Episode SummaryA proprioception-enthusiast and a thespian walk into a podcast booth. Together, they engage with scholars from three different fields outside of those traditionally working with and through the sense of proprioception. From spatial music mixing, to arts education, to English literature, our hosts learn how these scholars understand and apply the sense of proprioception for their work. Through the engagement process, the proprioception-enthusiast and the thespian come to understand the affordances of proprioception for framing bodies in space and time and refigure how they understand the space between you and me.

Tread Perilously's summer Patreon request month winds down with a visit to 1990s westerns via an episode of The Young Riders called "The Peacemakers." When Hickok rides into Glen Creek, he sees an Amish baptism interrupted by a gang of interlopers. Aiming to help, he soon learns the small religious community is a target for persecution by the nearby town. The tension is stoked by the local newspaper publisher, who has more than one reason to want the Amish out of the county. Complicating matters: Hickok has made eyes at one of the Amish girls. Also, a mysterious man puts a washed-up gunfighter on Hickok's trail. Meanwhile, McCloud and the Kid discuss their relationship. For various reasons, Erik and Justin start with a discussion of HBO shows. Erik praises Don Franklin, despite his absence in this episode. Stephen Baldwin's tendency to coast gets examined. Despite everything, star Josh Brolin turns out to be good here. Guest star James Cromwell leads to a lot of Star Trek and L.A. Confidential talk. Brolin's hairdo comes down for a hard critique. The C-plot with McCloud and the Kid gets revised while the B-plot proves to feature a Justin favorite. The pair try to determine why the show is so coy about the Amish being Amish and Erik finds the exact right movie to remind Justin how he knows guest actor Brenda Bakke.

Whether it's vanilla, strawberry or Neopolitan between two chocolate wafers, the dessert sure will hit the spot on a hot summer day. The original ice cream sandwich sold for a penny in 1900 from a pushcart in the Bowery neighborhood of New York. Newspapers never identified the name of the vendor in articles that appeared across the country. However, the ice cream sandwiched between milk biscuits became a hit. Soon, pushcarts popped up around the city and country during the summer months selling the portable treats. Early pictures show beachgoers at Atlantic City getting their ice cream sandwiches for 1¢ each.

Embark on a journey to the year 1867, where the grasses of the Plains whispered tales of imminent turmoil. Our episode chronicles the audacious maneuvers of Major General Winfield Scott Hancock, as he brandishes the might of the military in a perilous dance with the Plains tribes. We peel back the layers of the government's attempts at peace—efforts that were doomed to fail against the tribes' pressing need for their ancestral grazing lands. The narrative escalates as we trace the footsteps of scouts, the critical intelligence they gathered, and the armed escorts who became the lifeline of wagon trains venturing into the fertile prairies of spring.As the tension mounts, we find ourselves amidst the politically charged atmosphere of General Hancock's Indian Council Meeting. Listen closely as we recount the tales of Edward Wynkoop and "Wild Bill" Hickok, whose roles in this complex web of frontier relations were fraught with the push and pull of military strategies and diplomatic endeavors. Their stories unveil the intricate dynamics of cultural misunderstandings and political aspirations that brewed beneath the surface of this historic gathering, and the lingering effects that would shape the landscape of the American West.Finally, we delve into the relentless pursuit led by General Custer, painting a picture of a landscape where every move and countermove edged the U.S. military and Native tribes closer to the specter of war. From the controversial burning of a Cheyenne village to Custer's personal trials amidst these relentless chases, we leave no stone unturned. Through stirring anecdotes and strategic analyses, we offer a raw glimpse into the heart of the American frontier, a time of conflict and conquest that would forever alter the course of history. Join us as we bring to life the echoes of the past in this gripping episode.Support the showReturn of the Great HuntersCattle Drives WebsiteLegends of Dodge City WebsiteOrder Books

When an employee is injured, deadlines, budgets, and deliverables still need to be met while the team feels the stress of being short-handed. The injured employee needs support and resources as well. A wide swath of federal laws must be followed when an employee is injured, but some supervisors may lack the education and training to support their employees' needs. Karin Tierney, PHR, our VP of HR Consulting at Hickok & Boardman HR shares some of her expertise on this subject.

