TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
FALL TRAVEL NEWS
Fall is a wonderful time of year. The heat of summer is over and we pursue our normal habits of living. We await the beautiful fall colors and short trips out of town to shop, visit friends and relatives and time to relax. Today I will give you some travel ideas that you may be interested in as the season cools down. Princess Cruises has recently announced short three- and fourday cruises out of Los Angeles. The itineraries vary depending on the sail date and length of cruise. These cruises will begin in early fall and continue into the winter. Ports of call KEN BROOKS may include San Diego, Santa Barbara, Catalina Island and all cruises will visit Ensenada, Mexico. Fares begin at a low $199 per person for an interior cabin doing a three-day cruise. All of these “sampler” cruises will include all meals on board ship in the standard restaurant, your lodging and entertainment and deck fun including a swimming pool. The ship will also have a casino open during sea days for your pleasure. Your cabin will be cleaned twice per day by the room attendant. If you can, book a veranda cabin giving you private space outside away from other passengers. You might remember a cruise ship that operated three- and four-day Mexico cruises out of Los Angeles some years ago called the Azure Seas. It was very successful and lots of fun. It really was a floating party ship. Princess Cruises is in the premium class of cruise lines and these short getaway cruises should be good samplers. Most of today’s cruise ships are large enough that you rarely feel any motion while you are traveling the open seas. You can drive to Los Angeles and park near the dock. It’s easy and you should fully enjoy a short fall vacation. Adventure travel has had significant growth with Americans in the last several years. A recently released study shows that adventure travel has been growing 65 percent year over year since 2009. It is now a $263 billion industry, and it is still growing. And, interesting to note that some destinations that were once considered an adventure are now falling into the standard category. On average, an adventure traveler’s daily spending (excluding air fare and gear) is $947. The Galapagos Islands are about 1,000 miles off the Ecuadorean coast of South America and are considered adventure travel by many. Several companies have small boats that take passengers to several of these islands from their land base on one of the islands. You would fly from Guayaquil, Ecuador to the islands. Then, board one of the boats and begin you cruise through these islands to explore the animal and sea life that abounds. Your expedition would visit Isla Bartolome, Isla Santiago, Isla Santa Cruz, Isla Isabela, Isla Floreana and Isla Fernandina and Isla Es-
You can rent Richard Branson’s Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands group for a mere $42,500 per night while its Great House is being rebuilt. You could invite up to 22 guests to join you and split the rent. Oh sure! At Orca Island, Alaska you can rent five cabins for you and your friends at the low price of $2,150 per night. You would get yourself to Seward and it’s just a half-hour by water-taxi plane to the island. Here, you can see whales while kayaking or boating with fishing gear. It is quiet and out back here if that is what you are looking for. On Eagle Island, Ga. the weekday rates are $600 per night for up to 12 guests. It’s actually a 10-acre isle off the coast of Georgia surrounded by salt marsh that’s a lovely setting for crabbing. Transportation to and from the island is included. Boat rentals are available. The lodge sleeps 12 and has a huge wraparound porch built largely of recycled materials such as vintage brick. There’s a lot of fall left for your pleasure and enjoyment. Make the most of it!

Adventure travel can take many forms and get a tourist up close and personal with the wild, wonderful and unique.
panola. Each of these islands is reached by kayaking or other means. You are allowed to photograph, but not touch the various species of turtles, penguins, birds, etc. These animals and birds are not afraid of humans because “man” has never been allowed to kill here. One of the most outstanding companies to take tourists to the Galapagos is Lindblad/National Geographic. They have an excellent reputation, and their cruise boats are near deluxe. Other areas considered adventure travel would include Antarctica, parts of India, east and central Africa, New Guinea, the upper Amazon River and a few more. We find that the adventure traveler does not always have to have a four or five star hotel when visiting the boonies. The INTRAV company specializes in luxury travel in various parts of the world. You visit thrilling destinations while staying in the best hotels available. INTRAV also owns a Boeing 757-300ER aircraft outfitted with only 50 first class, lay flat beds/seats with an attendant for every 10 passengers. That’s luxury first class, folks! It covers several areas of the world including round-the-world tours in their private airliner. A fairly new company is the Un-Cruise Safari Explorer boat that spends much of the year in Hawaii. The 36-passenger Explorer gives passengers seven days visiting Maui, Molokai, Lanai and the Big Island of Hawaii. You have plenty of time to see humpback spouts, flukes and acrobatic breaches and also numerous opportunities to explore some of the state’s best-preserved coral reef ecosystems. You cruise the reefs to witness many samples of sea life. There are several locations at Olowalu where green sea turtles go to have parasites and dead tissue or scales cleaned off their bod-
ies. You can deep sea dive and explore other areas from the boat. Contact www.uncruise.com for more information. Ever considered a long train trip? The Trans-Siberian Express runs along a lengthy railroad between Russia’s eastern port of Vladivostok and Moscow. It involves a network of domestic and international trains crisscrossing countries and borders. You could begin a trip in Beijing, or Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia and get off in Moscow. Golden Eagle luxury trains based in England operates on the classic 5,772-mile route between Moscow and Valdivostok and is the most expensive of the operating trains on this route. All compartments have bathroom facilities en suite and most tips are included. Tour operator MIR Corporation offers seats on the Golden Eagle for a 13-day trek across Siberia starting at $15,495 per person, double occupancy in the Silver Class category and rising to $29,995, double occupancy for a top-of-the-line Imperial Suite. You can stop along the way on some of these trips, which might include Mongolia, Ulan UdeIrkutsk, Lake Baikal and Yekaterilnburg where Russia’s last emperor, Nicholas II and his family lived and were executed. The tour company will assist you in deciding which itinerary to join. This would be a very memorable trip and you would come home with many stories and photos of great interest to all. To obtain more information contact: Smithsonian Journeys, MIR and National Geographic Expeditions or visit the Web site www.goldeneagleluxurytrains.com. How about renting a home on your own private island? You can do that if you have the cash and desire. Garden Villas for two run about $1,000 per night on the Fijian Island of Vomo. Here, you can hike, fish, swim and just relax in this far-away destination.

