TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

EASY, COMFORTABLE TRAVEL IDEAS If you are now an older traveler and it’s time for a vacation, you consider how some of the ideas you had for travel in the past are perhaps now too difficult. Perhaps now camping, trail hiking, biking and other like vacations are not in tune with your physical being. Today, we will suggest a few of the less active and more comfortable ways and destinations for travel. Now, more and more areas are opening up for older travelers wanting a more comfortable method of travel, but still seeing and enjoying popular destinations. Coming to mind first would be KEN BROOKS cruising. There are marvelous itineraries you can experience by selecting a cruise. Some may think, no cruise for me! Well, perhaps you might change your mind if you were aware of the many cruise ships now plying the seas. Over 400 ships are out there allowing passengers of all age groups to visit different lands and islands. The downside of cruising is you only get to scratch the surface because most ships only spend one day in each port. It’s really enough to see the major sights of a town or city and perhaps some major attraction not far from your port of call. You, at least, get the flavor of each location on the ship’s itinerary. This is better than not experiencing anything at all in my book. We are ourselves seniors that continue to see some of the best locations this planet offers by cruise ship. We can more easily pace ourselves. As a doctor will tell you, listen to your body. Cruise ships of varying size carry passengers on 3, 7, 12, 14, 21 and more days of sightseeing. The ships provide your transportation, all meals in the main dining rooms (not including the specialty restaurants), a comfortable cabin (book one with a private balcony) as well as various entertainment. The entertainment will vary from a small musical group playing in various bars and lounges to the large theatre which will usually present large musical shows with singers and dancers and perhaps some acrobatic action and maybe a magi-

cian. The shows vary from ship to ship and cruise line to cruise line. Often, the bigger the ship the larger the show. Your cabin steward will make your bed, clean the bathroom and tidy the room and balcony. Sometimes twice each day. At night, your ship will cruise to the next destination for another day’s excitement. Where can you cruise to? The Caribbean is one of the most popular destinations all year. Most ships will depart from Florida, mainly Miami or Fort Lauderdale. In one week your ship can cruise to three different islands before returning to Florida. An 11-, 12- and 14-day cruise can reach two and three additional ports before returning to Florida. Alaska is another popular destination in the summer. Other itineraries will include cruises through the Mediterranean area, Northern Europe such as the Baltic which will include Norway, Sweden and St. Petersburg, Russia. I suggest you plan this itinerary to depart out of England so you can take advantage of British Airways daily flight from Phoenix nonstop to London. The flight takes about 10 hours and you fly overnight. You leave Phoenix mid-evening and arrive in London early the next afternoon, London time. After take-off you are served beverages to include Cokes, coffee, bar drinks and wine and beer. Later, a full hot dinner. Then it’s time to try and get some sleep. I manage to do this by first drinking two glasses of wine. I sleep about five or six hours and feel pretty good when we are awakened and served breakfast before landing in London. Before continuing on, if that is your plan, I suggest booking a room near the airport so as to get some rest before continuing on to your European destination. Now, let’s back up a bit to discuss airport movement. If you can’t walk too far or not at all, at curbside check-in request a wheelchair to take you through the airport to your gate. The people that push your chair will speed you through the TSA procedure with their assistance and will wheel you to your flight gate. This will position you for the early boarding of your flight before the other passengers begin boarding. Try it, it works! You can request the same assistance at your arrival destination

airport. Keep in mind you must also be in possession of a current passport. If you do not have one, ask the post office where you can obtain one. If you need a wheelchair aboard ship, you must have an able traveler with you. The cruise ship will not assign you a “pusher” for the duration of the cruise. River cruising is gaining much attention these days. More and more companies are building larger boats that will render better service and comfort to passengers. There are river boats cruising the mighty Mississippi from New Orleans all the way up to Minneapolis/St. Paul. These are newer paddle wheel vessels built to resemble the old boats, but are up-to-date with all amenities you require and comfortable rooms to reside in. The dining will mostly be good old American cuisine with touches from the South. If you are not able to walk very far or even at all, you must have an able person with you to push your chair. The advantage of river travel is that the boat pulls into all the towns and cities along the river and ties up. You can book tours around town or the area and return to your boat at the appointed time of departure. And with river cruising you always have some interesting shore sights passing

