The story began with a 5-week journey in a 1997 RV, from Richmond, Va to Utah and back, July 23 through August 27, 2011. The next step included the sale of that RV and the purchase of a larger, classier RV we call Princess. Now we have changed RVs again. We sold the Princess to a family of 5, and purchased a 2017 Class C, smaller than the Princess but some better features as well as some limitations storage wise. And so our adventures continue.
The town of Deadwood looks better now than it did 6 years ago when we were here last. We only saw one tour bus and that was probably for a casino in town. There are plenty of those in town but a few of them have gone out of business. The newer commercial businesses are on the outskirts of town, leaving the main town road as it was many years ago when Wild Bill was killed there. He and Calamity Jane are buried nearby.
