TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
IDEAS FOR SEASONAL TRAVEL It’s hard to believe, but fall is upon us, and winter not that far away. I hope you were able to take a nice vacation this past summer visiting loved ones or perhaps touring or taking a cruise. Many of us are beginning to think of where we would like to travel to this fall or winter or perhaps even making reservations for travel next summer. Personally, I have found that by planning travel far ahead of time I can enjoy the details of putting the entire trip together before leaving home. Reservations are so important in order to secure hotels/motels, tours, automobile trips and cruises. I have noticed in the past few weeks that tour and cruise companies are increasing prices for 2015. This would change if we experience a terrorist bombing or aircraft hijacking between now and next summer. When safety conditions become “iffy” then the public pulls back and sits it out at home for many months until conditions feel more secure in the area we wish to travel. I want to begin with some short cruises on the Golden Princess sailing out of Los Angeles in October and November of this year as well as January and February of 2015. For instance, the ship departs Los Angeles November 3 and cruises to Santa Barbara and Ensenada before returning to Los Angeles. This is a four-day, three-night cruise on a beautiful ship with a fantastic crew and fine dining. Princess does a wonderful job of Metro Creative Services pleasing passengers.

While best known for his were made from these books and novels, he also wrote a number of Grey insisted that they be filmed in non-fiction pieces chronicling his the region. Gradually, the remote
place that he loved became a little less remote and over time would come to be known as “Zane Grey Country”. October was Zane Grey time in Rim Country. It is a month that features changing colors and opportunities to hunt game before winter sets in. The area where Babe Haught and his family lived features some of the best scenery that the region has to offer. A journey along Tonto Creek in mid-October showcases fall at its best. The surrounding mountainside fills with various shades of red and yellow. This was where Grey came
to hunt and relax. It didn’t take very long for him to have the Haughts build him a place under the Rim. The Coconino Sun newspaper in Flagstaff discussed it in a July 8, 1921 article. “He who sighed for a “Lodge in some vast wilderness,” would be content if he could change places with Babe Haught, up on the rim of the Mogollon and luxuriate in a hunting lodge recently built there by Zane Grey, author of “Riders of the Purple Sage” and other western tales.… “In order to get local color, the novelist built a commodious hunt-
ing lodge about twenty miles north of Payson, over towards the head of Tonto, a beautiful, large building on the rim of the Mogollon mountains, and there, near the scenes of the tragedies and amid the people familiar with the events, he lived in spirit the Pleasant valley war. The lodge is comfortably furnished, the floors covered with skins of wild animals and the walls hung with trophies of the chase.” This cabin was on about three acres taken from the Haught homestead near where Tonto Fish Hatchery now sits. Throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, many who sought to see what Grey saw visited Grey’s cabin. Times have changed. His cabin under the Rim is gone. It burned in the Dude Fire of 1990, though a replica has since been built at Payson’s Green Valley Park. A gated subdivision now sits where the cabin stood. Each October though is a chance to step back in time. A road winds along Tonto Creek toward the Rim, ending less than a mile from where his cabin once stood. The canyons in which he hunted and the vistas that he once saw surround it. It is a place where people can experience much of what Zane Grey did and see the same colors and changing of the seasons.
IN THE KITCHEN
Score a touchdown this football season Football season can only mean one thing - time to grab the best seat in the house, and we’re not talking about at the stadium. In fact, 77 percent of Americans think the best seat in the house is at home in front of their television, according to a recent survey by McIlhenny Company, maker of Tabasco brand products. Instead of heading to the stadium, keep the tailgate at home and throw a “homegating” party. The ultimate homegate is not only about the football game it’s about the food. In fact, the survey found the following: • 78 percent of American adults think good food can make up for a bad game. • Americans spend, on average, 42
percent of the game eating or drinking. • Over half of Americans (57 percent) voted the grill as the most important appliance when hosting a homegate. For a homegate touchdown, banish the boring and serve beerinfused chili, which is sure to please all your family, friends and football fans. For other ways to spice up game day, visit www.tabasco.com.
SUPER GOOD CHILI Preparation time: 15 minutes; cooking time: 30 minutes; makes six servings 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1-1/2 pounds ground beef chuck 1 large onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin 1, 12-ounce can diced tomatoes 2, 16-ounce cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed 1, 16-ounce can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed 1, 12-ounce can or bottle beer 1, 4-ounce can diced green chilies 1 tablespoon TABASCO brand Original Red Sauce 1-1/2 teaspoons salt Shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, optional Heat oil in 5-quart saucepot over medium heat. Add beef and cook until well browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove to bowl. Add onion and garlic to drippings remaining in skillet; cook over medium heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Return meat to saucepot; stir in cumin. Cook 1 minute. Stir in diced tomatoes with liquid, pinto beans, red kidney beans, beer,
green chilies, Tabasco Sauce and salt. Heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 20 minutes to blend

ARToberFEST
Autumn brings great beauty with art show
Falling, fiery-colored leaves; blinding, brilliant blue skies; a hint of wood smoke in the early morning and cool evening air – Autumn has arrived in Rim Country and with it comes one of the area’s biggest arts events. The Payson Art League ARToberFEST Fine Art & Fine Craft Show & Sale is this month. The event is at the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino Event Center Friday, Oct. 17, Saturday, Oct 18 and Sunday, Oct. 19. The show is
open from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Friday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. This year, the PAL ARToberFEST has long-time Payson resident Conrad Okerwall as its featured artist. He will be joined by 20 other artists; some from the Rim Country, others from elsewhere. All are juried into the show.
