Wyoming Winter
Wyoming. Population roughly 580,000. That’s 6 people per square mile yet the 10th largest state in land area. The name “Wyoming” hails from the Lenape Indian word mecheweami-ing, which translates to “on the big plain.” Some might call it “God’s Country.” An introvert’s island.
The solitude. A milieu that beckons us to take a deep breath. A cathedral where we can practice the art of observation paired with the finest of aged wines…patience. A chance to cleanse the palate with just a taste of the harsh beauty of winter in the open country…to embrace and absorb the penetrating cold. A corner of our world to appreciate the land and the light along with the culture and the wildlife.

Sacagawea Memorial
Sacagawea's supposed gravesite in Forth Washakie, Wyoming.
In 1804, Lewis and Clark chose Sacajawea as their interpreter for their well known expedition. A Lemhi Shoshone, 19 year-old Sacajawea accompanied the Lewis and Clarke from North Dakota to the Pacific ocean over the course of two years.
Hidden away off any main road lies this memorial. History remains muddled in confusion...you can read up on it if interested but there is argument over if this is her actual grave or a site in Mobridge, South Dakota.
