Burkburnett is a nice little town. There are interesting museums in Wichita Falls about the oil boom, etc. The town is named after Burk Burnett, a ranch owner, and, at one time, there were oil derricks all over town. Spencer Tracy and Clark Gable starred in a movie about the oil boom, Boomtown. Clever title, eh?
