Description

Photograph of two people hugging at the Terlingua Chili Cook-Off. They lay on the ground in a large wooden palette, with the man on the left's legs stretching over the palette's side into the air. The man's arms stretch out into the air as well, his left arm wrapping around the waist of a woman to his right. The man has short hair and wears a t-shirt, belted pants, and cowboy boots and has a bandana tied around his neck. Multiple flattened beer cans can be seen under the wooden palette, below the side the man's legs extend over. To the right of the man lays a woman with short hair who wears a t-shirt, pants, and sneakers. She also has a bandana around her neck and lays on her right side, turning towards the man to wrap her left arm over his torso and her right arm around his neck while he smiles. Behind the two people is a collection of objects and a standing board. The objects include wooden boxes, plastic boxes, glass bottles, and a pot sitting over a small, circular structure set into the ground. The standing board is tall rectangular with a wheel painted near its bottom right corner and a curving line extending off of its top right corner. It also has the number "7240" painted near its right edge. The ground in the photo is dirt with small loose rocks.
