About the host
Hosted by Jerry Wayne Beaird

Jerry was raised in Merkel Tx, and always loved roaming these hills south of Merkel. He graduated from Texas A&M with a Bachelors degree in Animal Science, but spent most of his career as a Jeweler. Nela grew up in the beautiful country of Costa Rica, but moved to the states in her late teens, first to Bay Saint Louis Mississippi , then later to Abilene. Both Jerry & Nela love the outdoors & settled in this area due to its outdoor beauty & serenity.
