How rural? Is there a main highway close by? Are there any towns near? Any rivers?
Well anyway here's a few things that came to mind without knowing the specifics:
Antique auction house (small towns have loads of antiques tucked away and people are willing to go out of their way to find them and bid on them);
Is it a dry county? Private Club Dance Hall / live music;
Check the soil and see what unusual cash crop could be grown there, west texas maybe pistachios? Almonds? East Texas maybe some of the new fruits
that the health conscious are into?
Also, be sure and check if the state has it listed in an economically depressed area, could be some state help on laying in electrical and water if
the business would create jobs.
BTW, what county are you in?

Edit to add: Lol, we posted at the same time, you answered about your location. I'll keep thinkin' on it. Also, I'm from Linden, Texas
originally.
