Since no one else is replying anymore, how was it growing up in WY? I have these dreams of living there (or Alaska) but not yet. I didn’t let my son grow up to be a cowboy. He became a Marine. :) I do love horses though. Riding the train to NYC there used to be horses along the way and I remember flipping out at seeing them. sigh.
I actually live in Utah now but parents live in Wyoming and I go there often. Joining the Navy at 18 sure was a culture shock, living in Florida and Virginia was like living on another planet. Wyoming is a great place but not for everybody, hard winters for sure.
