Wild Bill's and Calamity Jane's Graves

When we visited Deadwood, South Dakota a week ago, we didn't go to Mount Moriah Cemetery where Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are buried.

For one thing, RVs aren't permitted on the access road to the cemetery. Also, I didn't see any tram service that goes to the cemetery. We're just too old to try to "hoof" it up there.

I did visit the cemetery in 1990. 

A photo by Dave Williams in Facebook states that this is how Wild Bill's and Calamity Jane's graves look today:

Here's how the graves looked in 1990:

The graves look a lot better now.
