.

fees. Frank Clymer’s death caused his widow, Mercedes, to move to Globe in search of employment. She obtained work cooking and serving tables in a boarding house. After several years one of the boarders she waited on was a miner named John Bartolomeo Belluzzi. John was attracted to her as she served him meals and went about her tasks in the boarding house. They fell in love and were married in Florence on June 5, 1879. Mercedes was 25 and John was 31. Many couples went to Florence for their wedding because that was the residence of the local priest and Catholic bishop. The following year, on May 22, their first child, Angela, was born there in Globe and Mercedes’ mother Guadalupe Kilbride came to live with them, probably to care for the baby while the parents both worked. Meanwhile their ranch on the East Verde, under Barnini’s management, was producing well and the continuous use of the land for agriculture kept the homestead claim alive. In 1882 the Old Dominion mine closed and the family moved to Tucson where John worked for a stage line company. Their second child was born there, a daughter Maria Rosenda Lee Belluzzi, on March 1, 1883. She would always be known as Rose. At this point the ranch was pro-
ducing products enough to sustain the family and they returned to the East Verde property. John had contracted a throat illness from his work in the mines and since there was no doctor to care for him in the Rim Country the family reluctantly went to Winslow where John entered the hospital. The pioneer mother now had to care for her family while living out of their wagon and selling tortillas and tacos to passengers and workers on the railroad that passed through town. She cooked them over an open fire with hot stones. Then on January 17, 1885 their third child, Bert was born. After John was released from the hospital he worked for the railroad until they had enough money to return to the ranch. However, there were seasons when John had to move his family back to Globe or Tucson for employment when crops failed and the ranch could not support them. It would be six more years before they could settle permanently on their Rim Trail Ranch. NEXT: PART TWO OF THE BELLUZZI STORY
[1] His tombstone in the Payson Pioneer Cemetery erroneously dates his birth in 1852. [2] The author’s historical novel “The Immigrant” was inspired by the Belluzzi story. It can be found on Amazon’s eBooks,
and read on any digital device. [3] Later when John and his wife settled permanently on the ranch, Barnini moved on and claimed a homestead in Starr Valley. Later he sold it to Andrew Ogilvie for $80. Barnini was killed in an explosion at one of his mine claims. SOURCES:

RIM REVIEW • JULY 30, 2014
COVER STORY | CHUCK JACOBS
Chuck Jacob photos
The Rim Country 4 Wheelers meet at 8 a.m. every Wednesday in the parking lot of the Big 5 store in Payson (just east of Bashas’) and members head out for an adventure in the Rim Country in a variety of four-wheel-drive vehicles. The group welcomes newcomers and would love to show others the great places they have discovered in their travels.
Thrill of Rim 4-wheeling It’s shortly before 8 a.m. on Wednesday morning, and an assortment of Jeeps and other four-wheel drive vehicles are quietly gathering in the parking lot in front of the Big 5 store in Payson. The group are members and guests of the Rim Country 4 Wheelers (RC4W), and this is their regular weekly Wednesday trip. Where they’ll go and what they’ll do will vary, but they have been enjoying the many four-wheeling opportunities that the Rim Country has to offer since the club was founded in 1997. As all of us “locals” and many of our visitors know, we sit in the middle of millions of acres of public land, making us a Mecca for all types of outdoor activities. Whether it be hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, biking or whatever you like to do, you need to get there ... and much of the time that involves backroad travel in a four-wheel drive vehicle. That is fourwheeling, and the Rim Country offers excellent four-wheeling opportunities practically anywhere you look. Those of us who drive Jeeps call it Jeepin’, and we have some of the best and most varied Jeepin’ that can be found anywhere in Arizona (or beyond). Hot in the summer? Go up on the Rim. Cold in the winter? There are lots of roads down in the desert just waiting to be explored. You can be in some of the toughest backcountry imaginable, and still be back in time for dinner. Could anything be better? As with every other activity, fourwheeling (Jeepin’) requires that we act responsibly: Stay on existing roads, don’t tear the place up, don’t start a fire and burn the place down, pick up your trash, and be courteous to other users. This
place is big enough for all of us, and nothing can spoil your day quicker than running into some inconsiderate jerk (or group of jerks), who are of the opinion that they alone own the place. Everywhere you go, leave it looking better than it did when you got there. One more thing while I’m preaching: Please remember that the backcountry is very unforgiving. All back roads can become muddy and impassible in wet weather, and temperatures can drop to dangerous levels after the sun goes down. T-shirts and shorts are fine, but bring warm clothes along just in case. Make sure that your vehicle is in good condition, and it is always best to never travel alone. Be prepared and don’t let a pleasant afternoon drive turn into a life-threatening survival exercise. The folks at Tonto Rim Search and Rescue are busy enough without you adding to their workload. Below are a few of the RC4W members’ favorite Payson-area day trips (FR = Forest Road): EASY.
The Crackerjack/Doll Baby Loop
North of Payson on Highway 87 to milepost 256, turn left on FR 209. FR 209 passes the back side of East Verde Estates, then crosses the East Verde River on a concrete slab crossing and continues to the site of the Crackerjack Mine. Once past the mine, the road climbs sharply up out of the canyon and continues to the junction of FR 209 and FR 209A. Bear left on FR 209A and follow it down to another river crossing near Doll Baby Ranch, and on to FR 406. Turn right and take FR 406 for a short side trip to the locked gate at
the boundary of the Mazatzal Wilderness, or turn left and take FR 406 past Doll Baby Ranch and back to Payson. This trip is suitable for any high-clearance fourwheel drive vehicle, and will take four to five hours. Do not attempt this route if river levels are up. The “Back Road to Gisela”
South of Payson on Highway 87 to FR 208, the road to the Jim Jones Shooting Range. Left on FR 208, past the range entrance, and down to Gisela. Return via the Gisela Road. This road has a number of unsigned junctions, so if in doubt, follow the most heavily traveled alternative. This trip is suitable for any high-clearance
four-wheel drive vehicle, and will take three to four hours. MODERATE.
FR 1171 under Little Diamond Rim
Northeast of Payson on Houston Mesa Road to milepost 3.9, turn left on FR 1171. Follow FR 1171 north and west, crossing the East Verde River and traveling west under the Little Diamond Rim until the junction with FR 74. There are a number of choices from here — right on FR 74 will go up to Control Road, left on FR 74 will go to Highway 87, and left on FR 74 for a short distance and then taking an unsigned left fork, FR 1579, which CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

