Artist in residence Rolando Diaz explaining some of his film "Recapturing Cuba" at the Nasher Sculpture Center for the artist in residence party on April 3rd.
What does a highway in Dallas have to do with Denton history? Quite a bit. Our history will always be tied in with Dallas and Fort Worth. We once called ourselves "The Top of the Golden Triangle". I asked someone from those two cities once what it was like to be the bottom of the Golden Triangle. He answered that at least it was on a sound base. The American highway system is for all rights and purposes the "Eighth Wonder of the World,." It's just too common place for us to see it clearly. The fact that it links Denton to Dallas is a whole cultural and economic chapter by itself.
Texas has received a huge amount of rain over the past few weeks which is evident in the flooding of the Trinity River.
