El Paso to Marfa Texas
My friend Liz was flying into El Paso to join me for a West Texas road trip. I had a few free hours to fill before her arrival. Naturally, I went hunting for murals. My search took me through neighborhoods I might never have seen otherwise, and even then I only scratched the surface. With a three-hour drive ahead, I wanted to stretch my legs. First plan, a Saturday craft and farmers’ market.
