The warmth of a setting sun contrasts to the grim evidence presented by still another of Carrizozo’s shuttered restaurants. This image conveys a sad irony – the beer is “cold,” the chili is “ho-made,” and there is a help wanted sign tucked in front of the window shade. Yet there is also a “closed” sign in that window, and a “for sale” sign behind this restaurant. My own shadow adds a punctuation point to this image – we were looking for a place to have dinner, but it would not be found here.
