GET READY FOR RODEO

MVF hosts steak dinner Pine and Strawberry residents are fortunate to have a plethora of civic organizations that work year round to help the needy, especially children. The Mountain Village Foundation, which has a glowing reputation for its scrumptious pancake breakfasts held at each summer arts and crafts festival, is among those groups dedicated to making the high country a better place to live. While the breakfasts are solid fundraisers, so are the annual “Western Steak Fry” benefits held each summer. From 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 16 at the StrawBEARy Bear restaurant in Strawberry, the foundation will host another of those dinners. Donations of $20 are asked per steak dinner. There will also be live music by Trouble in Paradise, 50/50 raffles, raffle prizes and plenty of down-home country fun. All proceeds benefit local families and children in need.

abundant in the area. After arriving in the town of Jasper, you will be transpired to your hotel. Jasper National Park is one of the most scenic parks in the world. Here, you will have the opportunity to see the beautiful natural wonder of Maligne Lake. Photographs of this lake are used in many Canadian advertisements. It is one of the most beautifully set lakes in North America. If you’re up to it, you can hike along Maligne Canyon, where the raging river has eroded the rock for thousands of years. You can also visit Medicine Lake and the tranquil blue-green water of Maligne Lake where you will take an hour’s boat cruise to Spirit Island. Here are good chances to spot deer, elk and moose. From Jasper, a coach will take you down the most scenic Icefields Parkway, one of the most legendary mountain roads in the world, and visit the Athabasca Glacier. Your tour guide will treat you to a picnic lunch and give you a chance to take some amazing photos of the glacier. Later that afternoon, your tour will take you on to wonderful and photogenic Lake Louise where you will spend a relaxing night. The next morning, there will be time to walk around part of the lake, taking in the scenic beauty and clicking your camera often. This is another sight Canadian advertisements use in

ads and posters. You can even rent a canoe and take it around the lake and perhaps enjoy tea in the Fairview dining room. The next day it’s on to Banff for an overnight here. The town itself is interesting and loaded with interesting shops and good restaurants. Norma and I dropped into a Chinese eatery one night off an alley and enjoyed one of the best Chinese meals we have had in North America. From here, most tours return to Vancouver or continue south to the city of Calgary. Now, if you time it right, plan to arrive here during the city’s “Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth” — the Calgary Stampede. Be a real cowboy and join the rodeo fun for one or two of the 10 days exciting events. The event kicks off with a parade of marching bands, more than 150 floats and hundreds of horses. Next, watch the world’s best rodeo athletes go head-tohead riding wild horses and bulls, roping cattle and more. Take in a Grandstand Show which is a staged spectacle featuring horses, singers, dancers and inspiring music. Last summer, Norma and I attended the opening day of the event and we’ll never forget it. The entire city of Calgary goes all out for this 10-day yearly event. On another note, some readers have inquired about visiting Cuba now that we have established

formal relations again. Several travel companies are planning to visit here with Americans. Most will use cruise ships taking you from Florida to Havana while also spending days in several ports of call. Most of these planned tours will last about 10 days. I will give you more information on Cuba travel as it is made available. You might be interested in booking space on Uncommon Journeys’ private train, the Great Western Limited, which is scheduled to do several very interesting rail journeys this year and next. They usually operate three private cars and couple them onto a scheduled AMTRAK train. These cars are from the streamlined era of the 1950s and have been completely refurbished and updated to today’s luxury standards. One of the cars is a lounge arrangement offering very comfortable chairs to fully enjoy the sights as you cruise by. Another is a very luxurious diner, fully staffed with gourmet table settings and menus fit for royalty. The last car is a Pullman equipped with drawing room, compartments, bedrooms and single occupancy roometts. All offer private facilities. The company is Uncommon Journeys and you can get more information online at: www. uncommonjourneys.com. Enjoy your travels. You’ll never forget the fun and excitement.

But it was their Gazette article, “hundreds of boys hospitality for which they became will remember how cold the water known.

