Stressed
Are you stressed at your job? I know when it comes to the deadline
for this magazine, my stress level goes up to the point of potential
eruption (Mt. St. Helens, take a seat).
Stress in the workplace. It allows some people to focus while others
fold under the pressure. The key is realizing when it is time to take a
break before you break.
The question then arises: How do we relieve stress? For some it is as
simple as kicking back and watching a movie or working in the garden. Then there are those that like to go out and socialize after work
or perhaps even strap on a guitar and play rockstar for a night. Maybe
even heading out for the weekend to the great outdoors or catching a
racing event on the tv or... in person.
Racing. There is nothing quite like it. The adrenaline, the thunder of
the roaring engines and going as fast as you can! Drag racing, motorcross, stock cars... and the list goes on. Of course, the popularity
of NASCAR has never been bigger. Several of us here at Ritz Family
Publishing, Inc. find racing to be a stress reliever. Our president, Michael Ritz, enjoys blasting his Corvette 100+ mph down the quarter
mile at Firebird Raceway. Sales Manager, Chuck Paterson’s kids tear
it up on the dirt track. Administrative Secretary, Amy Gronewoller’s
husband races his stock car at Meridian Speedway while she cheers
him on. If you like racing, then check out the Racing Across The West
feature.
The outdoors. For some of us, we would just assume heading to the
hills and go fishing, pack up the camping gear to go smell the pine
needles or simply escape to enjoy the solitude that nature has to offer. There is just something appealing about waking up to the morning
sun, not knowing the time and not having to know while everyone
else is fighting rush hour traffic. If the outdoors is your thing, be sure
to check out the Dutch Oven Cooking article in the Enjoying The Outdoors feature.
The next time you feel the stress taking over, take a moment and
remind yourself that it is just a job. Leave your work at work and enjoy
the fruits of your labor. I know it’s time for me to go strap on the guitar.
Heck, I might even catch a race!

Motocross is a relatively safe sport. Needless to say, our
insurance carrier and common sense require a parent or
legal guardian to sign up a minor rider to race. For legal
purposes, we need a liability release and a minor release
form filled out by your parents. For safety sake, you need
your parents with you in case you are hurt and need medical treatment.
If your parent can’t come with you, there is a way to ride.
However, you have to be prepared before coming to the
track! You must bring a notarized permission note from
your parent. Please refer to our website to see an example
of a permission note. www.pleasantvalleycyclepark.com
Pleasant Valley Cycle Park is Boise, Idaho’s Newest
and only PUBLIC Motocross Facility. Our main track
is watered with a state of the art sprinkler system. It
also has a 40 rider concrete starting gate that you will
only find at the finest facilities. We have designed our
track to improve every skill level of riding. Our tracks
are Fun to Ride. Located 10 Miles South of Boise, it
is a quick, convenient drive to one of the areas most
exciting riding areas.

NAPSI)-Although he made his career driving around a track
at speeds of more than 180 mph, Rusty Wallace, newly retired
NASCAR driver and Nextel Cup champion, loves spending
low-key time on the open road with his wife and their three
children. The Wallace family knows road trips can be stressful,
especially when you add kids to the mix. However, with a little
planning, creativity and preparation, road trips can be a cherished experience for all. Here are a few tips from the professional to make your next road trip fun for the entire family:
• Safety first. “In the early days of my racing career, drivers had to be mechanics too,” Wallace said. “I know the importance of making sure your vehicle is in tip-top condition.”
Wallace recommends having a mechanic perform a once-over
on your vehicle before the trip. But don’t forget to pack an
emergency road kit just in case.
• Plan ahead. “With today’s unpredictable fuel costs, a wrong
turn can be costly,” said Wallace. He recommends a trip-planning tool such as Microsoft Streets & Trips 2006 with GPS
Locator to help your family map out the perfect route in advance. With a reassuring voice to guide the way and mapping
information that is accurate and easy to use, you’ll know exactly what to expect along the way. Streets & Trips 2006 with
GPS Locator goes beyond simple driving directions to provide
travelers with an easy way to plan personalized trips.
• Keep the kids entertained. Taking vacations is supposed to
be fun, but after spending hours in the car your family may
arrive at the destination in anything but a good mood. “Nowadays it’s easy to keep kids entertained with portable DVD players and such, but then you miss some valuable bonding time.
Our family plays games and takes a lot of breaks to stretch our
legs and take in the scenery,” said Wallace.
• Make pit stops fun. What would the great American road trip
be without experiencing a bit of classic roadside Americana?
From the World’s Largest Ball of Twine in Cawker City, Kan.,
to the 18-foot-tall Paul Bunyan statue in Bemidji, Minn., there
are landmarks all over the country to be discovered. If you are
ever in Rusty Wallace’s home state of North Carolina, he recommends visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
• Make it a family affair. The journey is an important part
of the trip, particularly when you’re traveling by car. It’s an
opportunity to see new places and spend time together as a
family. Wallace suggests involving the entire family in the
planning. “A weekend fishing trip may not always be the ideal
getaway for my wife and daughter,” Wallace said, “but if the
whole family is involved in the preparation, we can plan activities that will make everyone happy.”

