Culture, Climate and Cool - DMN
Western Civilization Thrives in Marfa
The Dallas Morning News has produced a 5 article segment devoted to the "Marfa Scene" as they call it. The thread which traces through these stories is the connection to current or former Dallasites. The stories are on the left, and the photos are not to be missed.
The blessed life - a cute story about Buck and Camp's discovery and transformation of an old church and rectory. The architectural details and furniture are so cool. This home exudes marfa with funky, yet clean spaces all due to good ol' sweat equity. 11 photos.
Off the bus - Shelley and Harry's converted bus station (w/ fabulous door by Camp Bosworth). How 'bout that cowboy boot collection? - nicely juxtaposed on a Metro shelf... that's a metaphor. 18 photos.
Sky's the limit - a photo expose of Robert Bellamy's hilltop getaway. Bellamy's clever use of found objects together with his excellent landscape architecture are right at home in Marfa. Architectural design by William Baker. 12 photos.
Nothin' doing - Bobby Minyard's place of serenity (yes, that Minyard) is a classic white adobe house. 11 photos.
Quirky, arty, western - Marfa is the life to covet in the middle of nowhere (as if we already didn't know! - open the floodgates). 17 photos.

What causes the weather in Marfa to be the coolest in Texas much of the time? Is the temperature gauge in Marfa, Texas broken or mis-calibrated?