If you have the time this fall, think about getting out into a different world.

I met Ed and his wife a number of years ago in Payson while he was researching the book. I shared what I had on August Pieper, Pinal Brewery, and Payson Brewery, and Ed showed me a sampling of what he already had. I knew at the time that he was going to have an incredible book and was surprised that it took him this long to get it out. (I couldn’t wait to see his finished product.) Without a doubt though, it was worth the wait. The book is loaded not just with information, but with photographs. Sipos did a great job of covering the entire state. The Payson area is well represented, with pictures of August Pieper and old town Payson. Folks who remember Arizona Brewing Company and A-1 beer will love Sipos’ extensive history and photographs of the company. He interviewed many people who had worked for them during the 1940s and 1950s. Sipos also paid attention to modern day breweries, including some that never materialized. One such brewery was the one that was to have gone in at Western Village in Payson. Sipos includes an illustration of the proposed brewery.
Fans of now defunct Arizona breweries such as the Bandersnatch and Rio Salado Brewing will enjoy the trip down memory lane. As I
said earlier, Sipos put a lot of time in on this book – over a decade, and it really paid off. If you’re a beer fan it’s a must have.

NOW ABOUT ALL THOSE APPLES It has been a banner year for apples from all accounts, so here are some recipes to make use of the bumper crop. EASY APPLE COBBLER From Peggy Martin’s Cookin’ for Health class at the Payson Public Library, adapted from The Old Mill Farmhouse Kitchen, 2013. 6 cups thinly sliced Granny Smith apples 6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces juice of 3 lemons 1/3 cup sugar plus 2 tablespoons (divided) 1/2 cup apple juice 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon allspice 1 cup oat flour CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