DUTCH OVEN COOKING IS BACK
D
utch oven cooking is bringing the past back with recipes
from an era when a cowboy’s
day would start with a cup of coffee at
the chuck wagon. On the old time cattle drives, the cook was sometimes an
aging cowboy hired for his ability to
drive a wagon more than his cooking
skills. He was in charge of the wagon
and everything related to it. The cook
was paid more than the other hands
because the success of the camp and
the drive depended greatly on him. A
cowhand earned about a dollar a day
and the cook made twice as much.
Rules around the chuck wagon were
forbidden to eat at the chuck wagon
table, could never ride their horse
through the “kitchen.” The cowboys
always rode downwind of the wagon,
so the dust they stirred up wouldn’t
blow into the food.
History:
Dutch ovens have been used by people for hundreds of years and are still
popular today.
When the American frontier was being settled, pioneers cooked outdoors,
in a fireplace or in a lean-to behind the
cabin. Large, heavy cast iron pots were
made with lids and placed directly into
the coals of an open fire. It has been
said that the skilled craftsman did the
final design of the Dutch oven. The
cast iron pot was produced in large
numbers by New England manufactures. Dutch traders purchased many
of these pots for trading with Indians.
The Pots became known as “Dutch
Ovens.” The most important pieces of
equipment for the pioneers coming out
west were their large Dutch ovens.
Yes, Dutch oven cooking is back and
is perfect for any type of outdoor activity. But you don’t have to go on an
outdoor trip to enjoy Dutch oven cooking. You can cook right in your own
backyard. Instead of barbecuing, do it
in a Dutch! Fire up the briquettes and
start cooking away. Your guests will
beg to be invited back. Think of all the
possibilities such as fresh baked bread

that will rise up and lift the lid, cobblers made from berries picked fresh,
deep-dish pizzas, stews, that melt in
your mouth, and Cornish game hens
roasted to perfection. You can even
duplicate your home recipes on the
campfire using the Dutch oven.
When deciding on a Dutch oven, there
are a few things to keep in mind,
“Should I buy cast iron or aluminum?”
Both have some advantages, Aluminum ovens weigh about one-third
less than the cast iron. They require
no curing and can be used over open
fires, buried underground, or used with
coals or briquettes. However, aluminum Dutch ovens do not retain heat as
well nor distribute it as evenly as cast
iron. The flavoring of foods can take
on a chalky taste whereas iron ovens
give a smoked flavor to foods.
Dutch ovens have a flat bottom sitting of three short legs protruding
about two inches. It has a strong wire
bail and the lid is made of the same
heavy cast iron material with a small

handle in the center. The rim of the lid
is flanged so that hot coals will stay
on the lid while cooking. Dutch ovens come in different sizes with the
12” pot being the most popular. They
range in weight from 7 to 30 lbs.
Look over your Dutch oven before
buying it; check the fit of the lid. It
should lie flush with the lip of the oven
all the way around with no significant
gaps. Also look at the casting or thickness of the metal especially around
the rim. There will be sometimes inconsistencies. However, areas that
are 15% (or more) thicker or thinner
than the remaining areas will produce
hot or cold spots during cooking and
cooling. This variance in thickness
will also make the oven more likely
to crack or warp the most commonly
used are 10-inch, 12-inch, and 14-inch
ovens.
Preparing the Dutch oven for cooking
wash the pot thoroughly with hot water
and soap with a brillo-pad.to take off
the manufacturers protective waxes /
oils. This should be the only time your
Dutch oven will be washed with soap.
Dry the pot quickly so it doesn’t rust.
Season the pot with a thin coat of vegetable oil or shortening using a cotton
cloth. I thought I was using the correct
kind of oil, which ended up being salad oil that made everything sticky. Do
all surfaces inside and out including
the lid. Do not use butter, margarine,
or salad oil. Place your Dutch oven,
with its lid ajar, in your home oven
at 350 degrees for one hour. Open the
windows – a slightly unpleasant odor
and some smoking may occur. After
baking, allow the oven to cool slowly. Apply another thin coating of oil
while it is still warm. Bake the oven
again for one hour and let it cool to
the point where it can be handled. Reapply a thin coat of oil for the third
and last time. Your oven is now ready
to use. You will notice that the oven
has turned golden in color but continued use will form a real black surface.
The blacker the pot, the better. This
procedure will only have to be done
once unless rust forms or the coating
is damaged in storage or use. If that
happens it is easy to season the pot

