Calexico - 11/24/08 - Denver, CO

Good morning sunshine. Now I know we are nearing home.

I look outside and Jacob and Karin are walking through a used-car lot and checking out a vintage motorcycle with the owner. Martin and I hear of several good breakfast options and settle on John's suggestion of Mexican food a few doors down. We pass several thrift and army surplus stores. The barber shop is closed. The streets are wide and the air surprisingly clean.



Time melts into a slow Monday afternoon here and as we load in gear to the Gothic Theatre, the gentleman whom we met in Marfa appears. Jacob and he converse about latin albums from the 1970's and motorcycle rides on the Pan American Highway.



For dinner a bunch of us go next door for some of Moe's BBQ and Bowling before ramping up to the big night at the Gothic, sparks and all, in the post-Halloween splatter.
