Granada and a distant storm

080116

I got up early on my last morning in Alpine and took a walk down Holland Avenue. When I turned around to go back to the hotel, I saw thunder clouds piling up above the mountains east of town.

Later, at breakfast, I heard a woman say she’d seen lighting.

It never rained.

Target Marathon (a guerrilla art installation)

So remember the other day when I posted a non-traditional view of the well-know Prada Marfa art installation?

This piece, known as Target Marathon, showed up one day this past January, and so far no one has claimed responsibility for it. I believe it is sort of an artistic middle finger thrown in the direction of Prada Marfa, which is about 80 miles away.

Laundromat, early morning

An early morning walk – I was trying to catch the cool part of the desert day – gave me a very nice view of this laundromat.
