Signs like this are commonplace...

...when your wife gets pulled over by a town police officer for missing a stop sign and "mildly speeding" and he gives her a written warning while remembering and saying "hey you're that lady that moved from NY that I did the VIN check on last month, right?" He happens to be a really nice guy. He did the VIN check on my car too. I'm sorry but I'm really not used to the police being nice. This is really kind of cool.

. . . . when you ask to reserve a book when it returns to the library, the librarian calls you about a week later telling you it's in, and when you walk thru the door of the library the next day, all three librarians look up, smile, and say, "You must be Mr. Frank!"

Small town America. No anonymity whatsoever.

You have not washed your car in 6 months because it could rain any day now...

Indeed... and it takes a good hailstorm to scrub the mud off...

You know you are in Wyoming when you accidently leave your keys in your car, and the car is still there the next day.

When I first moved to Wyoming, I was working in an office when the boss came in and asked if he could borrow someone's car since his was in the shop. The lady next to me said, "You can borrow my truck. It is parked around the corner on 5th Street." The bos said, "Thank you" and headed out the door. I asked, "Don't you have to give him the key?" She said, "The key is in the truck."

Hardly anyone in these small towns locks their houses or cars, I found out.

... the name of the local hair salon is "Crosshairs" with the sign showing a scope reticle.

-when you can't find a good looking single girlfriend with no kids for the life of you
-when you see a guy at a truck stop with bad acne and missing teeth (lotsa meth-heads)
-when you get pulled over for doing 4mph over the speed limit yet cops do it all the time
-when you sling a black rifle over your shoulder and the ranger just asks how you're doing and smiles
-when you have to bike hard downhill because the wind is pushing you up
-Folks ask about your bike and you wrongly think they are asking about your bicycle. (ok this is pretty common everywhere, but worth noting)
-Every vehicle in the parking lot is a jacked up 4x4 truck (someone probably already mentioned this)
-you haven't bought windshield wipers in years

Excuse the crudeness, but,
When you are bicycling down a US highway in the middle of the day, in late May (yesterday), and rather than having to go way off the highway to find a bush you realize there's no traffic within earshot, no people within sight, and can take care of business right there and then.
