TPW TV -- REFUGE: A woman on the autism spectrum finds 
hunting with her husband calming ... on Passport to 
Texas.

This is Passport to Texas (November 20)

Difficulties in social interaction, anxiety, verbal and 
nonverbal communication are characteristic of 
individuals on the autism spectrum. Robin Bradberry 
lives with this condition.

06 -- You always know deep down, you know you don't quite fit 
in, but you really want to, but you never will.

Robin, who is married to Steve, finds spending time 
hunting together calms her. Meet the couple in a 
segment on the TPW TV series on PBS as they hunt deer 
on public land. 

19 -- I like it, I've never hunted in any place quite this open 
before so I'm curious to see what shows up and how they move! 
Just getting settled in adjusting the blind windows, I think we've 
got it positioned where we can just ease the gun out there. 
Steve calls is nesting.

Robin does better away from the high energy, high 
stress world, which makes a quiet hunt on public land 
good medicine.

23 -- This is almost like therapy for me. It [autism] doesn't exist 
out here. It's more serene out here. You don't have all of the 
movement of people, and distractions. You come out here and 
you can focus on your surroundings more. And listen. And you 
can listen. Exactly. There's nothing. There's wind. There's 
crickets ... 

Vie the segment with Robin and Steve Bradburry on the 
TPW TV Series on PBS the week of November 29.
