RL: Thankyewverrymuch! Ooh, don't forget to turn down the flame under those fonts lest you have this: http://www.fontsy.com/font_details_2965.html
Shelly: Will do, and you know I'll be a short drive from Marfa this weekend...here's hoping my road-trip friend is patient (and that her back holds up for the 7+ hour drive).
I went to Carmen's Cafe the last time I was in Marfa. Darn good Tex-Mex, slant light through cheap lace curtains, homely hand-painted murals, a cabal of tough-looking middle-aged ladies dishing over lunch, some old frail gentlemen, and no sign of the foo-foo arts community except for one table's denizen wearing Euro-styled eyeglasses. Oh, and there was the lady with the green parrot...
From back when I was playing with a digital camera for the first time ever: http://chatoyance.blogspot.com/2005/11/lunch-in-marfa.html

A side-note for Shelly:
