Fairburn Hotel

Once upon a time this hotel must have been a hopping place, judging by the three stall outhouse, out back. That time is no more, as evidenced by this information.

We are enjoying some time in South Dakota and my wonderful wife found a nice adventure for us. At the top of this road are many rocks and we came away with two buckets of what hopefully will turn out to be beauties. Life is good.