COVER STORY CONTINUED
Bounty of apples this fall FROM PAGE 6
1 cup whole wheat flour 1-1/3 cup buttermilk Place a medium size casserole in center of a cold oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix apples, 3 tablespoons butter, apple juice, lemon juice, 1/3 cup sugar, and spices in a medium saucepan; cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently, until butter and sugar melt. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix flour and 2 tablespoons sugar in a bowl; cut in butter pieces until crumbly. Drizzle buttermilk over top and toss with fork until dough forms. Pour apple mixture into hot casserole; spoon dough over filling. Bake until biscuit topping is cooked and filling is bubbly — about 45 minutes. Let cool before serving.
APPLE BREAD From Marilyn Lamb, Kohl’s Ranch, published in the Hellsgate Fire Department Auxiliary’s “Fireflies Can Cook.” 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup Crisco 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups chopped apple 1/2 cup chopped nuts Topping 1 tablespoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon Cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Fold in apples and nuts. Top with sugar and cinnamon. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes.
APPLE CAKE From Vicki Grootegoed, Christopher Creek, published in the Hellsgate Fire Department Auxiliary’s “Fireflies Can Cook.” 4 Winesap or McIntosh apples 2/3 cup sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup orange juice 1 cup vegetable oil 2-1/2 teaspoons vanilla 4 eggs, beaten 3 cups flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/8 teaspoon salt Peel, core and slice apples and set aside. Mix 2/3 cup sugar with the cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside. Combine 2 cups of sugar, orange juice, oil, vanilla and eggs and mix until well blended. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add to the egg mixture and mix well. Pour half the batter into a greased tube or Bundt pan. Add a layer of half the apples and sprinkle with half the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat. Bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then invert the cake onto a serving plate. Serves 12 to 16.
Two of my personal favorites using apples are an apple and oatmeal cake my mother made for my birthday one year and apple butter.
APPLE CAKE WITH OATMEAL AND SPICES From About.com – Southern Food 3 cups of apples, peeled and chopped 1/2 cup of water 1 cup of brown sugar, packed, divided 2 cups sifted flour 1 teaspoon of baking powder 1 teaspoon of baking soda 1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon of allspice 1 cup of oatmeal 1/2 cup of seedless raisins 1/2 cup of chopped pecans 2 eggs, beaten 1/4 cup of melted shortening or oil Combine the chopped apples, water and 1/2 cup of the brown sugar. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the apples are almost tender and then cool. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, oatmeal, raisins and pecans; stir in the cooled apple mixture, eggs, remaining brown sugar, and the oil. Mix together until just moistened. Bake in a 10-inch tube pan for about 40 minutes at 350 degrees. Cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Serve the bread warm or cold. Frosting 1/2 cup butter (4 ounces) 1 cup brown sugar 3 to 5 tablespoons milk 1 box confectioners sugar (1 pound), about 4 cups Cook butter and sugar together until well blended and sugar is dissolved. Add 3 tablespoons milk and 1 box of confectioners sugar. Beat and add just enough milk to spread.
ALL DAY APPLE BUTTER From Allrecipes.com 5-1/2 pounds apples – peeled, cored and finely chopped 4 cups white sugar 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1/4 teaspoon salt Place the apples in a slow cooker. In a medium bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Pour the mixture over the apples in the slow cooker and mix well. Cover and cook on high 1 hour. Reduce heat to low and cook 9 to 11 hours, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thickened and dark brown. Uncover and continue cooking on low 1 hour. Stir with a whisk, if desired, to increase smoothness. Spoon the mixture into sterile containers, cover and refrigerate or freeze. Makes 4 pints.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A bid for you to step in and take over an incomplete project could prove to be an excellent learning experience that you can take with you when a new opportunity opens up. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s a good time for socializing, both with family and with friends. Your aspects also favor developing new relationships, any or all of which might become especially meaningful. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your success in handling a recent difficult situation prompts a request to handle another workplace problem. But this is one you should accept only if you get all of the relevant facts. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) New information about a past decision raises some unsettling questions from an old friend. Be prepared to explain your actions fully and, if necessary, to make adjustments. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is not a good time to share personal secrets, even with someone you’ve known for a long while. What you don’t reveal now won’t come back to haunt you later. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Pushing yourself to meet a project deadline is admirable. But be careful not to leave out important details in your rush to complete your work and send it off. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Watch that you don’t take on more than you can handle when offering to help someone with a personal problem. There might be hidden factors you weren’t told about. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) That major move you’ve been considering could come sooner than you expected. Make sure you’ll be ready with the facts you need when decision time arrives. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Languishing relationships can benefit from a break in routine. Get out of the rut and do something new and maybe more than a little unpredictable this weekend. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Although you don’t think of yourself as a role model, your ability to make a tough decision at this time sets an example for others, who admire your courage. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You need to move any remaining obstacles out of your way before you can take on a new challenge. Seek advice from close, trusted friends and associates. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A career change appears increasingly likely to happen during the next several weeks. It’s a good idea to start now to prepare, so you can be ready to make the move when the time comes. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a strong sense of obligation to justice, which inspires others to follow your example and do the right thing. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Blood pressure readings can vary BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. ©2013 NORTH AMERICA SYND.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My question is about taking blood pressure readings. I am 87 years old, female, about 5 feet, 5 inches tall and weigh about 130 pounds. When I go for a checkup with my general practitioner, the nurse takes my blood pressure before I see the doctor. The cuff feels comfortable, and the reading is always in the normal range. I have had my blood pressure checked at other places (clinics, etc.) and usually the cuff is inflated very tight (so tight that it hurts) and the reading is very high. If the cuff is inflated too tightly, could it cause a high reading? — I.S. ANSWER: High blood pressure is one of the most common medical conditions, and correct treatment of blood pressure is essential in order to reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. It is not uncommon for blood pressure to vary from day to day, or even during a single day, but the changes you describe suggest two possibilities. The first is that the reading at your own doctor’s office is right, and the other places are wrong, which is probably the most likely. Having blood pressure tested in a new place or by someone you don’t know certainly can cause the reading to be elevated. Automated blood pressure cuffs in pharmacies, etc., are sometimes right but often are wrong — occasionally spectacularly. A very high pressure in the cuff, high enough to cause pain, can cause the blood pressure to go up, but not usually high enough to put people into the hypertensive range. Another possibility is that the nurse in your doctor’s office isn’t inflating the cuff high enough to get the correct reading, or deflating the cuff too quickly. The wrong-size cuff can lead to large errors in blood pressure readings. While all of these are possible, a trained nurse who takes blood pressure readings every day is not likely to make errors consistently. You can ask your doctor to double-check the nurse’s reading. High blood pressure is one of the most common ailments for the general population. The booklet on it describes what it does and how it’s treated.

Fifteen minutes after taking a shower, I start itching, and the itch lasts about 20 minutes. It doesn’t matter if I use hot or cold water. What is this? — O.J. ANSWER: I’m not sure. It might be aquagenic pruritus. “Pruritus” is the medical word for itchiness. Pretreatment with an antihistamine before showering can sometimes prevent the itching. Take it about an hour before you shower. Tiny hives also break out on the skin. They may be so tiny you can’t see them, or they may be in places where you can’t see them. I don’t know if I’m correct. Aquagenic pruritus is so rare that I never expected to hear anyone complain of it. Get this confirmed by a dermatologist.
