Our last day in the Black Hills

Deadwood is a very historic and quaint little town that was the center of one of the largest gold rushes in American history. It also has the distinction of being the town where Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are buried.  Today it is filled with gambling halls, bars, and gift shops.

It has a lot of great old architecture.

And a sense of humor-

We watched a re-enactment of the Hickock murder in Saloon #10. Here's Bill (on the right) and his murderer (Jack McCall) with Susie. McCall walked in and shot him point blank in the back of the head for unknown reasons.

I found Bickel's next bike there. I didn't see a price tag or I would've gotten it for him for an early Christmas present. He'll just have to swing by himself.

We also had time to swing through Spearfish Cyn. and see the waterfalls. This is called Roughlock Falls and was really spectacular. We saw many trout in the river.

Tomorrow- Devils Monument.