Gunsmoke is an American radio and television drama series about the Old West. It was created by director Norman Macdonnell and writer John Meston. The series follows the adventures of Marshal Matt Dillon, played by William Conrad on radio and James Arness on television. Gunsmoke is one of the most popular and longest-running Westerns in American history. It ran for 20 seasons on radio from 1952 to 1961 and for 635 episodes on television from 1955 to 1975. The series has been praised for its realism, its complex characters, and its portrayal of the Old West. Here are some interesting facts about Gunsmoke: The radio series was originally titled Gun Law, but the name was changed to Gunsmoke after the first episode aired. The television series was the first Western to be filmed in color. Gunsmoke was the first television series to be broadcast in syndication. The series has been remade several times, including a 1993 film starring Tom Selleck as Marshal Dillon. Gunsmoke is still popular today, and reruns of the series are often shown on television. In addition to these facts, Gunsmoke was also the first television series to be filmed on location in the Old West. The show was filmed in Dodge City, Kansas, which was a real-life town in the Old West. This helped to give the show a sense of realism that other Westerns of the time lacked. Gunsmoke was also one of the first television shows to deal with serious issues such as racism and sexism. The show often tackled these issues in a way that was both sensitive and thought-provoking. This helped to make Gunsmoke a groundbreaking show that was ahead of its time. Gunsmoke is a classic American television series that has stood the test of time. It is a show that is still enjoyed by people of all ages today. The show's popularity is a testament to its quality and its enduring appeal. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dwight-allen0/support

John “Liver Eating” Johnson was the inspiration behind 1972's Jeremiah Johnson but the real man's life was even more extraordinary than portrayed on film. Johnson/Johnstone was a sailor, soldier, fur trapper, prospector, scout, Indian fighter, and lawman. Sometimes a good guy, sometimes a bad guy, and always larger than life. Dubbed "Liver-Eating" due to a chilling tale of vengeance, he allegedly killed Crow warriors and consumed their livers, but are these stories true? Later in his life, Johnston assumed the role of constable in Coulson, Montana, and served as a town marshal in Red Lodge. However, his journey came to an end in 1900 when he passed away in a veteran's hospital in Los Angeles. Decades later his remains would be relocated to Cody, Wyoming, where they now rest alongside other legendary figures of the Old West.

Welcome to this episode of The Radio Vagabond, where I continue my road trip in the old west of the USA. We started in Billings, Montana, went to Yellowstone, and east to Devil's Tower in Wyoming. And in this one, I've driven an hour further east to a place with a Wild West History – and a place that is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West. My name is Palle Bo. Welcome to f*ing Deadwood… as they say in the TV series. BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA I'm in The Black Hills, a range of South Dakota mountains known for their stunning natural beauty and rich history. The hills are home to several national parks and monuments, including Mount Rushmore National Memorial, with the iconic carved faces of four American Presidents, and also Badlands National Park, which features unique geological formations and diverse wildlife. More on both of these a bit later. The Black Hills are also an important cultural and spiritual center for several Native American tribes, including the Lakota and the Cheyenne. In the late 1800s, the Black Hills were the site of the famous Black Hills Gold Rush, which brought thousands of settlers to the area in search of riches. THE GOLD RUSH PUT THIS PLACE ON THE MAP And we start in a small town in South Dakota that was a big part of this Gold Rush and so uniquely the old Wild West that it became the location and name of a TV series and a movie. I'm in Deadwood, South Dakota, a town with a rich and wild history that makes it one of the unique places in the United States. Deadwood attracted some of the most famous figures of its time, including Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane. Today, the town has embraced its history, with many original buildings still standing and used as hotels, restaurants, casinos, and museums. And I start my visit to Deadwood by going to one of these museums. ADAMS MUSEUM The Adams Museum is the oldest in The Black Hills, and I go to learn more about the rich history of