Needed Boost During These Hard Times

Travel from front page
driving up from Colorado, with the impossibly
distant horizon and a sky-high storm front that
stretches from one end of the world to the other
behind you. Will the rolling, gray cumuli catch
your car, horse, buggy, wagon train, or foot
race? And when they do inevitably overtake
your journey, what mysterious meteorological
fates await?
We have friends who can only take their
French fries with gobs of ketchup or mayonnaise,
and other friends who can only chew
them plain with a dash of salt. Wyoming corresponds
to the plainer, simpler, saltier form
of sustenance, where you learn to live and
wander without the constant hustle and insistent
cacophony of demands from the needy,
hectic modern world. It feels like a place
you could literally live forever, lazily fishing
for trout in the Green River, snaking up the
endless depths of the crease-like Wind River
Canyon, or just sitting out on your horse or
front porch, watching the sunrise unfold for
your eyes—and your eyes alone.
Next up: Chasing Napoleon.
