SARATOGA, WY - - On our 320 mile drive from Cody to Saratoga we passed through a lot of wide open spaces. This overlook has a vista of a portion of the Wind River Indian Reservation with the Wind River Mountains to the left (out of the photo). This was after a winding drive through the Wind River Canyon alongside the Big Horn River. Which leads to an interesting fact: The estimated 2007 population of the 97,914 square miles in the state of Wyoming is 522,830. Volusia County, FL, where we live, has an estimated population of 517,000 in 1,103 square miles. So there it is...either people stepping on each others toes or having so much space that you could probably walk for days in some area without seeing another soul.
