Coming down the mountain from Mt. Rushmore into Deadwood the speed limit drops from 65 to 25 mph. The welcome wagon was there to meet us and issue me a $90.00 speeding ticket. I guess casinos are not enough income for this town. Deadwoods big claim to fame is the death of Wild Bill Hickock in the Saloon #10 holding the deadmans hand of aces and eights. The problem is the are many Saloon #10's in town all claiming to be the real place. Very touristy. We did stop by boot hill to see Calamity Janes grave. I was expecting a cool old cemetary, but found more of an amusement park them with all new stones. Admission $1.00. Very touristy.