again.
All recipes use one of two Dutch oven
techniques, cooking with your Dutch
oven or cooking in it. The first is when
the food is placed directly in the bottom of the Dutch oven. The second
method, food is places in a second
dish and then placed onto a trivet in
the bottom of the Dutch oven. The
reason for the trivet is to elevate the
dish above the bottom of the oven to
prevent burning. A Dutch oven lid can
be sued as a skillet for cooking eggs or
pancakes over an open fire.
Cooking with a Dutch oven can be
used to deep fat frying, shallow frying, roasting, baking, boiling or stewing. The formula for controlling the
heat in a Dutch oven is simple.
Take the size of your oven, for example a 12”, add three more coal briquettes to the top (15), the subtract
three from the bottom (9). This technique will maintain an even temperature of 325 to 350 degrees. For every
2 coals added or subtracted to this
amount, the temperature will be affected by 25 degrees.
8” oven – 10-11 coals on top / 5-6
coals on bottom
10” oven – 13 coals on top / 7 coals
on bottom
on bottom
on bottom
on bottom
This is a good formula to start with
but take into account that it will vary
from food to food, wind conditions
(if cooking outdoors) and outside air
temperature. Here are some general
guidelines to use when experimenting
with the Dutch oven.
Soups, stew or liquid dishes need
more heat on the bottom than on the
lid. Place 2/3 of the coals below and
1/3 of the coals on top.
Meat, poultry, potatoes, vegetables
and cobblers require equal distribution
of heat on top and bottom.
Cakes, bread, biscuits and cookies
require most of the heat to be on top
of the oven with very little on the bottom. Place 1/3 of the coals on bottom
and 2/3 of the coals on top.
There are a few more things to remember about temperature control. Rotating the oven a third of a turn every
ten minutes is helpful. Rotate the lid a
third of a turn in the other direction.
If you are baking bread, rolls or cake,
remove the oven from the bottom coals
after 2/3 of the cooking time. It will
finish cooking from the top heat. This
will keep the bottom from burning.
The following is a guide showing
which pots are more useful according
to serving size and type of food:
5” oven = 1 pint – serves 1-2
8” oven = 2 quarts – serves 2-4
12 deep “ = 8 quarts – serves 16-20
14 deep” = 10 quarts – serves 22-28
Dutch ovens are also great for “stack
cooking.” After the first Dutch oven is
heated properly, a second oven can be
set on top with coals added to its lid.
Try cooking a main course in a 14”
oven with a 10” oven on top baking

bread at the same time.
Cleaning and caring for your Dutch
oven, when cleaning scrape it out with
a spatula. Then, boil an inch or two of
water in the oven to steam it out. After
the pot has steamed awhile, scrub it
with a green, scrubby pad and pout out
the water. Wipe it dry and coat it with
a light coating of oil while still hot.
Place a couple of paper towels inside
the oven so that they hand out a little.
Put the lid on top and then store the
oven until next time. The paper keeps
the lid slightly ajar for air movement
and collects moisture to keep the oven
dry.
Never – Ever allow cast iron to sit in
water or allow water to set in it. The
pot will rust! Never use soap on cast
iron. It will get into the metal pores
and taint your food.
Never place an empty cast iron oven
over a hot fire. It will crack or warp.
Never be in a hurry to heat cast iron.
It could burn the food or damage the
oven. Never put cold liquid into a hot
cast iron oven. It could crack! Have
fun and happy Dutch oven cooking.

Safety–A Goal of Mandatory Hunter Education
By BJ Lillibridge–Idaho Department of Fish and Game
I
t’s no accident that hunting in Idaho is a safe activity. That’s because
today’s hunters are better educated
than hunters in the past. They’re going
into the field knowing how to hunt safely and responsibly.
Idaho’s hunter education program–
coupled with the voluntary use of hunter
orange clothing–has dramatically helped
to reduce the number of hunting-related
firearms accidents in the field. However,
Idaho’s hunter education programs are
more than just about gun safety. They
also stress the importance of responsible, ethical conduct in the field.
Studies from several states have shown
that graduates from approved courses
are not only more successful and show
higher knowledge than non–-graduates,
but they have a greater awareness of
ethics and safety.
Hunters can fulfill Idaho’s course requirements several different ways.
Traditional classroom courses are
taught by trained, volunteer instructors
who follow statewide standards. Courses involve lectures and demonstrations,
homework, field experiences, firing exercises and a written exam. The average
course length is 16 hours.
Idaho also offers two independent
study options for hunter education —
the online course or workbook option.
Both versions are designed for self–motivated students with good reading
and comprehension skills who have
some firearms and hunting knowledge
or experience. These options are not
recommended for students under 14
years of age, with failure rates high in
the younger students. Younger hunters may be better served by attending a
traditional classroom course where they
receive personal instruction from certified instructors.
Before buying a hunting license, anyone born on or after January 1, 1975,
must attend and pass a course, or show
proof they have held a hunting license
from another state.
Interest in archery hunting has increased dramatically, especially in the
past decade or so. Because of important
differences between hunting with a firearm and hunting with a bow and arrow,
anyone planning to buy an archery permit in Idaho must also complete an approved bowhunter education course or
show evidence that they were previously
licensed to hunt with archery equipment
in another state.
As with basic hunter education, Idaho’s
bowhunter course also emphasizes safety and responsibility. Students can meet
the licensing requirement by completing
either a traditional classroom course or
the new online course with a half–-day
field day.
During a classroom bowhunter course,
instructors and students discuss safety
and ethical situations unique to bowhunting and also learn how archery
techniques can differ from those used
with firearms. Other topics in the 12hour course include archery equipment,
game anatomy, shot placement, treestand safety, game recovery and more.
Students are also required to pass a written exam and attend a field exercise usually conducted on a Saturday.