Deadwood. In 1930 pioneer businessman W.E. Adams founded the Adams Museum right here in Deadwood to preserve and display the history of the Black Hills. He donated the building to the City of Deadwood. Inside, I speak to Visitor Services Associate at the museum, Diane. "The Gold Rush attracted many people here, and at the time there were 5,000 people living here. Today only around 1,200." Deadwood was founded during the Black Hills Gold Rush of 1875, and it quickly became one of the most dangerous and lawless towns in the American West. Lots of legendary figures used to hang out here, and let me fill you in on two of the most well-known. WILD BILL HICKOK AND CALAMITY JANE Wild Bill Hickok was a legendary gunslinger and lawman of the American West, and his death in Deadwood, South Dakota, is one of the most famous events in the history of the Wild West. Hickok arrived in Deadwood in the summer of 1876, and he quickly became one of the most recognizable figures in town. He was known for his gun skills and reputation as a lawman, and he has often seen playing cards in local saloons. His friend, Calamity Jane was another famous figure of the American West who called Deadwood home. She was known for her rough-and-tumble lifestyle and was a skilled marksman, but she is best remembered for her association with Wild Bill Hickok. Calamity Jane claimed to have been married to Wild Bill, but no historical evidence supports this claim. Nevertheless, she remained a popular figure in Deadwood and was known for her wild and adventurous spirit. Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane represent the spirit of adventure, the lawlessness of the frontier, and a big part of the rich history of Deadwood. MAIN STREET DEADWOOD I'm taking a stroll down Main Street. In the Deadwood series, this street was dusty in the sun and muddy when it's been raining. Now the street is paved, and no horses are tied outside the saloons. And it doesn't smell of horse manure and sweaty cowboys. It's still got that iconic Wild West look feel. It's incredible to think about all the stories and legends created in this small town. Walking the streets of Deadwood, I can feel the energy of the past and the spirit of the wild west. It's like stepping back to a place where gunslingers, gamblers, and gold miners roamed the streets. I will explore some of these historic sites Diane told me about at the museum, and my first stop is the saloon where Wild Bill played his last hand of poker. WILD BILL GOT SHOT HERE PLAYING POKER On August 2, 1876, Wild Bill was playing a game of poker at Nuttal & Mann's Saloon (Saloon no. 10), when he was approached by a stranger named Jack McCall. Wild Bill, with his long hair and iconic mustache, was sitting with his back to the door, and McCall came through the door, drew his gun, and shot Wild Bill in the back of the head, killing him instantly. It was later discovered that McCall was seeking revenge for killing his brother, and he claimed that Wild Bill was responsible. The death of Wild Bill Hickok shocked the people of Deadwood, and it quickly became a part of the town's folklore. Hickok's death remains one of the most famous events in the history of the American West, and it's a testament to the lawlessness and violence of the frontier. Although he was known for his skills as a gunslinger, Wild Bill Hickok will always be remembered as one of the most legendary figures of the Wild West. She lived on for 26 years after Wild Bill got killed, and today, their graves can be found side by side in Mount Moriah Cemetery right here in Deadwood. The signs at the cemetery read: James Butler Hickok, alias "Wild Bill." Born May 27, 1837. Died August 2, 1887. Victim of the assassin Jack McCall. Martha Jane Burke, alias "Calamity Jane." Born May 1, 1851. Died August 1, 1903. Her dying request: "Bury me beside Wild Bill". Even though they are both long gone, their stories continue to captivate people worldwide, and their grave sites are now popular tourist attractions. THE GHOSTS OF DEADWOOD With such a rich history and the lawlessness of many people being killed in these streets and saloons, it's no surprise that many people believe that Deadwood also is home to many ghost stories. One of the most famous ghost stories in Deadwood is that of Wild Bill Hickok, and inside Saloon No 10, I've just seen the chair he was sitting in and in a frame the playing cards he was holding in the poker game – the so-called "Dead Man's Hand." And it is said that his spirit still haunts the town and that, on occasion, visitors to Deadwood have reported seeing his ghostly figure wandering the streets at night. Some had even claimed to have seen him playing cards in local saloons, just as he was when he was alive. Another famous