A good friend built his home overlooking Skull Valley with his bare hands. Took about a year, and he slept on the ground the whole time because they wouldn't let him park a mobile home. Oh, it was allowed for up to a year, but he went to the wrong church and always got the worst of it at city hall.
One day he called me to say that he was moving on. There was a new neighbor about 1/2 mile down the road, and he was feeling "fenced in." I think that a lot of GV residents are like my friend. They enjoy the peacefulness of the area, and consider the washed-out roads, the methheads, and lack of services as a small price to pay.
So, I'm happy for them that the Rhodes development has not materialized. Their taxes won't be skyrocketing and they won't have to feel like strangers in their own land. Sure, some realtors aren't going to get rich, but the prospective buyers can find hundreds of better places to live in the West.
The AOL stalker can continue with her juvenile games, but just who does she think she's fooling? There are but a handful of regular posters that visit this board, and I don't think that she's done a very good job of selling them a home in Pravada, if it ever gets started. It's time to move on.

Hey folks how are we today. Kudos to all brave men and women who wore our colors proudly here on domestic soil and abroad. The best of the best can be found in our armed services. A friend of mines grandfather is one of those stand up guys. WW2 vet and a proud construction worker that was part of the original team that helped build the Hoover Dam.
What an accomplishment and proud he was so I'm told. To be part of such an awesome and important structure here in the U.S. After his Hoover achievment he took all that construction and engineering experience and put it to good use. He got a veterans loan and started his own medium sized building & development company with a few army buddies, within a year he hired a bunch more workers and expanded. Kept himself and almost a hundred other hard workers employed for decades until retirement. He did both residential & commercial projects so I'm told and they are awesome developments. Sorry to ramble like a rambler but just wanted to share this with the crowd.
Happy V Day and catch everyone later

US Stocks Climb, Led By Materials, Energy; DJIA Up 90
By Donna Kardos
NEW YORK (MarketWatch)-- U.S. stocks opened higher Monday, led by the materials and energy sectors as commodities prices rose and the dollar fell, reflecting a move back into some of the riskier areas of the market that have lagged in recent weeks.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was recently up 91 points, or 0.9%, to 10112. It was led by General Electric, which climbed 3.2%. The conglomerate and Comcast Corp. have settled on how to value NBC Universal, clearing a key obstacle to giving Comcast control of GE's television and movie company, The Wall Street Journal said, citing people familiar with the matter. Caterpillar, Intel and Alcoa also climbed more than 2%.
Monday's gains come as the stock market attempts to recover from a weak and volatile past few weeks as investors began shying away from risk after they had flocked toward it for much of the rally since March.
"We now see a lot more people and traders more skeptical of the market, which is a plus," as it means there's plenty of money left to come in to the market and send it higher, said Steven Goldman, market strategist at Weeden & Co.
Goldman added that with some of the market's declines in recent weeks "having cleaned out the excesses," he now expects investors to be more selective in choosing which stocks to buy. "We're likely to see that the lower-quality stocks are no longer the leaders, as we're getting into a little more defensive market."
Still, Monday's action saw some of the areas that are considered riskier leading the gains. The Standard & Poor's 500 increased 1%, led by its materials and energy sectors as metals and oil futures climbed.
In addition, the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite rose 1.2%, and the Russell 2000 index of small-capitalization stocks jumped 1.4%. Both of those measures have lagged in recent weeks, as their components are widely considered riskier.
The dollar, which investors send higher when they are looking for safety, was lower against both the euro and the yen Monday. However, 10-year Treasury notes were 3/32 higher, to yield 3.491%.
Among stocks in focus Monday, RadioShack jumped 13.3% after it said it will carry Apple Inc.'s iPhone at a limited number of stores later this month, and stores nationwide will carry the phones beginning in 2010.
Wynn Resorts climbed 5.5% after unveiling a special dividend of $4 a share and saying it plans to pay a quarterly dividend starting next year.

Very well said G.O.
Simple
To the point
My Sentiment exactly
The mighty eagle soars effortlessly through the sky, Red, White and Blue, the colors adopted by our forefathers shine brilliantly in the background, picture perfect symbols of our origins and progress we have made over the years. I salute the flag and all armed forces personnel for their outstanding performance. A special thanks goes out to our working class, those blue colors who every single day manage to keep the engine of progress finely tuned and moving forward in the right direction. Let's all do everything we possibly can to provide employment opportunities for our growing community. Paychecks to provide for themselves and families, charities and community enrichment. A wage is an essential element to economic stability and ultimate prosperity, an essential for all individuals.
BTW Good to see you again G.O.
Have a fine evening.
Kate

For starters, Rhodes is still in Chapter 11. He is scheduled to emerge in January. He was allowed to keep his Pravada investment, but not much else. Also, he has a couple more permissions to get from the ACC... but I have read that those are time factors, not "will he get them or not" factors.
Also, JR will have to inventory his balance sheet, his personal life and ambitions, and the future of the market in NW AZ, and decide whether or not he can continue... I hope he does, but GV will continue to develop anyway. But it's going to be slow going for several years, IMO.

House Boating in Mohave is an incredible Adventure
Stunning scenery
Golden V * Pravada * Walnut Creek Ests * etc with it's milder Mohave temperatures is an excellent choice for those relocating * Views are spectacular in every direction * Also centrally located within a short distance to just about everything this great County has to offer. Golden V geographically situated right in the center of great ENTERTAINMENT venues such as Las Vegas * Kingman * Laughlin * Lake Havasu * and a more distant commute to Phoenix*
Found a great *web site* for those interested in a houseboat vacation