will come out on Flowing Springs Road near the houses. A right will take you back to Highway 87. This trip is suitable for any high-clearance four-wheel drive vehicle, and will take four to five hours. Do not attempt this route if river levels are up. CHALLENGING.
Forest Road 433 through Gilliland Gap
Another RC4W favorite. Take Highway 260 to Star Valley, and turn left on Mayfield Canyon Road (across from Steve Coury Ford). Stay to the right and the road becomes FR 433. There are a number of unmarked side roads and ATV trails in this area, so stay on the most heavily-traveled route, generally following a sand wash, until the spot (marked with a sign) where FR 433 climbs out of the wash. FR 433 goes north, through Gilliland Gap, all the way to Control Road. It is long, rocky, narrow and brushy, but also very scenic. This is a challenging road, better for Jeeps and other similar vehicles, and will take four to five hours. EXTREME.
Pyeatt Draw
No article about four-wheeling in our area would be complete without talking about Pyeatt Draw, which is a nationally-known extreme route up a rocky streambed, and is a favorite of the rockcrawler crowd. What makes it different from other similar routes is that FR 1256 parallels the streambed, crossing it several times, and offers easy access for support crews and spectators. The most extreme obstacle, called Second Waterfall, has a series a flat boulders (called “the bleachers”) where it is not uncommon to find 40 to 50 people watching the action on busy weekends. To get there, travel northeast of Payson on Houston Mesa Road to milepost 4.9, then right on FR 198. Follow FR 198 up over Little Diamond Rim to where it crosses Pyeatt Draw, then turn right on FR 1256. The turnoff is marked. Follow FR 1256 (rated moderate) upstream, generally to the east, crossing the wash a number of times until you reach a clearing about 100 feet across that obviously has been a parking area. The Second Waterfall obstacle is in the creekbed a short walk to your left. If you get to the signed junction of FR 1256, FR 1258 and FR 1602, you have gone just a little too far. To return, you can either come back the way you went in, or you can continue east on FR 1256, which turns into FR 1602, until it meets FR 433, where a left will take you north to Control Road, or a right will take you south through Gilliland Gap and down to Star Valley (see above). If you take FR 433 left to Control Road, this trip is suitable for any high-clearance fourwheel drive vehicle. Travel time can vary from four hours to all day. Have fun, be safe, act responsibly. Even a bad day Jeepin’ pretty much beats another day doing anything else. For more on the RC4W, go to www.rimcountry4wheelers.com or call 2014 RC4W President Chuck Jacobs at (928) 595-0967.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Dealing with a difficult person can be the kind of challenge you Aries Lambs love. Or it could be an energy-draining exercise in futility. Be certain your goals are worth your efforts. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Divine Bovine might be seeing red at having your crisis-resolution efforts overlooked. But others know the truth, and they can be expected to step forward when the time comes. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You should be well on your way to finally making that important decision. Having the support of loved ones will help when crunch time comes. Keep a positive attitude. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Feeling uneasy about a move might not mean you’re having a case of Cancerian wavering. It could be your inner sense is warning you to reassess your situation before taking action. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Your pride could get in the way of admitting you might have erred. Best to ‘fess up now before a small mistake turns into a big misunderstanding. Make the weekend a special family time. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Trying to please someone with a less-than-glowing opinion of something you value could be a waste of time. If you like it, stay with it. The week’s end brings an answer to an old mystery. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) There might be time to make a change. But be honest with yourself: Is it what you really want, or one you feel pressured into making? Your answer should determine your next move. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Change is dominant, but so is caution: Proceed carefully, checking each step along the way to avoid encountering any unwelcome surprises that might be lurking along your path. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) It could be a mistake to rely on someone to keep his or her promise without checking out previous performances. What you learn now could save you from a painful lesson later. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Taking a strong stand on an issue you feel is too important to ignore could inspire others to follow suit. The weekend is a good time to socialize with old friends and make new ones. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Your sensitive nature gives you an insight into the problems of someone close to you. Your offer of support could be just what this person needs to start turning his or her life around. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Financial matters continue to need even more careful analysis than usual. Use caution with investment possibilities. A personal relationship might take an unexpected turn by the week’s end. BORN THIS WEEK: You appreciate the wonders of the world and enjoy sharing your delight with others. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
