So it seems like there are a lot of folks who are looking at moving these days. I know I've talked

to quite a few people who have either just bought a homestead or who are looking at moving out of

their state or their area in the near future and they're looking for good options. And one of the

people ask me this question and because I instantly get really excited and I want to say yes,

yes, yes, you should come here, you should move here. But I have to be honest with myself that

Wyoming is not for everyone. It can be a difficult place to live. And so I try to be objective,