Camp Ruggles was located above Camp Geronimo near the junction of Tonto and Horton Creeks. It was generally used as a secondary camp during the 1930s and 1940s. There was a ranger station, fish hatchery, and Civilian Conservation Corps camp at Indian Gardens at various times during the 1930s. Indian Gardens is now a mostly forgotten spot. When Highway 260 was widened, the road was moved a little bit north of the original alignment. No longer does it go right by this enchanting meadow with a lot of history. A monument to the CCC camp still remains, but it is now a forest service administrative site. Western author Zane Grey came to the Payson area between 1918 and 1929. At first he stayed at the Anderson Lee “Babe” Haught place north of Kohl’s Ranch before having a cabin built

for him there. His writings helped introduce people far and wide to the region. After falling into disrepair, his cabin was later restored and during the 1970s and 1980s was a popular tourist attraction before burning in the 1990 Dude Fire. Near where Zane Grey’s cabin was located is the Tonto Creek Fish Hatchery. It was established on Tonto Creek in 1937, tucked against the Mogollon Rim. According to the Arizona Game and Fish Department website, it is not uncommon for this scenic spot to have 400 to 500 visitors a day during the summer. It stocks about 140,000 catchable rainbow trout each year. The beginnings of what would become Camp Tontozona started during the 1940s when Martin Mortensen, a science professor at Arizona State College, brought

students up. Football coach Frank Kush started bringing his teams there in 1960, and with the exception of a few years during the 2000s, the team has been returning every year. There are other places with history nearby. Tonto Rim Christian Camp and Rancho Tonto CatchA-Trout are on land that Henry “Pappy” Haught patented on Tonto Creek north of Kohl’s Ranch in 1919. The Christian camp was long known as the Baptist camp and was first developed in the 1950s. Rancho Tonto Catch-ATrout was originally a lodge built by Roy Wayland, a noteworthy Phoenix druggist and financier. The area right around Kohl’s Ranch and Tonto Creek is filled with history. There are many, many other stories that are told, as well as others yet to be discovered.

Look in Bible for answers to questions about Jesus CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 JESUS’ CLAIM

In the gospels, there is one of several scenes that display the tenderness of Christ Jesus and His incredible holiness, shown through His awesome loving and comfort. He is speaking to His disciples, comforting them, encouraging them to keep their focus on God and on Him, because He is going to heaven to prepare a place for them. Jesus makes the claim that He is the ONLY way to salvation. Then He verifies and solidifies His claim. It was inconceivable for the disciples to be separated from Him, after being with him, basically 24/7 for the three years. They longed to be with Jesus and were distraught about His leaving. This scene starts with Jesus encouraging His beloved disciples and ending with Thomas, the spokesman for the group, asking Jesus one of the most important questions to mankind. “Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. “In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. “If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am,

there you may be also. “And you know the way where I am going.” Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, how do we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” — John 14:1-6 Those that are followers of Jesus as Lord, hold to the above saying as the very core, the very solid foundation of what we not only believe, but know to be true as Christians. But yet others may ask… well what about all the other variables in the world? We humans live in a pluralistic world full of a multitude of societies with people of all kinds of social classes, religions, races, etc., and we continue to have different traditions and interests. As the saying goes, “America is the melting pot. And the melting pot is the world.” So how do we factor all of that into the equation? Is this claim right? I mentioned earlier that many questions come my way in regards to Christianity and as a servant of most holy God. Some people are actually offended when I tell them that, “Jesus is the ONLY way.” They forget that these are not my words, but the words of Jesus;

therefore I am simply quoting my Savior. However, for those who want to sincerely understand and question who Jesus really is, the answer is found as they study the Bible for themselves, learning the holy truths of God. Some people will question Jesus’ claim of being the only way and Him being God. There are usually three camps of thought that people nestle themselves into 1) Jesus had to be a liar OR 2) Jesus had to be a crazy person who needs to be locked up in a mental institution OR , the final answer 3) Jesus was and is Lord of all. All that Jesus claimed was true, so He cannot be a liar. Jesus cannot be a lunatic because all of His claims are, were and always will be truth, so we must except that Jesus is the final answer as the viewpoint of followers of Jesus who process Christianity as their faith. QUESTIONS AND VALID ANSWERS

