Third stop, day 2 - Blogabond

Debbie's Log: Our third stop of the day brings us to Garretson, SD around 12:30 for a visit to Devils Gulch to see where Jesse James jumped to escape capture. The rain has stopped and the sun is out. WOW what a cool site. We walked the bridge across the site Jesse James jumped on his horse to escape capture. When I saw this site in real time, I thought no way- however there was a 100 year old photo in the gift shop that showed the gulch back then- still flat and no trees- and I changed my mind to maybe/probably a true Story. The rain helped the rapids run and we were treated to a waterfall, which we were told sometimes doesn't run in the summer. Beautiful scenery and nice, but muddy trail. Found a geocache of course, thanks to Grandpa!!! Now back to the camper to clean up and off to our next stop. Still on schedule for the day, amazingly!!!
