Trip to Marfa and Fort Davis

Spring Break 2010

 

The patio fountain of the Hotel Paisano in Marfa Texas

In 1955, the movie “Giant” was filmed in Marfa.  We stayed in the room Rock Hudson stayed in.

 

The best thing about this room was the great patio.  It was big enough for Grant to practice on his skateboard.

 

 

We lit up the fires and relaxed.

 

 

We went out to see the famous Marfa lights and then came back and made Smores!

 

The next day we drove to Fort Davis and stayed at the Hotel Limpia.

 

Grant decided to take a dip in the pool.

By the way, the water is 39 degrees.  That’s not a problem, is it?

 

Guess not!

 

We relaxed in the hammock.

 

We watched Tuxedo the Cat sleep.
