When Kathy Lichtendahl and her husband, Ken, moved to a remote part of Wyoming in the early 1990's, the most common question from friends and family was "What do you DO all day?" With approximately 80% of the U.S. population residing in or near a city, many citizens find it hard to imagine a life spent in a wild area of the country's least populated state. Wyoming contains some of the largest uninhabited landscapes of the lower 48 and provides unique access to wildlife and terrain that many Americans never get to experience. Surrounded by the natural world, Kathy explores our human connection to the environment and discusses why that bond is even more important in a fast-changing world.