by the windows. One of these days, Norma and I want to cruise northbound from New Orleans to Memphis. There is so much interesting history about this area I want to experience it from a river travel perspective. These river cruises last usually one week and cover so much. The scenery, history, dining and entertainment add up to total enjoyment of a time gone by. You can now cruise New England in the summer and fall as well as the Atlantic Coast up and down the deep South as well as the inland passage in Florida. Overseas river cruising is popular in the major rivers such as the Rhine. They last from seven, 12, 14 and 21 days. It is possible to river cruise from Amsterdam through Western and Eastern Europe in 21 days. Like ocean cruising, your transportation, dining, most shore tours and entertainment is included in the fare. Be aware the fares for these are not cheap. First I suggest you find an experienced travel agent and request their assistance in selecting an itinerary that meets your desires and who will book the cruise, transfers and flights for you. Today, some river boat lines are offering free air and transfers with the more expensive cruises for now and next year. Your travel agent will have all the latest information along with some brochures for you to study. If cruising is not within your interest or budget, I will suggest a few other places that you may have interest in. The great American National Parks are very much worth your time and expense to visit. Some favorites are Yosemite, Yellowstone and Grand Tetons to name a few. The parks are scattered all over our great nation. Make sure the car is in good order and take off. You can secure good maps from AAA if you are a member and obtain their latest tour books covering those areas you plan to travel through. Very popular now are Hawaii, Las Vegas, Branson, Costa Rica, Canadian Rockies, Alaska in the summer as well as New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle. There is a lot more to explore. How much money and time do you have to experience them all? At least try one or two at a time.

Marvelous Marvel movies Sometimes it seems like all the best movies are made from some Marvel Comic book or other. Maybe not all the best films are from Marvel, but a passel of films have been made from Marvel characters and many of them have attracted the favorable attention of the viewing public. Let’s look at some of them. The modern Marvel era began in 1986 with a quirky little film about a quirky little character “Howard the Duck.” While not a hit on the scale of some of the later movies, it pleased me and drew in some $37, a tiny fraction of the $131 million made by the Vampire fighter “Blade” 12 years later. Stan Lee must have learned that cool and quirky stood in second place to fast and colorful at the box office. The first “X-Men” came out with the new century in 2000 to almost $300 million and began a franchise that so far has included seven films with a combined total box office in the billions of dollars. The latest in the series includes Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence who appears wearing nothing but blue paint, a testimony to the popularity and lucrative nature of the films. “Spider Man,” the first of that name, came out two years later and set a new mark in popular culture. Everyone saw it and it made a staggering $822 million. This franchise includes five films so far, every one of them has been a super blockbuster. The total “Spider Man” worldwide gross now approaches $4 billion, all from an ordinary guy named Peter Parker who got bit by a radio-active spider. Marvel likes sequels. Even second-tier movies have sequels or spin-offs. “Daredevil” spun off “Elektra.” “Blade” has two sequels so far and there may be more. “Ghost Rider” begot “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.” “The Punisher,” a mild suc-

cess, spawned “Punisher: War Zone” which wasn’t. The two “Fantastic Four” movies brought in over $600 million and pleased a lot of folks. When Marvel began to make films based on the characters in the “Avengers” series, people began to line up around the block. “Iron Man” and two sequels began the parade in 2008. Two “Thor” films followed featuring Natalie Portman as the Norse God’s human girlfriend. “Captain America,” a character from WWII has been re-vamped to come into the contemporary world in two stand-alone films. In “Marvel’s The Avengers” we are treated to all of the characters in the same film. Scarlett Johansson will soon have her own film with her character of The Black Widow. Not all the best movies come from Marvel Comics, but a lot of the most popular films do. People like them. “Iron Man 3” broke into the rare stratosphere of billion-dollar films. The entire Marvel movie experience has brought the company over $15 billion in box office receipts. That represents an awful lot of happy people, people who happily part with their entertainment dollars to see movies made from comic book characters. The extra fine 1989 “Henry V” directed by and staring Kenneth Branagh cost $9 million to make and grossed only $10 million. I hesitate to comment on our popular culture when “Howard the Duck” was more than three times more popular than this example of the best actor/director with a play by William Shakespeare. It might make me sound snooty. And I like “X-Men” and “Thor.” But I like the serious films too. There is plenty of room at the multi-plex for both kinds, thank goodness.

uphill from Tonto Creek to try to seek shelter. Fueled by adrenaline, they moved a huge boulder in an attempt to find safety. They did not know if another even higher wall of water was to come. In the days after the flood there was a lot of ground that had to be covered to try to find survivors and those who had perished. The floodwaters exacted a heavy toll and there are stories of limbs being found in Gisela, over 25 miles downstream from Kohl’s Ranch. Those who had helped in the search still have questions about the things that they saw, including in one case, trying to find out the name of a girl whose lifeless body they had found in a tree. The Labor Day weekend flood of 1970 had a lasting effect on those who lived through it, those who lost friends and family members, and the landscape of the area. **** On to happier things… Here is a follow-up to the article of mine that ran in the special Arizona State University Football Camp Tontozona paper that the Roundup published. I talked about the importance of tradition and of seeing the players come through and grow every year. ASU radio color analyst and winning Sun Devil 1987 Rose Bowl quarterback Jeff Van Raaphorst echoed those thoughts in a couple of tweets on Aug. 17. (You can follow Van Raaphorst on Twitter at @JvanRaaphorst.) “Tontozona tradition, welcome new Devils to get excited about; Jefferson, Humphreys, Wren, Smallwood, Richard, Wilkins #YoungandTalented” “Respect to Coach Graham and the coaching staff for embracing

