Passport to Texas from Texas Parks and Wildlife

If the weather this January is frightful ... know that the 
Texas Parks and Wildlife television programming is 
certainly delightful. And series writer/producer Bruce 
Biermann is here to highlight a few shows in the weeks 
ahead.

One is GIS Game Wardens. They use GPS - global positioning 
information - to help them on a more in-depth level as first 
responders to emergencies; figure out how to locate things. 
There's also Abilene State Park - it's a very family friendly park. 
And they have yurts, which are these big wooden tents of sorts 
that you can camp in. It's real fun. The week of January seventh, 
McKinney Falls State Park is right in downtown Austin, almost. 
It's an inner city park of sorts. It's got a beautiful waterfall and 
really good hiking, and it's very, very accessible to the city. The 
week of January fourteenth is Davis Mountains State Park. There 
are the old CCC buildings that have been recently rebuilt out 
there. The lodge that you can stay at. It's a beautiful, scenic 
west Texas state park; there's lots of good hiking out there. 
And, on the week of January twenty first, it's Four Legs and Four 
Wheels - it's a game warden story about the only horse patrol in 
the whole state by the game wardens. :58
