Oh! You think the ghostly ladies were teasing us about our risqué bare ankles? I hadn’t thought of that, and I love it.

It makes me wish I had spent more time inside some of the well-preserved buildings rather than soaking up the ambiance as I walked around outside on a long summer night. This little tour makes me recall a few things about that part of South Dakota: what a well-kept secret the Black Hills really are (there’s so much more to see and do than just Mount Rushmore or Crazy Horse), and how quickly the temperature drops from blazing hot during the day to jacket weather after dusk, even in July (the high elevation is key).

And what stunningly brave ankle photos! It can’t help make me wonder if that’s a reference to the hotel’s role as a bordello, since 19th century West is definitely still a time when women showing their ankles would have been a signal of–well, you know.
