This is Naturally Yours art gallery and gift shop in Lipscomb, Texas. We met Debbie—one of the women who runs the gallery—and she invited us for coffee and the best home made cobbler we’ve ever had. The place is alive with artists who visit on Saturdays and fill her kitchen with conversation. She cans all sorts of fruits and vegetables which are for sale in the shop also.

The third Saturday of each summer month they host a dance. It has become a big event with a couple of hundred people coming to a town with a population of 44.

Lipscomb and Naturally Yours is a must stop if you’re anywhere in the northeastern Texas Panhandle.

The third Saturday of each summer month they hold a big dance. It’s been going on for 12 years now and it’s bigger than ever.

Okay, so this place is tiny. Really tiny and also out-of-the-way but it is very cool. They have developed something of an art’s scene. There is a monthly elevated dance platform dance during the summer. Lots of people come for it. In the fall they celebrate with a fall foilage tour and gallery tour.

The streets are quiet and dusty. It’s strange, it’s almost a ghost town, but it’s cool.
