more sunburns, more art and coffee.

we spent most of our day today at the chinati foundation wandering the grounds and looking at the art there...the judd stuff was awesome, the chamberlain pieces were interesting in a great space and the rest was...well, it's really all great just not all of it rocked our boat...
we also found a coffee shop today - this is a big deal here...had some local pizza for lunch and tried to see the world famous marfa lights - still bullshit as far as i can tell...
oh, and we had dinner at sonic burger again since almost everything is closed here sundays. no shit, this ain't the big city leroy.
we've moved from alpine into marfa and set-up shop at the paisano hotel. nice.
here are a few pics from today....ok, more than a few.