Idaho’s new online bowhunter education course offers a convenient way for
older students with time constraints and
busy schedules to complete the course.
Simply go to the department’s website
at http://fishandgame.idaho.gov and
look for the EDUCATION tab to find
the direct link to the online course.
After working at their own pace
through eight chapters, students must
pass the online exam, which costs
$20. Students who pass will be able
to print a certificate of course completion needed to register for the required field day. The field day usually
lasts a half day and includes a review
of course topics and specific Idaho
hunting information. All students
must pass an Idaho specific exam and
demonstrate the knowledge, skills and
physical ability to accurately shoot a
bow at the field day. Cost for materials is $8.
A bowhunter course field day will be
Saturday, April 1, at the Fish and Game
office at 3316 16th Street in Lewiston.
Students must register in advance by
calling Fish and Game at 208-799-5010
to attend. Because of space constraints
and registration materials, students who
do not register in advance will not be accepted into the field day.
For more information on Idaho’s
hunter education program, contact your
nearest Fish and Game office or visit the
department’s website at http://fishandgame.idaho.gov.
BJ Lillibridge is the hunter education coordinator for
the Clearwater Region who oversees the dedicated
volunteer instructors who certify more than 1,200 new
hunters annually.

RV Spring Preparation Checklist
By: Mark J. Polk
Y
our RV has been sitting idle
over the winter. Now the early
signs of spring are here and
it’s time to take it out of storage and
prepare the coach and chassis for this
years camping season. If you’re like
me, you want to have some type of logical sequence to follow rather then haphazardly checking the unit out. I made a
simple checklist to use so that nothing is
overlooked. I prefer to do the majority
of spring preparation myself. If you’re
more comfortable having someone else
do it you can schedule an appointment
with a reputable RV service center to
have it done.
* Depending on how your unit was
winterized it will need to be de-winterized. If you used non-toxic RV antifreeze you need to run fresh water
through the entire system until all traces of antifreeze are gone. To remove it
from the 12-volt water pump add water
to the fresh water-holding tank, turn
the pump on and open all water faucets. When the antifreeze is out of the
system turn the pump off and take the
water heater out of the by-pass mode (if
applicable). Re-install any water filter
cartridges you removed for storage.
* At this point I like to sanitize the water system. Make sure all of the drains
are closed and drain plugs are installed.
Take a quarter cup of household bleach
for every fifteen gallons of water your
fresh water tank holds. Mix the bleach
with water into a one-gallon container
and pour it into the fresh water holding
tank. Fill the fresh water holding tank
completely full of water. Turn the water
pump on and open all faucets, run water until you smell the bleach. Close the
faucets and let it sit for at least twelve
hours. Drain all of the water and refill the tank with fresh water. Turn the
pump on and open all faucets until you
no longer smell bleach. It may be necessary to repeat this process to eliminate
all signs of the bleach.
* With the water system under pressure inspect for water leaks. Check the
operation of the toilet.
* Wash the unit thoroughly. This is a
good time to inspect the roof and body
seams, and window sealants for cracking that would allow water to get in.
Consult a dealer for sealants compatible
with these materials.
* Inspect the operation of the awning
and clean the awning fabric as required.
* Inspect the tires for signs of dry rot.
Inflate all tires to the recommended
COLD tire pressure.
* Lubricate all hinges and locks with
spray lubricant.
* Remove any tape or protective covering you may have put over LP gas vents
to keep insects and rodents out. Check
Western Edition�
any mousetraps you may have put out.
Open all doors and compartments and
check for rodent intrusion and water
damage.
* Inspect and clean the interior.
* Plug in any appliances that you unplugged for storage and replace any dry
cell batteries you may have removed.
This is a good time to put new batteries
in items like smoke alarms.
* Test the operation of the carbon
monoxide alarm, LP gas leak detector
and smoke alarm.
* Check the fire extinguisher. Be sure
it is fully charged.
* Reset any breakers you may have
turned off. If you removed any fuses for
storage re-install them.
* Clean or replace air conditioner filters if it wasn’t done prior to storage
and remove any covers that were put
over air conditioners.
* Open vents and windows and air the
unit out.
* If you removed the coach and chassis batteries for storage install them.
Whether they were removed or not
check the electrolyte levels, clean the
terminals and clamps, and check the
charge level in all batteries. Recharge
batteries as necessary.
* Check the operation of the electric steps if applicable. Lubricate step
mechanism.
* Test the operation of the hydraulic
jacks if applicable. Check hydraulic
fluid level.
* Test the operation of the back up
camera and monitor if applicable.
* If you didn’t change the oil and filters in the generator prior to storage this
is a good time to do it. Inspect the generator exhaust system for damage prior
to starting. Start and run the generator
for two hours with at least a half rated
load on it. Consult the generators owner
manual for load ratings.
* Turn the generator off and plug the
unit into shore power. Turn the refrigerator on in the electric mode. Allow
sufficient time to cool and check for
proper operation.
* Check all 12-volt interior lights and
accessories.
* Test the monitor panel for proper
operation.
* Check the operation of slide outs if
applicable.
* Check the remaining 120-volt appliances for proper operation.
* Test the Ground Fault Interrupter
(GFI) for proper operation.
* Turn the refrigerator off, leave the
doors open and allow sufficient time for
it to get to room temperature so it can be
checked in the gas mode.
* Before I use the LP gas system I have
a leak test and gas operating pressure
test preformed. A qualified technician
with the proper equipment should do
these tests.
* After this is accomplished turn the
LP gas valve on and check the operation of all LP gas appliances. Be sure
the water heater is full of water before
testing the water heater. If a gas appliance is not operating properly have it
inspected by a qualified technician. Insects are attracted to the odorant added
to LP gas and build nests that can affect
the appliance from operating properly.
* If your unit was in long-term storage and you didn’t change the engine
oil and filter prior to storage this would