Questions are good; they help understand and lead us to the knowledge that we seek. While some people reading this might respond by asking more questions, such as: “But what about good, moral people?” Answer: The good person is someone who has never, not at any time since they were born, committed or even thought of

a moral crime. In other words, they have never offended God’s throne. If there was such a person, we would not need Jesus. But because no one can rise and validate that claim for themselves, we can conclude that because no one is good, not one… verifies that we all need Jesus. God is a just and fair One. He offers us Jesus as a pardon for the remission of our sins. So we are responsible to respond to His gracious loving offer through acceptance and praise. Question: “But I have not committed that many wrong things (sins), why would this apply to me?” Answer: Just because we are innocent of the majority of things, still does not prove or validate that we as humans are or can be perfect. From the time we are born to the time we die, we are repeat offenders when it comes to sin/wrongdoing. God’s justice requires that we are perfect. But you might ask, “How can I be perfect? NO ONE is perfect!” But there is more… God, knowing we are not perfect, provides for us to render us completely guilt free. What pure joy! To continue... PART II coming soon YOUR TURN: What are your questions? Ask, seek and you will find Jesus!

COVER STORY

Rim Country students returned to school this week. Help keep your students alert with healthy meal choices, good sleeping habits and schedules that aren’t overwhelmed by too many activities.

Better bets for back to school Food choices the whole family can feel good about Rim youngsters returned to the classroom this week. As you get in gear for the changes the new school year brings, it’s important to put your kids’ nutrition on the back-to-school checklist. Countless studies link school performance and healthy eating habits. Treat this season of “academic beginnings” as a chance for the whole family to take a fresh approach to better-for-you eating. From on-the-go breakfasts and brag-worthy brown bag lunches to after-school snacks and family-friendly dinners, there are plenty of ways to pack nutrition and flavor into every meal. Often, creating healthier meals can be as easy as simply trading-up or swapping one food ingredient for a more nutritious choice. Selecting menu options that help your family eat better begins at the grocery store with your shopping decisions. If the A-B-Cs and 1-2-3s of

food labels make your head spin, you can rely on tools such as the NuVal® Nutritional Scoring System, which provides scores near the price on the shelf tag to identify better-for-you foods. Based on a scale of 1 to 100, the scores rank foods and beverages on their nutritional content with the most nutritious choices scoring highest. You can take other steps to make shopping easier for healthy eating, says Marisa Paolillo, a nutritionist with NuVal. First and foremost, she says, don’t go when you’re hungry. “It really is true. If you shop hungry, you’re more likely to toss foods into your cart that will satisfy the hunger pangs at the moment, rather than what you actually need for the week ahead,” she adds. Another smart shopping tip is to plan, plan, plan. Paolillo suggests starting out right by planning a full week’s worth of menus, then creating a shopping list. This not only streamlines meal preparation, it saves household budget, aids nutrition choices and reduces the frustration and extra time associated with return trips to the store. 1. Determine what you will serve

for breakfasts, lunches, snacks and dinners. 2. Create a grocery list of food ingredients that are needed. 3. Don’t forget to check specials and coupons in your store’s weekly circular. (Consider swapping listed ingredients for seasonal or on-sale foods.) “Taking a list to the grocery store will ensure that you stick to your budget and only buy what you need,” says Paolillo. If you’re pressed for time and on a spur-of-the-moment shopping run, however, keep these better-for-you food basics in mind. Consider these: • Breakfast: Scrambled eggs are a quick and easy breakfast — but hardboiled eggs are a great option for an on-the-go snack. • Mid-Day Snack: Get a quick protein and calcium boost during the day with cottage cheese or plain yogurt with fruit or granola. • Lunch and Dinner: Make sure to include vegetables in all meals. • On-the-Go Snack: Fruit like apples, bananas, tangerines and pears are perfectly portable for on-the-go ease. • Dinner: Round out your day with lean protein at dinner, such as poultry or fish seasoned with herbs.

Paolillo offers some final healthy eating, back-to-school shopping tips. Take advantage of in-store nutritional scoring systems or services to help guide food choices, and make the majority of food selections from the outer perimeter of the store. “Think produce, dairy, fish and meat,” Paolillo says. “This will ensure that most of your food choices are more nutrient-packed and fresh, versus heavily processed foods that tend to be loaded with additional sugar, salt and fat.” Find nutritious trade-ups and family-friendly meals to kick off the new school year at www. nuval.com/Shop/Recipes. BRING BREAKFAST-TO-GO

Even if breakfast finds you crunched for time, prime the kids with morning nutrients to energize their day. Give them a breakfast boost with make-ahead options that can be enjoyed on-thego in cars and buses. Try portable Scrambled Egg Cups or Oatmeal Cups, which provide plenty of protein to get them through the day. UNBEATABLE “BROWN BAG” TIPS

