This is a view of the back entrance to the Historic Bullock Hotel where I stayed in Deadwood a couple of weeks ago. (In the HBO series, the closest-to-heroic character is Seth Bullock, a real merchant of that wild early period.) It was more interesting to me than the front on Main Street, where every other building houses a bar/casino. I'd rather imagine that street as it was in the 1870s and in series: unpaved, rutted, muddy (or dusty). In other words, not prettified for the bus-trade tourists (mostly Canadians, I was told). Being so close to Sturgis,SD, where tens of thousands of bikers congregate for 2 weeks in July to party-hardy, Deadwood gets some of the over-flow and, thus, also has shops catering to that trade. Aside from leather wear of all sorts, particularly the unmentionable kind, there are also T-shirts with tasteful slogans like: "I'm His Bitch" and "Hog-Tie and Ride Me".)