causes us to question whether we are
in Idaho or Scotland. Around 1900,
there were several sightings of strange
creatures in Bear Lake (on the Idaho/

could move faster than running horses,
and were witnessed by several different people. To this day, there are still
those who refuse to night fish on the
lake. For more information, contact

found in the United States, nearly 20
carats, was discovered near McCall,
Idaho.
In 1953, the engineering prototype of
the first nuclear submarine, the Nautilus, was built and tested in the Idaho
desert on the Snake River Plain near
Arco.
Idaho’s Salmon River, known as the
“River of No Return” because of its
difficult passage, is the nation’s longest free-flowing river that heads and
flows within a single state.
Did you know that Idaho has a seaport? The Port of Lewiston allows the
exportation of millions of bushels of
grain down the Snake and Columbia
Rivers for overseas shipment.
After the great Wallace fire of 1910,
the Pulaski, a mattock-axe tool used in
fire fighting, was invented in Idaho.
When Bernard DeVoto, author of the
1948 Pulitzer Prize winning history
Across the Wide Missouri, died in
1955, the U.S. Forest Service saw to
DeVoto’s wish that his ashes be scattered over Idaho’s Bitterroot Wilderness.
The Statehouse in Boise and dozens of
other buildings in the city are geothermally heated from underground hot
springs. In fact, Idaho is well sprinkled
with public and private hot springs.

Windmill Inns’ Top-Notch Services, Unique Amenities
Generate Rave Reviews from Guests
Y
ou know you’re doing something right when guests say
their only disappointment is
not finding your hotels everywhere they
travel.
The Scottsdale-based group of six hotels—three in Roseburg, Ashland, and
Medford, Ore., and three in Surprise/
Sun City, Chandler, and Tucson, Ariz.—
Is earning rave reviews from guests
who have experienced Windmill Inns &
Suites’ spotless guestrooms and public
areas, top-notch service and highly affordable rates. Guest satisfaction is so
high that many patrons take the time to
not only fill out comment cards, but to
write glowingly of their experience.
“Our hallmark has always been great
rates; sincere, friendly service; and
roomy, clean accommodations,” said
Windmill Inns & Suites President and
C.E.O John Cauvin, a 30-year hotel veteran who in 1984 purchased the thenstruggling Windmill Inns in Medford
and Roseburg and within a year turned
them into highly successful, profitable
properties—and has since built four
more.
“It’s incredibly satisfying to have people tell us personally, in the lobby or at
the front desk, that they’ve enjoyed their
stay,” Cauvin said. “But when they take
the time to write to us about how much
they enjoyed the experience... well,
that’s very special and meaningful to
us. It tells us that all the hard work we
put into delivering great service, clean
accommodations and desired amenities—all at affordable rates—is being
rewarded.”
At Windmill Inns, those amenities include free Continental breakfast, free
local calls (and free access to long-distance calls), free daily newspapers for
each guest, and free parking. Cauvin
points out that some of these amenities
are also offered at other hotels, so he’s
implemented an amenity program that
goes above and beyond the typical hotel
offerings.
Western Edition�
For example, all six Windmill Inns &
Suites allow pets to stay—for free; all
make bicycles available for free; all
make available free lending libraries
and free games for children; and all
offer high-speed Internet access—for
free—as well as access to free help-desk
assistance, should the need arise, via
a toll-free phone number. And there’s
even a bonus included in the free Continental breakfast—guests can even make
their own waffles!
“We’ve always tried to do things
that set us apart from our competitors
and provide more satisfaction for our
guests,” Cauvin said. “That’s been our
philosophy for more than 20 years, and
we’ve instilled it in our staff culture and
emphasized it in our ongoing staff-training programs. We believe in it thoroughly, and that is why we’re proud to offer
guests our unique, 110 percent guarantee of satisfaction.”

