Deadwood & Whistler's Gulch

Well, the guy at Whistler's Gulch kept his promise and found us a campsite. Too funny.  Ever camp on a basketball court?  Well, not exactly on it, but right next to it. As it turns out, the spot is great.  We're the closest campers to the restrooms and showers, the pool is in our "back yard" and we have a great view of all the action.  We're on a big hill so we see all the 5th wheels and motorhomes piling in.  We get a lot of thumbs up as they pass by us.
We took the shuttle trolley into town late afternoon to check things out.  Went to Saloon #10 where Wild Bill Hickok was shot and watched it happen. :)  It was a fun reenactment.  Then on to looking at all the old cars.  Rick really enjoyed this as it brought back a lot of good memories for him.  He had some great conversations with people from all over the U.S.  We topped the evening off with a really great steak dinner at Maverick's (I love the wild west) and trolleyed back home about 1030 pm.  Crawled into our little camper and slept like rocks.  Life is still good.  Happy trails.
P.S.  Yes, that's Rick in the pool.
