I found an illegal firework in my front yard this morning.  (Fire ban in most of CO and that includes fireworks....)

Thankfully my pets dont seem to care about thunder storms or fireworks. 

Illegal schmelegal, fireworks are fun!

Wyoming is cold in the winter. It's pretty much windy year round across the entire state. The largest towns, Cheyenne and Casper, don't really offer much in regards to culture and the remaining towns are just small town culture. A large majority of the population is very conservative in politics, and the remaining sliver is divided up btwn Libertarians and Democrats. There's really only one university of any size or reputation, UW in Laramie, so it's not really known as an academic or research hotbed. Lots of ranchers and faux-ranchers. It's 92% white and the largest minority are American Indians who you won't see much of unless you wander onto reservations. You can probably retire there for cheap unless you fancy a big ranch.

 

All of the above pertains to all of Wyoming except Jackson Hole which is a whole different animal.

 

Bears repeating, it's windy all the time.

All of that. I've been telling him all of that. I think he is of the opinion that if he looks off his front porch at night, and sees no lights, he's good. Hermit.

Or injure themselves. Or other people. There are some dumb stunts with fireworks making the rounds.

Those things don't happen in Pennsylvania, that's why fireworks are legal there. And NJ, too. 

And upstate NY...