An American Stonehenge
in Maryhill, WA
O
n a lonely bluff overlooking the Columbia River
and the town of Maryhill,
Washington, is a full-size replica
Stonehenge. An almost identical
copy of the more famous English
Stonehenge, it was built by Sam
Hill, a road builder, as a memorial
to those who died in World War I.
Dedicated in 1918, the memorial
wasn’t completed until 1930. Hill
passed away soon after he finally
saw his masterpiece completed. Hr
was buried at the base of the bluff;
but, because he wished to be left
alone, there is no easy path to his
resting place.
The project began when Hill was
mistakenly informed that the original Stonehenge had been used as a
sacrificial site. He thus constructed
his replica as a reminder that “humanity is still being sacrificed to the
god of war.
The Maryhill Stonehenge, courtesy
Valkyrie Riders
The dedication plaque on this
American Stonehenge reads:
“In memory of the soldiers of
Klickitat County who gave their
lives in defense of their country.
This monument is erected in the
hope that others inspired by the example of their valor and their hero-
ism may share in that love of liberty
and burn with that fire of patriotism
which death can alone quench.”
Sam Hill’s Mansion, as well as
the American Stonehenge, are now
part of the Maryhill Museum of Art,
which also includes monuments to
the soldiers of Klickitat County who
died in World War II, Korea, and
Viet Nam.
This concrete landmark can clearly
be seen by all who enter Klickitat
County on U.S. Highway 97.
There is no admission fee to visit
the memorial; however, donations to
its maintenance fund are always appreciated.

CAPE
DISAPPOINTMENT
In 1788, searching for the Columbia River, John Meares an English
Captain named Cape Disappointment
for his failure in finding the passage
over the river. In 1792, Robert Gray
an American Captain, successfully
crossed the river bar and named the
river “Columbia” after his ship. Only
a few years later, in 1805, the Lewis
and Clark Expedition arrived at Cape
Disappointment.
The Cape Disappointment Lighthouse at the entrance to the Columbia
River was constructed in 1856 to warn
mariners of the treacherous river bar
known by then as “the graveyard of
the Pacific.” This is the oldest functioning lighthouse on the West Coast.
In the late 1800’s, third assistant keeper George Esterbrook was cleaning the
tower light on a stormy night when he
got locked out on the balcony and had
to scale the copper-lightening rod to
get back in. When he got back in on
the second balcony, he was exhausted,
but soon went back to work. Weeks
later he quit the service, and went on
to study medicine and become a physician.
In 1862 Cape Disappointment was
armed with smoothbore cannons to
protect the mouth of the Columbia
River during the Civil War. Blasts
from the big guns used to shake the
lighthouse and occasionally broke
windows. The installation was expanded to become Fort Canby in
1875. The fort was named after General Edward Canby, who was killed
in the Modoc Indian War. During
World War II, Japanese submarines
surfaced off Fort Stevens on the
South side of the river and lobbed in
several shells at Fort Canby. The fort
is now a Washington State Park, a
popular picnic and camping ground;
still on display are the gun batteries.
The park offers 27 miles of ocean
beach, an interpretive center and hiking trails. The park has old-growth
forest, lakes, freshwater and saltwater marshes, as well as streams and
tidelands along the ocean. Visitors
enjoy beachcombing and exploring
the area’s rich natural and cultural
history. The nearby coastal towns
of Ilwaco and Long Beach feature
special events and festivals spring
through fall. Lewis and Clark interpretive Center, perched on a 200 foot
high cliff, tells the story of Lewis
and Clark and their journey from St.
Louis to the Pacific Ocean.
Beautiful scenery, lush fairways. “A diamond in
the rough.” One of Washington State’s hidden
gems according to AAA. A regulation-length
nine-3168 yards, 6271 yards over two nines.
Open April through October. Public Welcome.

