23 Questions With...Mindi






In your words explain a little about yourself, who are you?
            I am a traveler, an appreciator of art, type A but slowing down, animal lover, loyal friend & sister, too serious, slightly pessimistic, lover of nature and the outdoors, sometimes see a little too black and white, can sell anything I believe in, only once at a loss for words, lived in nine western states but chose Sublette County to buy my first property in.  I love the small town atmosphere, availability of all types of recreation, genuine people, wildlife (especially moose and pronghorn), and views of the mountains. A loyal dog, two horses (mares – what does that say about me?) and a resident comedian/bedwarmer, what more could a girl want?
