Texas Canyon Revisited
People visiting the Amerind often comment on what a nice place Texas Canyon would be to live. Actually, people have been saying that for thousands of years. the canyon is filthy with archaeological potential. I imagine that's why William Shirley Fulton purchased the 1,600 acre ranch in the canyon in 1930.
John Wayne used to stay at the Triangle T Guest Ranch in the canyon while filming in the area.
During WW-II the guest ranch was commandeered by the Federal government as a place to hold under house arrest the entire diplomatic staff of the Japanese embassy from Hawaii.
