Free museum in small town surprisingly big. Took us 45 mins to go through not reading everything. Goes over town's history and the XIT Ranch history as well as the dust bowl. Some really great displays.

Interesting history of our state that needs more exposure. Did you know that the XIT ranch is how our state paid to build the capitol building? We left the museum eager to do more research on this bit of history.
