Spring break !!

Sue and I decided to take a break in early June. I love the HBO Deadwood series and have been looking into the history of the era and the area (the Dakota Black Hills). So, we decided to visit South Dakota, a part of the country that we haven't seen. Of course, we'll stay in Deadwood. You can see Deadwood as it is today here: http://www.blackhillsdiscovered.com/siterun_data/places_to_go/deadwood/

A lot of the hotels look a bit basic but we managed to find a decent suite (the Grand Celebrity Suite) at the Celebrity Hotel on main street, seen here: http://www.celebritycasinos.com/Celebrity_luxurybathroom.html

The plan is to be based in Deadwood, play some of the casinos and tour the Black Hills countryside looking in at the historical sites as we go. Should be a lot of fun !!!!
