planning to move to AZ

No twisters/tornadoes were I live at. Applacian hill country. The tops of the mountains and steep deep valleys kill the tornadoes before they can start-they need level ground.

We do have "Deliverance" type of people where I live though. Just don't step on their land or you might get shot. West Virginia is right across the Ohio river of course. My wife is a horse veterinarian and some of the people that live back in those "hollers" are just plain scary. I can take you to places that are like out of a twilight zone episode. Unbelievable that people still live that way (no electricity/plumbing/no bridges-drive through creeks to get to their houses etc). I was out on Fish Creek W.Va last month checking out for old cars and trust me the confederate rebel flags are still waiving...I saw 3 or 4

I hear ya Whitetop. I used to live in Huntsville Alabama. We would take frequent trips to Tennesee and Kentucky to visit...Even in 1969 as a kid...I couldn't believe that there were whole neigborhoods that didn't have plumbing, etc. They had outhouses and crap everywhere. If I remember right, these were also in the hills.

Well, another day looking...did the north of scottsdale...did not even get into scottsdale as the prices did not meet the criteria..meaning under a mil!!!! Looked at cave creek and desert hills area and have found a few fairly new places....3600 sq ft house, 4 br, mother in law seperate building and very large double RV garage for 950 and no pool. man i loved that garage.....seems these garage structures are allowed and have to be designed consistent with the house look, whick is fine for me...i very big on conformance for overall appearance...was on a busy rd though!! Also found a new build, with plenty of land where i can build the structure and pool. Im hearing 50 dollars a sq ft for garage space. Today we are on our own, and maybe i adjust the criteria....go with a track home instead of a custom home and buy a warehouse?? will look into some commercial property.

bruce , ill give u a call today...man this is tough going.