the camp Tontozona legacy. #ItallstartsontheHill” Ex-players coming back are another theme of Tontozona and one that I encountered first hand. After watching Thursday morning’s practice I headed back to Payson and my real estate office. While there, a couple stopped by our property management looking for a rental. The gentleman liked my ASU shirt and I thought that I recognized him from the practice. Sure enough he was there and it turned out that he played running back for Frank Kush and was part of the first Sun Devil team to practice at Tontozona in 1960. Remember my comments about the tradition of Tontozona being about more than just explayers? Robert “Coach” Fleming

was a longtime marching band director at ASU. While I didn’t march in college, I have fond memories of hearing his bands while at ASU band days as part of the Corona del Sol High School Marching Band. I was leaving the Saturday scrimmage in my friend Lyn’s golf cart when he saw Coach. Lyn was also a band director and started at Coronado High School the same year as Fleming did at ASU. Hearing the two talk was interesting and shows that Tontozona is a big part of Sun Devil tradition. Tontozona is not just part of ASU tradition, but the area around it as well. While the area around Kohl’s Ranch has changed greatly through the decades, ASU football at Tontozona is a connection to the past.

Hummingbird weighs less than a penny • It was German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche who made the following sage observation: “We have art to save ourselves from the truth.” • If you live in Waukegan, Illinois, you might be surprised to learn that your property tax is 12 times higher than it would be if you lived in Honolulu. • If you can’t remember the word you want to use, you’re suffering from lethologica. But you probably won’t remember that when it happens. • A hummingbird weighs less than a penny. • Have you ever made a bet when you’d been

drinking too much, and later wondered what you’d been thinking? If so, it might make you feel better to consider the case of a pilot named Thomas Fitzpatrick. In 1956, he was drinking at a bar in New York City when a rather boisterous argument ensued regarding his flying ability. To prove his skills to his drinking buddies, Fitzpatrick went to New Jersey, stole a small plane and landed it on the street in front of the Manhattan bar — all while allegedly drunk. The story, remarkable as it is, doesn’t end there, however. A couple of years later he was boasting about the incident, but his story was met with disbelief. To prove himself once again,

Prize pumpkins, a petting zoo and livestock auction are just some of the highlights of the Northern Gila County Fair coming Sept. 5-7 to the Payson Event Center.

Time-honored tradition 60th annual Northern Gila County Fair is Sept. 5-7 This year, Rim Country residents will celebrate 60 years of showing off the produce from their gardens, their skills with a thread and needle, their commitment and hard work raising livestock, their artistry with a camera and their culinary competence. This year, the 60th Northern Gila County Fair runs from Friday, Sept. 5 through Sunday, Sept. 7 at the Payson Event Center. Board chairman for the fair, Albert Hunt, said he and his volunteers are ready, except for a few details.

“There’s always (details),” he said. “The tents will be up, but we still have repairs on exhibits — we’ll do that a day or two before the fair opens.” The fair still needs volunteers, too. Call (928) 978-0556 if you’re available to help. Hunt did say the Fair Book filled with information on events, schedules and entries has been printed and is available at the Chamber of Commerce, the Payson Public Library, and the Town of Payson Parks and Recreation Office near Green Valley Lake. Hunt said everyone will drop off their entries on Wednesday, Sept. 3. Judging goes on all day Thursday, Sept. 4. Then the fair opens to the public on Friday. “Friday is the kids’ day,” he said. From 9 a.m. until about 1 p.m., school children from around Rim

Country spend the day wandering exhibits and petting critters. Also on Friday at noon is the big livestock show. The 4-H and high school FFA students will show off the animals they have raised all year. “This year we have 40 animals; more than we have ever had,” said 4-H coordinator Lani Hall. She said this year 4-H is celebrating 100 years. When asked why so many have raised animals, Hall said the current theory supposes raising animals teaches good lessons. “I think that families are getting back to basics and raising an animal teaches a good responsibility lesson,” she said. Hall also said there are often tears when kids realize the animal they have named and lived with for a year painstakingly feeding them, grooming them, caring for their hurts, and docu-

menting every food purchase or medical supply, will be on someone’s plate. “It’s a little bit of a tear jerker,” said Hall. She said this year the kids raised steers, pigs, lambs, goats and even a couple of turkeys that will be presented by the kids and then sold off at auction on Saturday. All animals have gone through a rigorous quality assurance program similar to what chain groceries go through. “The Buyer’s Auction Dinner starts at 2 p.m. on Saturday and the auction at 6 p.m.,” said Hall. “We’re hoping for a good turnout; the kids have been writing lots of letters.” Hall said if anyone is interested in participating in the auction, they may sign up before 2 p.m. on Saturday at the livestock area at the back of the fairgrounds.