ghost in Deadwood is that of Calamity Jane. She is said to haunt the town, and visitors to the cemetery where she is buried, have reported seeing her ghostly figure wandering the grounds. Some have even claimed to have heard her ghostly laughter or the sound of her spurs clanging against the hard ground. But there are also several other ghost stories associated with Deadwood. The Bullock Hotel, for example, is said to be haunted by the ghost of former owner Seth Bullock, who is said to still walk the halls of the hotel. And the Bella Union Saloon is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman who died in a fire there many years ago. And then, the place I'm heading to now: The Fairmont Hotel. It is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West and the site of one of the most popular ghost tours in the area. The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a guided tour that takes visitors through the hotel's dark and creepy halls, exploring its haunted history and sharing tales of the spirits that are said to haunt the property. Inside I meet George, who can tell me more about this place. GEORGE SAW AND HEARD GHOSTS According to local legend, the Fairmont Hotel is home to several ghostly entities, including the spirit of a former hotel employee who died on the job and the ghosts of several former guests who never checked out. Some people have reported seeing ghosts wandering the halls or hearing strange noises coming from empty rooms, and the hotel staff has even reported seeing objects move on their own or hearing footsteps when no one is there. "I didn't believe in ghosts before I got here but I've seen two ghosts in the year and a half, I've been here. I was working upstairs, I saw a guy, dressed in black walk into a room. I went down to chase him, but he wasn't there. I also built a shoe rack, and I go up there and the sneakers are all over the place." George also tells me that he's only been afraid one time. "I was sleeping up there one night, and in between our two properties, there was a banging on the wall that shook both places. It was four o'clock in the morning, pitch black, and it was like "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM" about ten times. And that scared me because, I thought, if that ghost can hit the wall like that, he could hit me. And that's the only time, I was really afraid." The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a popular activity for visitors to Deadwood, and it's a great way to experience the town's rich and haunted history. The tour guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the hotel's history and the area. They are sure to keep you entertained as they share the stories and legends of the Fairmont Hotel and its ghostly residents. So, whether you believe in ghosts or not, there's no denying that Deadwood, South Dakota, is a town with a rich and colourful history, and it's a place that is steeped in mystery and intrigue. But what I love about Deadwood is that it's not just a place of the past; it's a thriving community with a bright future. The town has been able to preserve its history while also adapting to the changing times, and it's a great example of how a community can come together to celebrate its heritage while also moving forward. MOUNT RUSHMORE I drove about an hour south to Mount Rushmore, a famous landmark in the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA. It is a massive sculpture that features the faces of four American Presidents carved into the side of a granite mountain: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. Historian Doane Robinson first proposed the idea for Mount Rushmore in the 1920s to attract tourists to South Dakota. In 1927, sculptor Gutzon Borglum was commissioned to carve the faces of the four presidents, and work on the project began in October of that year. It was completed in 1941, after over a decade of work. As you approach this massive sculpture, you can't help but feel a sense of awe. The sheer scale of it is mind-boggling, with the precision of the carving and the sheer determination and hard work that went into this project. To think that this massive carving was created by hand, using only dynamite and chisels, it's just unbelievable. Today, Mount Rushmore is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, attracting millions of visitors from around the world each year. It is considered a symbol of American democracy and a tribute to the country's rich history. The sculpture also represents the values and ideals that have defined the nation, such as freedom, democracy, and patriotism. In addition to the carving of the four presidents, Mount Rushmore is surrounded by a National Memorial Park that features trails, scenic