Inherited land

I've inherited about 40ac of land an I'm trying to figure out what to to with it. The land is all together and not land locked. It's located about 90 miles from Dallas. There's basically nothing near the land. There's a small college about 10 miles away. That's about it. The trees were cut about 7 years ago for the lumber value. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do with some land like this?

The question is, is there any demand around the area for anything? Are the residential units all farms or subdivisions? What is the population of the area? Is there anything around that draws tourists or ? Is there any industry to speak of? How big is the college, # students?

What about a Bed and Breakfast? Agri-tourism or ? (pumpkin farm with hay rides, etc, Christmas tree farm with Santas Village, vineyard, organic farm or ranch?) Need more info. Pics would be nice too.
