You probably saw the Wolf Ridge Wind Farm north of Lindsay (NW of Gainesville). Nothing to do with the feds. It’s just really windy there. Home turf.
Texas retained right to all its public land when it became a state in 1845.
Yes, Wolf Ridge Wind Farm, I’ll bet that is what it was. Beautiful country and then you see the wind mills. YUCK!
I took Texas history in 7th grade, I don’t want to tell you how long ago that was. :)
