The other side of town
Most anyone who’s ever heard of Marfa, Texas, will have heard of it as an artist’s town.
So, of course there’s all the stuff related to the Chinati Foundation. And the Food Shark. And the smallest NPR station in the country.
But then, there’s also this scene.

I want to go to Marfa, desperately. I blew through it on the train last year, but I was on the wrong side of the car and missed the sign 😦

This could be heaven, this could be hell. Either way you captured it nicely.

Thanks, Andy! The desolation is what I like best out in that part of Texas.

It looks like the poles are holding up those flat clouds. Very interesting juxtaposition.

Thanks, Vera. The clouds DO look as though they are held aloft by the poles, something I didn’t notice until you pointed it out!
