The No. 10

My favorite hangout in Deadwood by far is the No. 10. My mom was afraid to go by herself because apparently it is the "rowdy" place in town. Sweet! My kind of place. It is also the home of Beer Pong Tuesdays.

The No. 10 is the center of social activity in Deadwood. They host the Pimp and Ho ball, have some of the best bands in town, and my favorite 11 am poker tournaments. What you don't know when you walk in the joint is that everyone that works here is related. This is a small town..... a town that the locals protect.... and seemingly a town that no one wants to leave.

I am a girl who's lived in big cities all my life. Born New York, raised Bay Area and never lived anywhere in the middle. I like this town. The countryside is breathtaking and the people genuine. I have skiing, hiking, rock climbing and fun within 1/2 hour on all sides. But.... shhhh I'm not supposed to say I like this place. The locals want to keep it a secret, but I think at least they might want to keep me too.
