CNN.com ran a spot this week about Monowi, Nebraska, a town with as small a population as possible. Its one resident, Elsie Eiler, is mayor, owner/cook of the town's restaurant, and founder/librarian of the town's library.
The segment reminded me of Lost Springs, Wyoming, a one-person town I photographed in 2006 on my last road trip with film. (While, incidentally, eating the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had — eggs and cheese with a thick slab of fresh-cut bacon — purchased from a nearby truck-stop diner.)
