About the host

Hosted by Randy & Becky Harris

Host profile image
Hello! This is Randy Harris, born in Mobile Alabama. I met my childhood sweetheart Rebecca Alisch when I was in the 11th grade. We married on my birthday in 1973 and also the same day when Becky graduated from Auburn University. We have been married for 51wonderful years and blessed with 4terrific children and now 7 fantastic grand. It has been said, “If you count a man’s value in life by his family, then I am a billionaire!”

I am living in the closest place to Heaven on Earth that I can imagine. We have 25 acres of mountain land located in North GA with a 3 acre lake looking up at a 700+ waterfall. We are surrounded by National Forest and have a beautiful log home. I also built a 1500 square foot barn with all the “man” toys that a guy could want.

My philosophy in life has always been, “To treat the other person like you wanted to be treated.” To always tell the truth and there is right and wrong, good and evil and a Good Lord above us that one day we will answer to!'

We have Chickens, Indian Runner Ducks, Nigerian Dwarf Goats, Rabbits andQuail.

Becky and I live above the garages and have a private entrance. We are on site to be there if you need us. It's kind of like having a Connoisseur at the front desk at a resort.