overlooks, and a visitor center with exhibits about the site's history and the presidents depicted. Visitors can also attend a lighting ceremony in the evening, where the faces of the presidents are illuminated in a patriotic display. THE CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL I know; I rolled that out pretty thick, didn't I? "A symbol to the land of the free and the home of the brave" and all of that. And even before it was finished, some felt that the Mount Rushmore project wasn't that brilliant an idea – when you consider how the land of the free and the home of the brave was stolen from the Native Americans. And just half an hour's drive from Mount Rushmore, another massive rock carving is in progress. So, I drove out to see that one too. The Crazy Horse Memorial is a monumental sculpture in the Black Hills of South Dakota and dedicated to the Native American warrior Crazy Horse. It is considered to be one of the largest sculptures in the world. The sculpture is being carved out of Thunderhead Mountain, and when completed, we will see Crazy Horse mounted on a horse with his arm outstretched, pointing to his people's land. The Crazy Horse Memorial was commissioned in the 1940s by Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear as a response to the Mount Rushmore project, which he felt was a desecration of sacred land. And The sculpture is being carved by Polish Sculptor, Korczak Ziolkowski and now his family (as he passed away in 1982). He started working on it since 1948, and now, about 75 years later – it is still a work in progress. The Crazy Horse Memorial was envisioned as a way to honor and celebrate Native American culture and history, and to provide a counterpoint to Mount Rushmore. While the two monuments are located relatively close, they have different themes and messages. The two monuments serve as reminders of the complex and often fraught history of the region and the ongoing efforts to reconcile and recognize the diverse cultural perspectives and contributions that have shaped it. BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK The next day, I was heading southeast to Nebraska and passed through Badlands National Park. It's some of the most unique and dramatic landscapes I've ever seen, located in southwestern South Dakota. Badlands is known for its rugged terrain and striking rock formations that consist of layered rock and deep canyons. The landscape is characterized by jagged cliffs, steep mesas, and towering spires formed from sedimentary rock and erosive forces over millions of years. The terrain is barren and arid, with sparse vegetation and a mix of sagebrush, grasses, and cacti. The predominant colors in the landscape are shades of brown and orange, with streaks of green along the intermittent streams. The park is also home to a variety of wildlife, including bison, pronghorns, bighorn sheep, and coyotes. Overall, the Badlands is a stunning and unique natural wonder, and visiting the park is an awe-inspiring experience that is not to be missed. So, I'm glad it was on my way to Nebraska. NEXT STOP NEBRASKA In the next episode, I get to have a farm stay in the rural part of Nebraska. Here, I stay with a family, Mary Lou, John, and their grown-up son, Chris, who take me out on the field checking on their cattle. And then Mary Lou will tell me a story of her Danish ancestor who immigrated from my home country, Denmark when she was just a young girl. All that, and much more in the next episode of The Radio Vagabond. My name is Palle Bo, and I gotta keep moving. See you. POEM WRITTEN BY AN AI In South Dakota's Badlands wild, Palle Bo wandered like a child, Amazed by landscapes, bold and new, That stretched out far, and wide, and blue. He heard of Hickok, famed and brave, Who met his end in a saloon's enclave, And of Calamity Jane, maybe his wife, Whose spirit lingers, still to life. At Deadwood, George from the Fairmount Hotel, Shared tales of ghostly guests as well, And Palle, with wonder in his heart, Felt the thrill of the Wild West start. But beyond the tales of days gone by, Loomed the faces, carved up high, Of four great presidents, proud and true, Gazing out over the Badlands, too. With awe and wonder, Palle took it in, And felt his heart and soul begin, To truly understand this land, And all the stories, grand and grand. Now, with sights still fresh in mind, Palle ventures forth to find, The farms of Nebraska, far and wide, Where new adventures yet abide.

On this episode, CEO Jessica Hickok and Sr. Director of Professional Development Krista Massad discuss The 2023 Swanepoel Trends Report for 2023 real estate, their take on what the American Dream is all about, and home ownership attainability in a post-pandemic landscape.
