Today I pilgrimaged to Devil's Tower National Monument--a destination that's been on my list since Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released in 1977.
After a hike around the rock I rode to South Dakota, specifically Sturgis and Deadwood. The former should be visited during Bike Week. Today it looked like a carnival that wasn't quite ready for prime time. Deadwood was a treat.
They've renovated the historic downtown and if you like westerns and/or gambling (autocorrect originally inserted "goblin") halls, this is your kind of place. Tip: the prime rib lunch buffet at the Silverado is worth the $11.
Tomorrow: Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse Memorial.
Or not, it's supposed to snow tonight.