When it comes to packing school lunches, stick to what your kids like. If they aren’t crazy about something, it may end up in

the garbage or get traded for an unhealthy snack. These simple swaps will make your kids’ brown bag lunch unbeatable: • For sandwiches, swap white bread for a higher NuVal-scoring brown bread or pita. • Replace deli meats with lean roasted beef or poultry or low fat cheese. • For a delicious, nutritious sandwich spread, trade mayonnaise for a mashed avocado. Make fruits and vegetables a go-to snack. Chop up carrots, peppers and celery in advance and stash some in lunch bags with hummus; or sprinkle apple and pear slices with lemon and cinnamon to satisfy a sweet tooth. • Choose water to hydrate and calcium- and vitamin D-rich milk to strengthen growing bones. SMART SWAPS FOR AFTER SCHOOL

Chips and packaged cookies, move out of the way. Swap them for smart after-school snacks that are homemade, nutritious and fun to make. Custom-create a smoothie. Have kids choose their favorite fruit and vegetables. Toss them into the blender with ice and fatfree yogurt for a snack that’s easy, fun and filling. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Tips for creating healthy, homemade meals FROM PAGE 6

Make banana sushi rolls. Top a whole grain tortilla with nut butter and a whole banana sprinkled with cinnamon. Roll it up and slice like sushi rolls. (These are great for lunches, too.) Other after-school smart snacks include: • Apple slices topped with almond butter. • Air-popped popcorn (Avoid microwave popcorn, which is often high in trans-fat and sodium.) • Fresh salsa and tortilla chips. Source: NuVal Nutritional Scoring System The start of a new school year means less time to think about dinner. The good news is, with just a little advance planning and these three easy tips, in no time you’ll be whipping up wholesome “A+” meals your family will love.

For a healthy, home-cooked dinner, all you need is a can opener, a strainer and some imagination. Canned crushed tomatoes, sliced carrots and chopped spinach create a savory Vegetable Lasagna worthy of seconds, and canned chicken with white beans, hominy and chicken broth combine for a White Chicken Chili that’s ready in just 30 minutes.

STOCK YOUR PANTRY

INVOLVE KIDS IN MEAL PREP

BACK-TO-SCHOOL BASICS

Add canned fruits, vegetables, proteins and soups to your back-to-school shopping list. Like home canning, cans seal in foods’ natural goodness and nutrition, making hearty, homemade meals simple and delicious. GET CREATIVE

Moms face a number of challenges when trying to get their kids to eat more fruit and vegetables. According to a recent study conducted by Cans Get You Cooking, canned foods help a majority of moms (76 percent) get fruits and vegetables on the table,

and into kids’ diets. Another way to encourage kids to eat healthy meals is to include them in meal preparation, which also teaches skills like measuring, counting and following directions. For more nutritious and flavorful recipes for back-to-school, visit www.CansGetYouCooking. com.

VEGETABLE LASAGNA Prep time: 20 minutes; cooking time: 40 minutes; makes 12 servings 1, 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes 1 large garlic clove, crushed 1 teaspoon dried basil 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1, 15-ounce container ricotta cheese 1 large egg

12 no-boil lasagna noodles 1, 14.5-ounce can sliced carrots, well drained 1, 13.5-ounce can chopped spinach, well drained 2, cups shredded mozzarella cheese 1/3, cup grated Parmesan cheese In 2-quart saucepan over high heat, heat tomatoes, garlic, basil, salt and pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce to low and simmer uncovered 10 minutes to blend flavors. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 12-by-8-inch baking dish. In medium bowl combine ricotta cheese and egg until well mixed. Spoon tomato sauce on bottom of dish to coat. Place 3 uncooked noodles lengthwise across the pan. Top with 1/3 of tomato sauce. With spatula, spread 1/3 of ricotta mixture. Scatter 1/3 of carrots and spinach on ricotta and 1/3 of mozzarella cheese. Repeat with uncooked noodles, tomato sauce, ricotta, vegetables and mozzarella two more times. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover dish with foil; bake 30 minutes. Uncover dish; bake 10 minutes longer. Let cool before cutting.