Welcome to this episode of The Radio Vagabond, where I continue my road trip in the old west of the USA. We started in Billings, Montana, went to Yellowstone, and east to Devil's Tower in Wyoming. And in this one, I've driven an hour further east to a place with a Wild West History – and a place that is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West. My name is Palle Bo. Welcome to f*ing Deadwood… as they say in the TV series. BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA I'm in The Black Hills, a range of South Dakota mountains known for their stunning natural beauty and rich history. The hills are home to several national parks and monuments, including Mount Rushmore National Memorial, with the iconic carved faces of four American Presidents, and also Badlands National Park, which features unique geological formations and diverse wildlife. More on both of these a bit later. The Black Hills are also an important cultural and spiritual center for several Native American tribes, including the Lakota and the Cheyenne. In the late 1800s, the Black Hills were the site of the famous Black Hills Gold Rush, which brought thousands of settlers to the area in search of riches. THE GOLD RUSH PUT THIS PLACE ON THE MAP And we start in a small town in South Dakota that was a big part of this Gold Rush and so uniquely the old Wild West that it became the location and name of a TV series and a movie. I'm in Deadwood, South Dakota, a town with a rich and wild history that makes it one of the unique places in the United States. Deadwood attracted some of the most famous figures of its time, including Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane. Today, the town has embraced its history, with many original buildings still standing and used as hotels, restaurants, casinos, and museums. And I start my visit to Deadwood by going to one of these museums. ADAMS MUSEUM The Adams Museum is the oldest in The Black Hills, and I go to learn more about the rich history of Deadwood. In 1930 pioneer businessman W.E. Adams founded the Adams Museum right here in Deadwood to preserve and display the history of the Black Hills. He donated the building to the City of Deadwood. Inside, I speak to Visitor Services Associate at the museum, Diane. "The Gold Rush attracted many people here, and at the time there were 5,000 people living here. Today only around 1,200." Deadwood was founded during the Black Hills Gold Rush of 1875, and it quickly became one of the most dangerous and lawless towns in the American West. Lots of legendary figures used to hang out here, and let me fill you in on two of the most well-known. WILD BILL HICKOK AND CALAMITY JANE Wild Bill Hickok was a legendary gunslinger and lawman of the American West, and his death in Deadwood, South Dakota, is one of the most famous events in the history of the Wild West. Hickok arrived in Deadwood in the summer of 1876, and he quickly became one of the most recognizable figures in town. He was known for his gun skills and reputation as a lawman, and he has often seen playing cards in local saloons. His friend, Calamity Jane was another famous figure of the American West who called Deadwood home. She was known for her rough-and-tumble lifestyle and was a skilled marksman, but she is best remembered for her association with Wild Bill Hickok. Calamity Jane claimed to have been married to Wild Bill, but no historical evidence supports this claim. Nevertheless, she remained a popular figure in Deadwood and was known for her wild and adventurous spirit. Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane represent the spirit of adventure, the lawlessness of the frontier, and a big part of the rich history of Deadwood. MAIN STREET DEADWOOD I'm taking a stroll down Main Street. In the Deadwood series, this street was dusty in the sun and muddy when it's been raining. Now the street is paved, and no horses are tied outside the saloons. And it doesn't smell of horse manure and sweaty cowboys. It's still got that iconic Wild West look feel. It's incredible to think about all the stories and legends created in this small town. Walking the streets of Deadwood, I can feel the energy of the past and the spirit of the wild west. It's like stepping back to a place where gunslingers, gamblers, and gold miners roamed the streets. I will explore some of these historic sites Diane told me about at the museum, and my first stop is the saloon where Wild Bill played his last hand of poker. WILD BILL GOT SHOT HERE PLAYING POKER On August 2, 1876, Wild Bill was playing a game of poker at Nuttal & Mann's Saloon (Saloon no. 10), when he was approached by a stranger named Jack McCall. Wild Bill, with his long hair and iconic mustache, was sitting with his back to the door, and McCall came through the door, drew his gun, and shot Wild Bill in the back of the head, killing him instantly. It was later discovered that McCall was seeking revenge for killing his brother, and he claimed that Wild Bill was responsible. The death of Wild Bill Hickok shocked the people of Deadwood, and it quickly became a part of the town's folklore. Hickok's death remains one of the most famous events in the history of the American West, and it's a testament to the lawlessness and violence of the frontier. Although he was known for his skills as a gunslinger, Wild Bill Hickok will always be remembered as one of the most legendary figures of the Wild West. She lived on for 26 years after Wild Bill got killed, and today, their graves can be found side by side in Mount Moriah Cemetery right here in Deadwood. The signs at the cemetery read: James Butler Hickok, alias "Wild Bill." Born May 27, 1837. Died August 