The fair wraps up on Sunday with a motocross, said Hunt. “There will also be the Ranch Rodeo, but the motocross will be exciting,” he said.

County fair seeks photographers This year’s Northern Gila County Fair photography competition on Sept. 5-7 will feature hundreds of photographs, judged by Arizona Highways photographer Paul Gil. The Rim Country Camera Club will help organize the exhibit — and hopefully also recruit photographers for it’s Rim Country scenic calendar project. The group is taking submissions now to create a calendar that will raise money for Rim Country food banks. This year’s fair photography categories have changed slightly and will be Beginner/Intermediate, Advanced (more serious photographers), Junior (17 & under, and Senior (65 & over.) In addition to fair awards of $3 for blue ribbons, $2 for red ribbons and $1 for white ribbons, the camera club is proud to announce that the winner in the Junior category will be awarded an additional gift certificate for $150 toward any Arizona Highways Photographic Workshop. Camera club president Harold Rush said, “While we teach at the college, invite guest speakers and organize field trips, it is our youth that is the future of advancing photography. Each year the quality of the junior entries has increased to levels competing with some of the most advanced photographers. We are pleased to endorse and encourage these talented young photographers.” The judge for the county fair, will bring a professional’s eye to the proceedings. A native of the Arizona desert, Gill’s photographs have appeared on the cover and pages of Arizona Highways magazine, calendars and books along with National Geographic, Nature Conservancy, Natures Best magazine and many scenic publications, calendars and books as well as displayed in fine art galleries. Gill received his bachelors of fine arts from Arizona State University and had worked as an art director for 17 years including Art Director for the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, before turning all of his attention to photographing the grandeur of nature. Gill began photographing nature in 1975 with a 35mm film camera and shortly began working with medium format cameras in the ’80s then began working primarily with a wood 4x5 Wista field camera in the ’90s and now captures nature’s intimate slices of life and grand landscapes using digital SLR cameras. His books include, “Wild in Arizona: Photographing Arizona’s Wildflowers,” which he produced with fellow photographer, Colleen Miniuk-Sperry. The book has won multiple awards. Gill also teaches Arizona Highways Photo Workshops. He developed educational, field based itineraries and focuses on nature/landscape, travel, macro, portrait and architectural photography skill development. His workshops provide hands-on instruction to students in field sessions, as well as issuing thought provoking, growth based challenges and exercises for students to complete in the field. In addition, to promote photography and showcase Rim Country, the Rim Country Camera Club is holding a photograph competition where 13 winning photographs will be chosen and published in a 2015 Rim Country Calendar. The calendar will be 9 X 12 and in full color. It will be for sale at several local businesses and all profits will go to a local charities. Whether you are a professional, amateur, or hobbyist photographer, you have the opportunity to have one of your photos featured in the calendar and associated with a month. Please submit your photos of the Rim Country to gempressphotos@gmail.com by Sept. 1.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Changing your mind doesn’t come easily for Lambs, who place a high value on commitment. But new facts could emerge that might persuade you to rethink your situation. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a good time to put that fine Bovine’s eye for beauty to work in redecorating your home or workplace. And don’t forget to indulge yourself in some personal time as well. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your sense of loyalty to someone who asks for your help is commendable. But make sure there are no information gaps that should be filled in before you move too far too quickly. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t let difficult people raise the Crab’s ire levels this week. Avoid them if you can. If not, resist telling them off, even if you think they deserve it. Things improve by week’s end. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Your suspicions about a colleague might be on the mark. But you also could be misreading the signals you believe you’re getting. Do some discreet checking before jumping to conclusions. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take some time out from your many tasks and see if someone might be trying to reach out to you. You could be surprised to learn who it is and why you might want to reciprocate. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You still might want to do more investigating before taking on a new commitment. Later would not be the time to try to fill in any crucial gaps in what you need to know about it. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A new opportunity should be carefully studied. It might offer some of the things you’ve been looking for. Or it could contain new possibilities you never considered. Check it out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might have to work harder this week to get people to listen to what you have to say. But if you stay with it, you could start to get your message out to many by the week’s end. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Although family matters again take up a big chunk of the Goat’s time, the week also offers a chance to explore a new career move you’d been contemplating for a while. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Applying your practicality (what does it offer me?) and your creativity (how can I improve on it?) could provide sound reasons for seriously considering that new offer. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) The single set will find that keeping their romantic aspirations on high gives Cupid a better target to aim at. Paired Pisces will find that this week helps reinforce their relationships. BORN THIS WEEK: You believe in encouraging others to demand the best from themselves. You would be a fine sports coach, as well as an enlightened teacher. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