Mount Rainier National Park
E
stablished in 1899. 235,625 acres (97% is designated Wilderness). Includes Mount Rainier
(14,410’), an active volcano encased in over 35
square miles of snow and ice. The park contains outstanding examples of old growth forests and subalpine meadows.
Designated a National Historic Landmark District in
1997 as a showcase for the “NPS Rustic” style architecture of the 1920s and 1930s.
Whether hiking on its flanks, climbing its summit, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing on its slopes, camping
along its glacier-fed rivers, photographing wildflower
displays in subalpine meadows, or just admiring the view,
nearly two million people come to enjoy the grandeur and
beauty of Mount Rainier each year.
Mount Rainier National Park encompasses 235,625 acres
on the west-side of the Cascade Range, and is located
about 100 kilometers (50 miles) southeast of the SeattleTacoma metropolitan area. Mount Rainier National Park
is approximately 97 percent wilderness and 3 percent National Historic Landmark District and receives approximately 2 million visitors per year.
At 14,410 feet, Mount Rainier is the most prominent
peak in the Cascade Range. It dominates the landscape of
a large part of western Washington State. The mountain
stands nearly three miles higher than the lowlands to the
west and one and one-half miles higher than the adjacent
mountains. It is an active volcano that last erupted approximately 150 years ago.
The park is part of a complex ecosystem. Vegetation is
diverse, reflecting the varied climatic and environmental
conditions encountered across the park’s 12,800-feet elevation gradient. Approximately 58 percent of the park
is forested, 23 percent is subalpine parkland, and the remainder is alpine, half of which is vegetated and the other half consists of permanent snow and ice. Forest ages
range from less than 100 years old on burned areas and
moraines left by receding glaciers to old-growth stands
1,000 or more years. Some alpine heather communities
have persisted in the park for up to 10,000 years.
Species known or thought to occur in the park include
more than 800 vascular plants, 159 birds, 63 mammals,
16 amphibians, 5 reptiles, and 18 native fishes. The park
contains 26 named glaciers across 9 major watersheds,
with 382 lakes and 470 rivers and streams and over 3,000
acres of other wetland types. Of these vertebrates, there
are 4 federally listed threatened or endangered species
known to occur in the park, including 3 birds and 1 fish.
Four other species historically occurred in the park, but
their present status is unknown including: gray wolf, grizzly bear, Canada lynx, and Chinook salmon.
Activities – Mount Rainier National Park offers excellent opportunities for scenic drives, hiking, and mountain
climbing. Most roads are open from late May to early October--all provide stunning views and access to a variety
of hiking trails and other sites.
While many visitors attempt to “see the park in a day,”
you may wish to concentrate on one or two areas of the
park and explore them in detail. Keep in mind that parking is limited on sunny summer weekends and holidays.

from staying in the impersonal
hotel chains? Why not consider a Bed

more discerning about the standard of
accommodation that they demand, the
hospitality industry has had to respond.

would never experience in a large hotel.
You may be concerned about the idea
of staying in somebody’s home when all
you want is some peace and quiet. Experienced hosts will sense very quickly as
to whether you are a guest who wants to
be left alone or whether you are happy
to mix.
If you are new to B & B accommodation, it may be wise to stay either somewhere that you have been referred to or
one that is part of a group. Those B & B’s
that belong to particular lodging groups
are monitored regularly and have to undergo a rigorous evaluation process to

(NAPSI)-Barbecuing or grilling outdoors
this summer tops the list of fun ways for
families to eat dinner together, according
to a survey from the Propane Education &
Research Council. And almost two-thirds
of Americans say that a barbecue or cookout is their favorite way to entertain-or be
entertained-during the summer months.
But only one in three adults say they
know enough about basic safe grilling tips.
To help the 74 million “barbecue households” in the United States enjoy a safe
and healthy summer season, the propane
industry teamed up with best-selling author and grilling expert Steven Raichlen
to release its top-ten tips on grilling safely
with propane gas:
1. When the cylinder is refilled, have the
supplier check for dents, damage, rust or
leaks.
2. After filling or exchanging, take the
cylinder home immediately. Keep the
vehicle ventilated and the cylinder valve
closed and capped.

3. Always use or store cylinders outdoors
in an upright (vertical) position. Do not
use, store or transport cylinders near high
temperatures (this includes storing spare
cylinders near the grill).
4. Never leave the grill unattended. Always follow grill manufacturer’s instructions on lighting the grill and make sure
the grill top is open when attempting to
light the grill.
5. Before connecting or lighting a propane gas grill, use a leak-detection solution
to check connections for tightness. Do not
use matches or lighters to check for leaks.
6. If you suspect a gas leak, and are able
to safely turn off the gas supply valve, do
so immediately and call the fire department.
7. Do not allow children to tamper or play
with the cylinder or grill.
8. Do not smoke while handling a propane cylinder.
9. Never pour an accelerant such as lighter fluid or gasoline on the grill.

should be turned off and cylinder valve

“Interest in grilling is skyrocketing,” said
Raichlen, author of The Barbecue Bible
and the just-released Raichlen on Ribs.
“Given the large numbers of grillers in this
country, it is imperative that safe grilling
tips are made available and, more importantly, followed.”

