    I just watched the first episode last night and enjoyed not only the story line but the gorgeous Montana scenery. I will continue the series tonight. Montana is the one state that I have never been to.

    Wife and I have been to both, the Upper and Lower areas, of Yellowstone. Amazing scenery and lots of wildlife. One of the major things we miss about Colorado...…..the mountains and wildlife there.

    I've been in both Bozeman and Billings.

    @Beth Gallagher
    I always look at the location's population per square mile in getting a "feel" for hardly any people. Our place in Missouri was situated in a county having 21 persons per sq. mi., very low. Our current county, Mohave, in AZ has
    even less, only 15!

    Contrast those numbers with the very largest county in the U.S., San Bernardino, CA, having 100 persons per sq. mi.! Frank

    I live in the Houston metro area...:eek:

    Houston's population density is estimated to be 3,662 people per square mile (1,414 per square kilometer.) Houston is also the economic center of Houston-The Woodlands-Sugarland, which is the 5th largest metropolitan area in the United States with over 6 million people.

    You qualified your post with an appropriate (I figger you thought it so), and understand the great difference between urban and rural living. I wrote in reference to your "kind of place" comment, but know full we;ll the implications of big city life, having resided outside Chicago 30 years, 20 in Phoenix, 5 in Las Vegas......

    And I also know the difference between urban and rural; I grew up on a tobacco farm in rural south GA.

    The word "density" is just one of the reasons we are moving back to Colorado. Jacksonville, FL is very high in density. Thing is, "land mass" size, Jacksonville, FL has the most of any city in the U.S.

    There is almost 10 times the amount of people in Jacksonville, FL proper than there is where we are moving to. About 931,000 in the in Jacksonville, whereas there is a little more than 78,000 in Loveland, CO. And, when we visited there last July, some of the folks there think their city is crowded. I told them, "nothing compared to where we currently live".

    The first episode of the new season of Yellowstone starts tonight here in the Oklahoma City area
    on the Paramount Channel. I hope the daughter straightens up this season and becomes a vital
    part of the family operation. Last season she was nothing but a wild hare.

    So far as I can determine the storyline is, "the Dutton family, led by John Dutton,
    who controls the largest contiguous ranch in the United States, under constant
    attack by those it borders—land developers, an Indian reservation, and America's
    first National Park. a battle to keep the ranch intact.

    I live in San Bernardino County, the largest County in the United States.

    It may be the largest County, but it also presents a cheap, boring County Fair every year.

    The Los Angeles County Fair is way, way superior!

    We always attend the Fair, but my favorite interest is the Sheep and Goats, and the Antique Tractor exhibits.

    They present a Rock band every year, but we stay away from that noise by attending during the day.

    That's it...