2, 1887. Victim of the assassin Jack McCall. Martha Jane Burke, alias "Calamity Jane." Born May 1, 1851. Died August 1, 1903. Her dying request: "Bury me beside Wild Bill". Even though they are both long gone, their stories continue to captivate people worldwide, and their grave sites are now popular tourist attractions. THE GHOSTS OF DEADWOOD With such a rich history and the lawlessness of many people being killed in these streets and saloons, it's no surprise that many people believe that Deadwood also is home to many ghost stories. One of the most famous ghost stories in Deadwood is that of Wild Bill Hickok, and inside Saloon No 10, I've just seen the chair he was sitting in and in a frame the playing cards he was holding in the poker game – the so-called "Dead Man's Hand." And it is said that his spirit still haunts the town and that, on occasion, visitors to Deadwood have reported seeing his ghostly figure wandering the streets at night. Some had even claimed to have seen him playing cards in local saloons, just as he was when he was alive. Another famous ghost in Deadwood is that of Calamity Jane. She is said to haunt the town, and visitors to the cemetery where she is buried, have reported seeing her ghostly figure wandering the grounds. Some have even claimed to have heard her ghostly laughter or the sound of her spurs clanging against the hard ground. But there are also several other ghost stories associated with Deadwood. The Bullock Hotel, for example, is said to be haunted by the ghost of former owner Seth Bullock, who is said to still walk the halls of the hotel. And the Bella Union Saloon is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman who died in a fire there many years ago. And then, the place I'm heading to now: The Fairmont Hotel. It is said to be one of the most haunted hotels in the American West and the site of one of the most popular ghost tours in the area. The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a guided tour that takes visitors through the hotel's dark and creepy halls, exploring its haunted history and sharing tales of the spirits that are said to haunt the property. Inside I meet George, who can tell me more about this place. GEORGE SAW AND HEARD GHOSTS According to local legend, the Fairmont Hotel is home to several ghostly entities, including the spirit of a former hotel employee who died on the job and the ghosts of several former guests who never checked out. Some people have reported seeing ghosts wandering the halls or hearing strange noises coming from empty rooms, and the hotel staff has even reported seeing objects move on their own or hearing footsteps when no one is there. "I didn't believe in ghosts before I got here but I've seen two ghosts in the year and a half, I've been here. I was working upstairs, I saw a guy, dressed in black walk into a room. I went down to chase him, but he wasn't there. I also built a shoe rack, and I go up there and the sneakers are all over the place." George also tells me that he's only been afraid one time. "I was sleeping up there one night, and in between our two properties, there was a banging on the wall that shook both places. It was four o'clock in the morning, pitch black, and it was like "BOOM, BOOM, BOOM" about ten times. And that scared me because, I thought, if that ghost can hit the wall like that, he could hit me. And that's the only time, I was really afraid." The Fairmont Hotel Ghost Tour is a popular activity for visitors to Deadwood, and it's a great way to experience the town's rich and haunted history. The tour guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the hotel's history and the area. They are sure to keep you entertained as they share the stories and legends of the Fairmont Hotel and its ghostly residents. So, whether you believe in ghosts or not, there's no denying that Deadwood, South Dakota, is a town with a rich and colourful history, and it's a place that is steeped in mystery and intrigue. But what I love about Deadwood is that it's not just a place of the past; it's a thriving community with a bright future. The town has been able to preserve its history while also adapting to the changing times, and it's a great example of how a community can come together to celebrate its heritage while also moving forward. MOUNT RUSHMORE I drove about an hour south to Mount Rushmore, a famous landmark in the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA. It is a massive sculpture that features the faces of four American Presidents carved into the side of a granite mountain: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. Historian Doane Robinson first proposed the idea for Mount Rushmore in the 1920s to attract tourists to South Dakota. In 1927, sculptor Gutzon Borglum was commissioned to carve the faces of the four presidents, and work on the project began in October of that year. It was completed in 1941, after over a decade of work. As you approach this massive sculpture, you can't help but feel a sense of awe. The sheer scale of it is mind-boggling, with the precision of the carving and the sheer determination and hard work that went into this project. To think that this massive carving was created by hand, using only dynamite and chisels, it's just unbelievable. Today, Mount Rushmore is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States, attracting millions of visitors from around the world each year. It is considered a symbol of American democracy and a tribute to the country's rich history. The sculpture also represents the values and ideals that have defined the nation, such as freedom, democracy, and patriotism. In addition to the carving of the four