Since the recipes makes 12 servings, it could be a time saver too — When it is cool enough to cut, divide in half and maneuver one part into a storage container that can be frozen. Tuck it in the freezer once cooled and have it ready to go for one of those crazy nights you know is somewhere down the road.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A previous misunderstanding continues to taint the atmosphere to some extent in the early part of the week. But cooler heads prevail, and the situation eases by week’s end. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) While the artistic aspect of the Divine Bovine is well-served this week, that practical side is also getting the sort of recognition that could lead to a new and well-deserved opportunity. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) With home-related matters taking on more importance this week, now could be the time to make some long-deferred purchases. But shop carefully for the best quality at the best price. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Congratulations. While that family problem might still rankle, it should be easing thanks to your efforts to calm the waters. Also, a workplace situation seems to be moving in your favor. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat’s energy levels should be rather high these days, and you might do well to tackle any tasks that still need doing. This will clear the way for those upcoming projects. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Someone’s criticism might not be as negative as you perceive. Actually, it could be helpful. Discuss the matter with your critic, and you both could learn something valuable. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A business matter could cause some friction among your colleagues. But once again, that logical mind of yours comes to the rescue. And the sooner it does, the better! SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) There might still be some heated temper flare-ups out there. But your sensible self should advise you to stay out of these situations until things cool down and calm is restored. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Changing your mind could be the right thing to do if you can’t resolve your doubts. You might want to discuss the matter with someone whose advice you trust. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) The Sea Goat’s merrier side dominates this week, and this means that, despite your usual busy schedule, you’ll be able to squeeze in parties and all sorts of fabulous fun times. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) An educational opportunity could lead to something other than what you had planned. But keep an open mind, and before you decide to turn it down, check it out. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The Piscean wit and wisdom helps you work through a situation that might have been accidentally or even deliberately obscured. What you unravel could prove to be very revealing. BORN THIS WEEK: Loyalty is important to you. You demand it, but you also give it generously and lovingly. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

Eco-friendly pest control BY MELINDA MYERS

Spots on tomatoes, holes in hosta leaves and wilting stems mean insects and diseases have moved into the garden. Don’t let these intruders reduce the beauty and productivity of your landscape. Work in concert with nature to prevent and control these pests and you will be rewarded with a bountiful harvest and landscape filled with beautiful blooms. MONITOR

Take regular walks through the landscape. Look for discolored leaves, spots, holes and wilting. Inspect the underside of the leaves and along the stems to uncover the cause of the problem. IDENTIFY

Once you discover a problem, identify the culprit. Your local extension service, garden center or reliable Internet resource can help. Once identified, you can plan the best way to manage the culprit. INVITE THE GOOD GUYS

Toads, lady beetles and birds help control many garden pests. Attract them to the garden by planting herbs and flowers to attract beneficial insects, adding a house for the toads, and birdbath for songbirds. Avoid using pesticides and learn to tolerate a bit of damage. CLEAN UP

Many insects and diseasmelindamyers.com es can be managed and pre- Floating row cover. vented with a bit of garden cleanup. A strong blast of water from the garden hose will dislodge aphids and mites, reducing their damage to a tolerable level. Or knock leaf-eating beetles and other larger insects off the plants and into a can of soapy water. Pick off discolored leaves, prune off diseased stems and destroy. Be sure to disinfect tools with 70 percent alcohol or one part bleach to nine parts water solution between cuts. This will reduce the risk of spreading the disease when pruning infected plants. ADJUST CARE

Reduce the spread and risk of further problems by adjusting your maintenance strategies. Avoid overhead and nighttime watering that can increase the risk of disease. Use an organic nitrogen fertilizer, which encourages slow, steady growth that is less susceptible to insect and disease attacks. NON-CHEMICAL CONTROLS

If the problems continue, try some non-chemical options for insects. A yellow bowl filled with soapy water can attract aphids, a shallow can filled with beer and sunk in the ground will manage slugs, and crumpled paper under a flower pot for earwigs are just a few ways to trap and kill these pests. Or cover the plants with floating row covers. These fabrics allow air, light and water through, but prevent insects like bean beetles and cabbage worms from reaching and damaging the plants. ORGANIC PRODUCTS

Organic products like insecticidal soap, Neem, horticulture oil and Bacillus thuringiensis can be used to control specific pests. And even though these are organic, they are designed to kill insects or disease organisms, so be sure to read and follow label directions carefully. A little eco-friendly gardening can go a long way in creating a beautiful and productive garden.
