s a meaningful way to pay tribute to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and paid the price for all of our freedoms, the Palm Springs Air Museum will hold its annual Flower Drop and Air Fair in time for Memorial Day. The commemoration recognizes the vital role of those who fought in World War II, in particular. This ceremony is noted as one of the most significant throughout southern California. The day’s events will include morning flight exhibitions featuring the P-51, P-63 and C-47. At 1 p.m., the B-25 Mitchell Bomber will drop 3,000 red and white carnations in remembrance of those who died while serving in our country’s armed forces. Guests are welcome to pick up a carnation to take home.

Following the Flower Drop, attendees will be able to view the Missing Man Formation with the fighter jets overhead. Other attractions will include musical entertainment, children’s activities and food vendors. A Beer Garden will be open for those 21 and older.

Visitors are encouraged to bring folding chairs and to carpool if possible, as the parking lots will fill quickly. Friendly pets on leashes are welcome.

The Palm Springs Air Museum Flower Drop and Air Fair is held on Monday, May 27. Flight exhibitions at 10 a.m. with flower drop at 1 p.m. The Palm Springs Air Museum is located at 745 North Gene Autry Trail in Palm Springs. For more information, call 760-778-6262 or visit palmspringsairmuseum.org.

DesertMobileHomeNews.com Of course, that’s not enough to ensure a satisfactory boarding experience for Riley. No one wants to come back from vacation to find their dog got sick or, in the case of an Indiana couple, was lost. Here are some tips:

Kennel vs. Pet Sitter Dear Paw’s Corner: How do I know if a dog-care facility or a dog sitter are legit? We’re planning a vacation this summer and can’t take “Riley,” our German Shepherd. -- Barbara L., New Jersey Dear Barbara: You’re doing the right thing by checking out more than one option for Riley’s care while you’re away. A dog kennel has its good points -– as well as specific things to watch for.

Likewise for a dog sitter, who will come to your home regularly to feed, walk and play with your dog.

In New Jersey, animal facilities including kennels must be licensed annually. They also must be inspected by the local health department to make sure they are sanitary and comply with building codes.

• Personally visit each facility and ask for a tour.

• Do research online: Read reviews, search for notices of violations, and look for any news articles about the facilities, good or bad.

• Ask around at the dog park: Find out where other owners boarded their pets. The regulations for inhome pet sitters are not as clear, and so you need to check out potential sitters closely. Word-ofmouth recommendations and positive online reviews are a good start, but don’t go by these alone.

• Meet the sitters personally to interview them, learn about their experience and see how they interact with Riley.

• Ask if they’re affiliated with any national or international pet sitter organizations.

• Find out if they are bonded and insured, this protects both you and the sitter should anything happen. (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc. ued its use of these weapons until the end of the war, managing to keep its activities secret.

• On June 3, 1937, the duke of Windsor -- formerly King Edward VIII -- marries Wallis Warfield Simpson, the American divorcee for whom he abdicated the British throne in 1936.

• On June 8, 1966, the rival National Football League (NFL) and American Football League (AFL) announce that they will merge.

The first Super Bowl between the two leagues took place at the end of the 1966 season.

It’s Time to Get Outside Winter has finally let go and summer is taking its first steps. But nearly all of us, no matter what kind of winter we experienced, are eager to get out and about.

Here are some ideas for activities to do outdoors: Community Garden: Do you have a community garden near where you live? These are often managed by local groups such as the senior center or the town.

Each person who signs up is given a small plot of dirt to plant flowers and vegetables. Sometimes fertilizers and tools are provided.

All you need to do is show up and plant something, keep the weeds under control and reap the harvest at the end. If you have a community garden but don’t think you can manage a whole plot, see if you can split it with a friend. If you end up with too many vege-

tables (think: cucumbers), donate extras to the food bank.

Plein Air Painting: Instead of painting in a studio or class, grab an easel and paints (and maybe a chair) and head for the outdoors.

Consider watercolor paints instead of oil or acrylic. They dry quickly, and you won’t have to struggle with getting a wet oil painting back home. With plein air painting, the whole world is your subject. If you’re not familiar with this technique, check for online videos and tutorials. Once you get started you might discover a whole community of plein air artists around you.

Outdoor Qi Gong or Tai Chi: These classes can get you out in the fresh air and help with fitness.

Remember that these two disciplines are good for core strength to help you avoid falls.

Investigate all the offerings through the local rec center. Water aerobics, museum field trips, photography meet-ups and golf lessons all are great ways to get outside. (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc.

fore eating it. What’s his secret?

Does he have strong genes? -- T.M.

Husband Refuses to Wash His Hands Dear Dr. Roach: My husband and I are both 74 and in general good health. He never washes his hands when he comes in from working as a public accountant. He doesn’t wash his hands when he sneezes, or after touching meat and poultry when he cooks. He smokes and is a functioning alcoholic. He says it’s not necessary to wash fruit before you eat it and tells me I don’t know what I am talking about. He has been on Lipitor for several years and eats steak almost every night. On the other hand, I wash my hands when I come in from work and before preparing meals, and have always washed fruit be-

Answer: Eating well and taking good care of yourself don’t guarantee a long, healthy life. The converse is true as well. I have heard so many stories about Aunt Martha (or Gertrude or Helen), who drank, smoked and lived on bacon until she was 105, but your lifestyle does give you a better chance at living longer and healthier, and of feeling better right now.

Smoking increases the risk of dying from any cause. A 74-year-old man who has smoked all his life has about the same risk of dying as an 82-year-old nonsmoker. One can do a similar risk analysis with diet. But some people, through a combination of good genes and good luck, manage to live long, healthy lives despite poor lifestyle choices. Even though some individuals will not have the expected outcome, smoking is still bad. So is eating steak every night. Washing (or at least rinsing) produce is a good idea.

VA, Medicare and Opioid Abuse Half of veterans who are enrolled in Department of Veterans Affairs health care also are signed up with Medicare Part D. What that means is they can get their prescriptions from either the VA or Medicare through a civilian doctor ... or too often from both. Until now there has been no way to tell if a veteran was collecting opioids from both sources.

A recent study looked at 200 patients who died and 800 others, categorizing them as VA only, Medicare only or both. Of these, 60 patients who died and 117 control patients had received opioid prescriptions from both sources.

They had a much higher chance of dying from drug overdose than those who received drugs from only the VA or Medicare.

Granted, these stats are from

2012 and 2013, but it does indicate a very likely pattern -- patients who are able to get painkillers from two sources just might use both.

Now the VA and Medicare have hooked up with a program to monitor drug prescriptions, including opioids. The VA will be able to keep an eye on drugs prescribed by health-care sources outside the VA and will know if anyone has been prescribed double the amount.

What the press release doesn’t say is just how the VA plans to monitor the drug prescriptions. Will it have access to a patient’s file at a civilian doctor?

Will it have access to the Medicare computer? Or the pharmacy?

Between the doctor, the pharmacy and Medicare, at what point will the VA know what’s being prescribed?

And if a drug is doubly prescribed for a veteran, what is the VA going to do about it?

The biggest question of all: Will this require new computer software at the VA? If so, it could take some time. (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc.
