There is tons to do there and in the surrounding area if someone would just do some investing and improvements. Can’t beat Arizona sunrise or sunset!

There is so much history here and so many cool things to see and do near by. At least for now, the necessities are covered…Mexican restaurant, pastries, beautiful skies and a Safeway. And having friends close by seals the deal! We enjoyed spending time with you and Mike as well…hoping for lots more of those opportunities in the future!

Loved your sunset photos and loved meeting up with guys during your trip! That photo of Jack focusing on the ball is great. I've tried several of the local wines and I've yet to taste an "award winning" one........Safe travels!

I’m liking the idea it is so close to home ad a long weekend would be great. I feel so bad for these small towns. Willcox has definitely seen better days, but maybe there is hope for a revival of sorts. There really is a lot of history here.

Yes, you definitely need to return in better conditions so you can do some hiking. Thanks for sharing the town. You were very kind to it. I do love what they did with the old elm. So clever.

But yet there are lots of things to do here…Joe and I barely scratched the surface. Joe says the Rex Allen movies he watched some 70 years ago were all black and white. I do remember Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, but that’s about it for me. Rex Allen is said to be the last of the singing cowboys.

We've not been to Wilcox, but what a great place to visit. I do not recall Rex Allen but have seen a couple of the movies. I like the qualifications for the Cowboy Hall of Fame, don't think I'd make it. Great sunsets and always fun to see what the pups are up to.Jeff Piercehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254493317843044109noreply@blogger.com
