Will do if we ever get out of Tucson (car trouble). We are hoping to be moved down within 3 months provided all goes well.

Thanks for the update wandered why it never flew in the sixties. There is a border control station between Pearce and Sunsites Ranches. That monitor in and out vehicles.They are friendly and treat you with respect as you would. Sunsites/Pearce are very frienly helpful people. Car broke down and they made sure we were taken care of in all aspects. Will try to post photos later

There have been some very large parcel land sales there in the last 3-4 years probably for development. Visit the cochisecounty.com site and spend some time reading about the master plan and the recent changes. Parcel size somewhat determines your ability to build what you want. Point of use hot water is now a requirement, an indicator of how precious water is and will remain so when the boomers get done relocating. Last winter there were a lot of new houses being built on the small golf course there and they were quite nice, though pricey for what you got. In my opinion, an independent builder could give you much more for the same money. A trip through Middlemarch Pass over to Tombstone will probably convince you if you are cut out for the truly rural life. This ride is a step back in time, it reminds you that you are living apart from the rest of the world, and starkly displays the desolate nature of living in Pearce. On the other hand, a main road trip to Benson, Willcox, Sierra Vista or Green Valley will give you a chance to see the sense of community that is developing out there. Although we have plans to build in Pearce we will probably keep a condo or apartment in a more populated town to enjoy a nightlife, make a quick trip to a store or for those Doctor / Dentist visits. We also have a genuine concern for the long stretches of vacant road between Pearce and the busier areas. Good idea to habla espanol, keep emergency numbers on the cell phone and have Onstar as a backup.

I just came back from another wonderful trip to Cochise CO. This time I was able to visit my property and my neighbors. The town of Sunsites is also closer to my property than I previously thought it was. It is a very pleasent little town and so are the people that live there. Every where in that area we were greated by freindly people.
The majority of our trip was spent in Willcox. It is a little bigger town than Pearce/Sunsites and has most of the necessities needed for every day life. Willcox has a good variety of Hotels and during the summer months the price is much better. The weather there was about like it is here in the southern Idaho during the summer (90's), and the nights cooled down nicely. We ate some BBQ that was awesome at a little place that is made out of an old train car. We really enjoyed our stay in Willcox and met some real nice poeple there.
PS. My nieghbors are some of the best people I have ever met and hope to visit with them again in the near future.

here is a few pics:

DesertZone -

Thanks for the pics. I have to say that I don't recall seeing Saguaros at Sunsites - and I would have thought it was a bit too chilly in the winter there - of course we where there only briefly, so I guess we simply missed them. As I've told others on this board, it is a VERY NICE little community - neat, clean, prosperous-looking. It's a bit too remote for us personally, but the town itself is quite lovely and I suspect you'll be very happy there.

We're likely to be in the area in late September and will likely do the 191/181/186 "loop" once again (a very nice drive). I expect the grasslands will be quite a bit greener than they were last time we were there (January of 2007).

Once again, thanks for the pics.
Did you visit Stout's Cider Mill (Welcome to Stout's Cider Mill) in Wilcox? Mountainous apple pies there - and cider unlike any I've ever tasted - tastes literally like biting into a fresh apple.

Hi Ken,

Bring back lots of pics to share.
