WY registered agent

Wyoming. $11 a year. One sky.

One state. One page. Where we stand, first, because it is short. Then the yearly charge, the statute and the rest, in the state's words. Ours are few.

Where we stand

Under the sky. Somewhere.

The sky, over some ground

Mostly sky. Some ground under it. These are the places where the ground is worth mentioning, photographed by people who looked down long enough.

A full moon setting over the bare hills of the Lamar Valley at dawn.

A moon going down over a valley with nobody in it. The valley is the point. The moon is a bonus.

Adobe Town

Badlands carved by wind under a sky twice their size. No town. The name is aspirational, like ours.

Yellowstone Lake

Flat water under a bank of cloud at Storm Point. The lake is the largest thing in the park after the sky. The sky wins.
