The town of Stoneburg sits at 97.9 degrees west, and about twenty miles south of Red River Station, where cattle drives along the Chisholm Trail crossed into Oklahoma. “It still …
I opened my eyes about halfway through the Japanese sound bath. Lee Johnson, a 65-year-old rancher and dead ringer for the actor Sam Elliott, was tiptoeing around the room in his white tube socks, ever so gently ringing a small bell at various distances from the heads of my fifteen classmates, who were lying on …
The summer sun is slip-sliding away when my pal Courtney and I arrive at a labyrinthine two-story compound that houses our destination: Ishtia, an unexpectedly experimental restaurant in the stunningly improbable location of Kemah, a coastal town of about two thousand souls 25 miles southeast of Houston.

Miranda Lambert grinned as she stood on the smallest stage she’s played in years. She’d just debuted an irreverent, rowdy hook—“Are we in love, or are we just drunk?” from “Bitch on the Sauce (Just Drunk)”—to the thrilled screams of 180 dedicated fans, who were mostly decked out in Miranda shirts, sparkles, fringe, or all …