presidents, Mount Rushmore is surrounded by a National Memorial Park that features trails, scenic overlooks, and a visitor center with exhibits about the site's history and the presidents depicted. Visitors can also attend a lighting ceremony in the evening, where the faces of the presidents are illuminated in a patriotic display. THE CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL I know; I rolled that out pretty thick, didn't I? "A symbol to the land of the free and the home of the brave" and all of that. And even before it was finished, some felt that the Mount Rushmore project wasn't that brilliant an idea – when you consider how the land of the free and the home of the brave was stolen from the Native Americans. And just half an hour's drive from Mount Rushmore, another massive rock carving is in progress. So, I drove out to see that one too. The Crazy Horse Memorial is a monumental sculpture in the Black Hills of South Dakota and dedicated to the Native American warrior Crazy Horse. It is considered to be one of the largest sculptures in the world. The sculpture is being carved out of Thunderhead Mountain, and when completed, we will see Crazy Horse mounted on a horse with his arm outstretched, pointing to his people's land. The Crazy Horse Memorial was commissioned in the 1940s by Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear as a response to the Mount Rushmore project, which he felt was a desecration of sacred land. And The sculpture is being carved by Polish Sculptor, Korczak Ziolkowski and now his family (as he passed away in 1982). He started working on it since 1948, and now, about 75 years later – it is still a work in progress. The Crazy Horse Memorial was envisioned as a way to honor and celebrate Native American culture and history, and to provide a counterpoint to Mount Rushmore. While the two monuments are located relatively close, they have different themes and messages. The two monuments serve as reminders of the complex and often fraught history of the region and the ongoing efforts to reconcile and recognize the diverse cultural perspectives and contributions that have shaped it. BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK The next day, I was heading southeast to Nebraska and passed through Badlands National Park. It's some of the most unique and dramatic landscapes I've ever seen, located in southwestern South Dakota. Badlands is known for its rugged terrain and striking rock formations that consist of layered rock and deep canyons.

Few names associated with the old west are as recognizable as Wild Bill Hickok. And for good reason. In many ways, Wild Bill was the quintessential westerner of the later 19th century. Wagon master, scout, soldier, spy, lawman, gambler, actor, and yeah…gunfighter. A man capable of extraordinary feats of daring and bravery, yet courteous and soft spoken when left alone, and kind to children. One of the few frontiersmen who was willing to take his guns off and go toe to toe with anyone looking for a fight. But also, a man who – even by generous accounts – was a bit too quick when it came to pulling a trigger. He could cuss like a sailor, consorted with ladies of ill repute, and would rather gamble than eat. He was Friends with other notable frontiersmen like Buffalo Bill Cody, George Armstrong Custer, Kit Carson, Calamity Jane and Inspired future legends like U.S. Marshal Bill Tilghman and countless others. A celebrity in his own time, Hickok continues to tickle the imagination of millions. From the early silent film era till now, everyone from Gary Cooper to Charles Bronson to Jeff Bridges, Sam Elliot, and Keith Carradine has portrayed this icon on the big screen. But who was Hickok really? What sorta man was he? As with many notorious characters of the old west, much of the legend is built on exaggerated claims and outright lies. But in Hickok's case the truth is even more fascinating fiction. And the truth is what aiming for today.

Rapha presents Life in the Peloton! Photo: Twila Muzzi It's finally time for the women to take on the Tour de France. It's a huge deal that the Tour is finally back on the calendar for the women, and as I wasn't able to be on-race, I thought what better way to get the inside word than talking to some of the participants from this year's edition. On the eve of the race, I was lucky enough to talk to three of the women competing for EF Education Tibco SBV, Kathrin Hammes from Germany, Krista Doebel-Hickok from the US, and the team's Italian rider Letizia Borghesi. I think the growth of racing on the women's side of the sport is fantastic. It's no secret that women's cycling is playing catch up with the men's in terms of the budgets and races. I spoke to Kathrin, Krista and Letizia about how they look back at the pioneering women who came before them and also how it feels to now be in a position to be a part of the growth of women's professional cycling. All three of them have interesting stories of how they came to the sport, and talking to them opened my eyes to the fact that until very recently female athletes didn't really consider that there was a career to be made in cycling. I very much got the sense that passion is more than the profession and that is perhaps an interesting distinction that explains a few differences between the men's and women's pelotons. Of course, we also delved a little deeper into the nuts and bolts of the Tour de France Femmes itself and along with looking at the details of the course, we also spoke about what the team is hoping for from the eight days of racing across France. I found it a really insightful chat, and I wish all the women racing the best of luck for the Tour.
