Hidden Gems - Sunday Gulch in West Pennington County

Published by admin on Thu, 06/30/2022 - 9:17am

If you drive Highway 16 at all, you've probably driven past a dam between the turn to Sylvan Lake and the turn to Mount Rushmore. Hidden in that corner beyond the roar of traffic is a peaceful little lake called Sunday Gulch.
When first arriving, there is a decorative bridge crossing a gentle stream. You can look over the edge, watch the water bubble over the rocks and even spot a dime in the water where someone made a wish. Meanwhile, just beyond the stream is a mass of reeds and cattails whistling in the wind and nodding in the breeze.

Neil Simon’s “The Odd Couple” is playing at the Black Hills Playhouse. And despite some small opening night mic issues the production is a unique take on an old favorite.
The story is simple. Felix Unger turns to his best friend, Oscar Madison, when his 12-year marriage ends. Madison and Unger are quite different and learn to navigate together as roommates.
The comedy explores the difficulties of learning to live with another person as well as how to cope after the end of a marriage.