TIPS ON TRIPS
(NAPSI)-Traveling today isn’t as
easy as it used to be. You have to
juggle luggage, boarding passes and
identification cards and are subjected
to numerous security measures. This
means you have an increased risk of
theft, not only while in transit, but
also after reaching your vacation
destination.
Using credit cards instead of cash
while traveling is not only safer, but
can also be more valuable. In some
cases, especially when traveling internationally, credit cards may assist in securing better exchange rates
than other methods of obtaining for-
eign currency. Credit card companies
can also refund disputed charges and
may offer extra guarantees or warranties.
Although Your Credit Card Companies customers are not held responsible for unauthorized purchases, these
common-sense tips from the organization will help ensure card users
don’t find themselves victims of stolen cards or other personal information that can lead to identity theft:
• Plan Ahead. If you’re going to be
out of town for longer than one billing cycle, remember that many issuers allow you to schedule a credit
card payment online or by phone.
Scheduling payments before you
travel will help you avoid late fees
and possible negative information on
your credit report.
• Priority Mail. Make arrangements
for your mail with the post office before departing. Mail piling up in your
mailbox could end up in the wrong
hands.
• Leave a Paper Trail. Save receipts
and keep track of the places you
used your card. Make sure receipts
are stored in a safe place so they can
be checked against your credit card

Tips On Trips
Park. To the south are the Kaibab Plateau and the Grand Canyon, and to the east, the newly designated Grand StaircaseEscalante National Monument. Coral Pink Sand Dunes State
Park is in the center of it all.
Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park gets its name from the
beautiful salmon-colored sand, which eroded from Navajo
sandstone. Winds carrying the pinkish sand rise from the hot
lower elevations of the Arizona Strip as they pass through
Moccasin Gap, which is located near the Arizona-Utah boundary. As the winds slow, the sand is deposited here, creating
acres of shifting dunes.
This beautiful setting has graced the pages of numerous calendars and has also been the scene of photographic shoots and
movies. The park plays host to a variety of uses. While the
majority of visitors who come to the dunes are daily sightseers and photographers, the park is also open to off-highway
vehicle use.
Sand dunes are famous for their distinct ecosystems and Coral
Pink is not different. The dunes are home to the Coral Pink
Sand Dunes tiger beetle, which is found nowhere else in the
world. Recently, in lieu of having the beetle listed as an endangered species, Utah State Parks and Recreation completed a
conservation agreement limiting off-highway vehicle access in
some areas of the park to while protect the beetle population.
Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park is a wonderful respite for
those touring the Grand Circle or heading to Southern Utah for
a vacation. And while the park is central to many other recreation areas, the park itself is an incredible destination.
Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park is located off Highway 89
between Mt. Carmel Junction and the town of Kanab. Last
year the park hosted 140,000 visitors and with only 30 campsites, reservations are highly recommended. For camping reservations, please call 800-322-3770 or simply 322-3770 from
within the Salt Lake calling area.
For more information contact Coral Pink Sand Dunes State
Park at P.O. Box 95 in Kanab, UT 84741-0095, or call (435)
648-2800. For information about Utah’s 42 state parks visit

• Lighten Up. Carry only the personal information absolutely necessary for vacation, such as a passport
or driver’s license. The less personal
information you have, the better off
you will be if your purse or wallet
has been stolen. When traveling by
air, always keep copies of these im-
portant documents in a separate part
of your luggage, such as a carry-on
bag.
• Hold On. Keep cards on your person. Most travel stores carry small
bags that you can keep cards, cash,
and other items you will need to access while out and about.

Eliminating The “Are We There Yet?” Factor
(NAPSI)-According to the Travel Industry
Association of America (TIA), Americans
will be traveling in record numbers this
year-with a projected 2.3 percent increase
in leisure travel.
TIA estimates that Americans will account for more than 550 million trips this
year. Three out of four Americans plan to
visit friends and relatives, two thirds will be
at a beach and/or visiting small towns and
rural areas. Over a third will be traveling
with children.
Whether you’re traveling by plane, train
or automobile, there are a number of ways
to keep youngsters-and adults-from asking
“Are we there yet?” Pocket-sized, batteryoperated handheld games offer a variety of
entertainment options-from classic arcade
games to high-stakes casino action-but they
also can keep players occupied for hours.
A leading manufacturer of handheld
games, Radica, has a number of titles to
choose from, for kids age 8 and up-so getting there truly can be half the fun. Batteries are even included.

anything...then answer a series of 20 questions.Ê20Q’s personality shines, offering
taunting commentary as you play, such
as “Does your mom know you think like
that?” or “I’m thinking you can do better!”
The mystical blue sphere will ask a range
of silly and bizarre questions. If 20Q reads
your mind within 20 questions, it wins. If
not, you win.
• World Poker Tour: No Limit Texas
Hold ‘Em: The number-one rated show
on the Travel Channel is now available in
a handheld! This big-screen tournamentstyle game features fast-paced, competitive
play with up to five virtual opponents. Each
of the five players has a distinctive playing
style and can be knocked from the tournament as other player’s join the table.
• Big Screen Slot: A lively, realistic fivereel nine-line betting handheld slot game.
Four game modes-Original Slot, Double
Spin, Change Up and Skill Stop-keep the
action moving. The Vegas-style action also
includes an animated bonus round.
• Bunco Night: The classic social game of
dice, luck and prizes, is now available in
a handheld. It’s a single player game with
all the attributes of the classic social multiplayer game. Each roll of the dice can bring
big points.
No matter whether you’re heading to a
theme park, touring museums or visiting relatives, handheld games can be a terrific way
to pass the time between here and there.
Handheld games can be a great way to
pass the time during family excursions.
