Too bad my dad couldn't stifle his entrepreneurial spirit. We could have stayed there forever on our own little ranch. Alas, businesses need investment, so he needed to get something going. Organizing is basically his *thing* I doubt I'll ever again see Wyoming. I found some ancient stone ruins once, the kind that Western conquerors never despoiled. They were ancient and overgrown, but I saw them for what they were. I would give anything to live there, or at least be near enough to visit with my crowd at a pleasant cool midnight evening, when dusk has winked out its last goodbye and the summer is resplendant with fireflies. Too bad they're an east coast thing. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┘ --- #10 fediverse/3797 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────── @user-570 unless you meant canada.
