Of course, barns are always of interest. Real barn lovers may remember the SAHS December 2009 program presented by former Lawrence County extension agent Leo Orme called the Barns of Lawrence County..
These guys were real cowboys -- the strong and silent type!
Warm surroundings, a fine presentation, tasty snacks, and an interesting tour. All the makings of another great program for the Spearfish Area Historical Society.

The Historic Preservation Office in Deadwood has been a supporter of the Frawley Ranch restoration project.
Of course, restoration is old hat to Hank Frawley, who played a key role in helping to preserve and restore the old county courthouse in Deadwood some years back.
