Higher = Cooler
You want 70's & 80's? Come back in a month..
The Black Hills are beginning to turn toasty. Yesterday's high of 94 will spike to 97 today, & Sturgis emptys out during the daylight hours as those on two wheels head for the mountains, where it's much cooler. For most, this means it's time to roll on up the mountain to Deadwood and beyond. Finally: Decent eats at a good price; Deadwood's.. "Tin Lizzy's", 8-oz sirloin, spud & veggies, $7.99. If you're over 50, the price drops to $5.99...Guess they think you won't be around much longer, so they cut the short-timers a special deal? Anyway, it was done perfectly, medium rare, and tasty, a lot of eats for not a lot of money. The slots on the far side of the room, away from the sidewalk & windows were paying off nicely, too.
Rock & Roll @ the Rally: John Kaye/Steppenwolf, in what's being billed as their "final" tour, plays the last Saturday at a new party venue, called the "Boneyard", Whitefish exit, just west of Sturgis. Glencoe campground doing Smashmouth, 38, and ...Tanya Tucker. That's one wild babe. I'll bet she rides.
Can't make it to the world's best party this year? Hit your back button, and click "sample shows" for a one week run from last year's Sturgis, and lock in your local ABM affiliate for our "12 Days of Sturgis", a dozen all-new shows beginning August 1st, and running thru the 12th.

Today's the day we leave the no-tell motel and set up camp. Am not looking forward to unrolling that tent, there's no telling what we'll find inside. Think we'll do some half pound burgers for starts, topped off with red onion, lettuce & 'maters. For some odd reason, there seems to be no place you can find decent grocery store chicken around here. Plenty of beef, pork, but the chicken looks like crap. Don't even ask about shrimp, we're a loooonnnngggg way from the ocean.
Today is also the first in which we can try to make an attendance assessment for Sturgis '07. Our initial feeling is that it'll be about the same as last year, or slightly down, but gas is a quarter a gallon less than August '06, so we'll see...
Quite a few properties inside Sturgis are up for sale, including a bar or two. Some very nice mountainside homes in the $150k range, about half of what you'd pay for similar square footage on the eastern seaboard, and, nowhere near the amount of "for sale" signs you'd see back east.
ABM will continue to report to the website as wifi hotspots become available, so check in often!