ABOUT OKERWALL
Conrad Okerwall was part of the Rim Country and Western lifestyle long before coming to the area in 1988. He was a collector of Zane Grey books — for the art on the dust jackets — and stood out at his advertising agency in Chicago in his cowboy garb. In fact, the tales Zane Grey told in his
many novels were what drew Okerwall to Payson from the Windy City. A graduate of the American Academy of Art in Chicago, a member and past president of PAL, Okerwall paints and draws in the mood of the Rim Country. He is known as a Western artist, but he does not limit himself. One of his favorite works is a scene of birdwatchers intently peering through binoculars out in the field, while their prey observes them from tree branch behind them. He tells a tale in each of his Western paintings. “I always try to put a little story into the paintings,” said Okerwall. “I love to paint Western themes.” “I like to put some humor into my work,” he added. One humorous piece is called “horse power” and features three downtrodden cowboys pushing an old, blue pickup up the street. Both scenes — the birdwatchers and cowboys — were actually witnessed by Okerwall, committed to memory and brought back to life in his studio, The Sleeping Artist Indian Hill Studio. The contents of Okerwall’s paintings also arise from his imagination. “I’ve got more ideas than I’ll ever be able to paint,” said Okerwall, Okerwall works in many mediums, including acrylics, pen & ink/watercolors, pencil and pastels. However, said his favorite medium is acrylics. His Western art features people and scenery, but he also has a large number of Zane Grey portraits in his portfolio and does commission work as well. He was com-
missioned by a fellow member of the Zane Grey Society to design a book cover and has also done a couple of commissioned portraits. “I enjoy all of it,” he said. While Okerwall does not teach, he is willing to give some advice to aspiring artists: “Study other artists’ work. Subscribe to art magazines. Take a class in drawing, which is very important. You have to know how to draw.” ABOUT PAL
ARToberFEST is one of two large programs presented each year by the PAL. The other is the spring ’Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour. The PAL is a non-profit organization with the sole purpose of broadening awareness and appreciation of the arts in Rim Country. In support of this program a piece of art created by each artist is donated to the Payson Art League Education Fund and displayed for raffle. Raffle tickets are available at both events. The monies collected annually (approximately $2,000) from Payson Art League event raffles are used to purchase art supplies for: Payson Head Start, Julia Randall Elementary School, Payson Community Christian School, The Shelby School (Tonto Village), Payson Center for Success, Payson Community Kids, Tonto Basin School, The Son Shine Club, Whispering Hope Ranch. The funds are also used to buy library books for the three elementary schools. Members provide hands-on art experiences in the elementary schools as well. The PAL meets the third Tuesday of each month (except December) at The Church of the Nazarene, 200 E. Tyler Parkway, with a CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You could be caught in a torrent of advice from well-meaning friends and colleagues this week. But remember, Lamb, you are at your best when you are your own inimitable self. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Expect strong efforts to get you to accept things as they are and not question them. But ignore all that and continue your inquiries until you’re sure you have all the answers you need. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Heavier than usual family and workplace duties compete for your time this week. Try to strike a balance so that you’re not overwhelmed by either. Pressures ease by week’s end. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s a good time for the Moon Child to show off your uniquely inspired approach to the culinary skills — especially if they’re directed toward impressing someone special. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might be happy about the re-emergence of a long-deferred deal. But don’t pounce on it quite yet. Time can change things. Be sure the values you looked for before are still there. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Try to rein in your super-critical attitude, even if things aren’t being done quite as you would prefer. Remember: What you say now could create an awkward situation later on. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Although you can expect on-the-job cooperation from most of your colleagues this week, some people might insist on knowing more about your plans before they can accept them. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Creating another way to do things is commendable. But you could find some resistance this week from folks who would rather stick with the tried-and-true than try something new. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You usually can keep your aim focused on your goal. But you might need to make adjustments to cope with unsteadiness factors that could arise over the course of the week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) News arrives about a projected move. Be prepared to deal with a series of possible shifts, including starting and finishing times, and how much the budget will actually cover. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A new relationship needs time to develop. Let things flow naturally. It could be a different story with a workplace situation, which might require faster and more focused attention. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Accept a compliment without trying to troll for any hidden reason beyond what was said. After all, don’t you deserve to be praised every now and then? Of course you do. BORN THIS WEEK: You like to weigh all possibilities before making a decision. You would be a fine judge, or even be a star in a jury room. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
