Jack and I recommend a visit to Deadwood, South Dakota. Especially if the sun is shining!
This statue is of Wild Bill Hickok, the most famous Old West character associated with Deadwood.
If we remember correctly from reading about the history of Deadwood, this creek at one time flooded the town and is now specially engineered to flow through and under the town.
This is Adams Museum, a beautiful building with 3 levels packed full of interesting items from Deadwood’s past. Here are some highlights:
And here is another striking statue, this one of a Cowboy on a bucking horse.
________________
The signs on the main street of Deadwood are really fabulous!
We wish we could have spent time in each of these places. But we have to say that the Deadwood Social Club Restaurant is terrific…they make their own blue cheese dressing and it is more than worth the walk up those stairs!
We happened upon a darn fine Wild Bill impersonator.
And then ran into a fan of Jack’s, Ed, running the parking garage.
Thanks Deadwood for showing us such a fun time!
