WY registered agent
Wyoming, $34 a year, window one
The form for Wyoming, explained at the counter. The statute is the first line because it is the one the form cites. Then the yearly charge, the fee to come back and the rest, in the state's own words. Ours are the clerk's, and the clerk is brief.
Line one: what the state asks of an agent

Places on the county map behind the counter
There is a map on the wall behind the desk, and these are on it. The clerk has been to two of them and can point to the rest.
the Laramie Plain
Grass and hillocks along a high road, filed under scenery. The plain goes on for a county and a half. The desk covers one form.

the National Elk Refuge
Elk on the skyline in a line, like a queue that knows where it is going. Our queue does not, and it is shorter.

the Seedskadee refuge
A moose in the willows, processed by nobody, requiring no form. The refuge runs on this basis. So, unofficially, do we.

Swan Lake Flat
A meadow at sunset with nobody in it, which is how the desk looks at closing, and at opening, and in between.

the Teton Range
The range across the valley floor, the most photographed line on the map. It is not on any form we process. Neither is anything else.
