marfa, texas is one of those odd ball places you wouldn't expect to find in texas. kind of like austin in that it's doesn't feel like part of texas. it's its own state inside of tx and oddly enough has a huge art scene. there are many artist residencies and galleries there. it is also the smallest town i've ever been to, literally one traffic light in the whole place and you see the same people every day. there was one african american and one filipino living there that we met on the first day and continued to see them around town every day. wow. the entire town is only a few blocks long so it's one of those places where you are driving through the desert and there is nothing for miles then a small strip of town and then back to nothingness. almost like a mirage.
