Between Muddy Gap and the Lander, Wyoming lies Sweetwater Station home of the Mad Dog and the Pilgrim Booksellers.
Population of Sweetwater Station: 5
Inventory of Mad Dog and the Pilgrim: 75,000
In addition to the books Lynda “Mad Dog” German and Polly “The Pilgrim” Hinds operate an “eccentric working farm” featuring two dogs ; four cats; 62 chickens; 26 sheep; two llamas; one milk goat; four pea fowl, and two ducks.
The roadside sign above is the only advertising they do for as German says “People who like books will find you.”
