New Mexico was one of the last states, if not the last to outlaw open pit dumps. Pilar had one across the highway from the cafe and every once in a while someone would light it. People just dumped everything there, changed their oil, dumped animals alive or dead. I adopted a cat from there once. This painting is inaccurate because I don’t remember any time that the fire truck came from Dixon. Since there was nothing around it, it was just left to turn and was really very beautiful at night.
