Welcome to another episode of The Inn Between. Today, we have a fascinating tale to share about Josh and Tessa Shandley, the owner/operators of Josh's Frio River Outfitters. Their journey began back in 1991 when Josh was just twelve years old. Josh and his dad had a love for the outdoors and fishing, so they decided to open a simple bait and tackle shop. They didn't aim for anything extravagant, just a place to share their passion with the local community and tourists. Surprisingly, the response was overwhelmingly positive, and their business started to thrive.   That's when Tessa entered the picture. Inspired by her entrepreneur father, she joined forces with Josh to take the business to new heights. Growing up, both Josh and Tessa were encouraged to explore and figure things out, which instilled in them a sense of creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. Now, as parents themselves, they want to pass down those same values to their children. In the Frio area, it's common for children to grow up in their parents' businesses. This upbringing teaches them valuable people skills, as they interact with customers who are either happy or upset. Throughout the episode, Josh and Tessa share heartwarming stories from their experiences as business owners, aiming to make a positive impact on everyone they serve.   Join us as we delve into the journey of Josh and Tessa Shandley, from their humble beginnings to the thriving business they run today. Get ready for inspiring tales, insights into parenting, and the importance of fostering innovation.   IG- @tessashandley FB- Josh'sFrioRiverOutfitter joshsfrioriveroutfitter.com   [00:00] Welcome to Josh and Tessa!  [01:55] How Josh's Frio River Outfitters came to be  [06:00] Before Tessa and after Tessa [07:57] Tessa and her background  [10:30] Growing up encouraging independence  [13:39] Where to connect with Josh and Tessa [14:27] Being innovative with parenting and business  [22:58] Stories from the business and a couple rabbit trails  [37:34] Josh's name is actually his nickname  [39:14] Tourism is about making a good vacation for people [41:19] Getting to play a part in a family's memories [46:36] What Josh and Tessa are most excited for this summer  [52:02] The unique perfume (and the cologne) [57:57] Wrapping it up 

Imagine yourself floating down the Frio River. It's a warm day but not nuclear hot like this summer has been. The water is cool, your tube is comfortable and your cooler is full (with Topo Chico or other beverages of choice). And 2 of your friends are philosophizing about suffering, art and a host of other topics... that's what this conversation with Nathan Perrin feels like. Nathan and I dig in around his spiritual journey and ending up as an Anabaptist-Quaker Pastor. We talking about the amazing healing powers of art, movies and writing to speak to our suffering and reflect on our pain. Nathan is also a fiction writer and a great storyteller, so I really delighted in this thoughtful and redemptive conversation.

In this episode we talk with Artist, Enneagram type 4, and yoga teacher, Katherine Hanks, about how Enneagram types 7, 8, & 9 can become the truest version of themselves. Katherine Hanks is an interdisciplinary artist based in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains. Her work is a part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History archives and has been featured in Where Women Create and City Scope Magazine. Katherine's earliest memories were set against a limestone canyon along the emerald green Frio River in the Texas hill country. This closeness to wilderness awakened in her a hunger for the sacred and the drive to create. From 2014–2019, Katherine ran Annie Hanks, a collaborative ceramics studio in Chattanooga, TN. The studio was integral to the community and small business landscape of the town and produced work for clients nationwide. Katherine's currently focusing on a new body of work inspired by her identity as mother, her intimate connection to land and the body, and her experience navigating sacred mystery.

At age 22, Andi picked up an old acoustic guitar after she had her son so she could write her own songs and sing to her new born.  Even though she had been singing her whole life, singing while playing the guitar quickly went from a hobby to a passion.  Andi wrote and wrote and then wrote some more.   As the music and lyrics poured out of her,  she performed across Southern Texas in festivals and fairs.  Spending some time as a musician in the few years following, it never became full time.  Her life as a single mom, raising her son and  working full time kept her very busy.  It was the life she wanted and loved with no regrets.Andi was born and raised in the Houston area.  Her Texas roots run deep.  The love she has for the Texas Hill Country started at the age of 6 when she took her first trip to the Frio River.  Although Andi has traveled and lived in other places throughout her adulthood, her goal was to get back to Texas and play her music!  In 2015, Andi moved back to Texas!  After a quick trip to New Braunfels from North Dakota, where she lived at the time, she decided that New Braunfels needed to be her new home.  And after a visit to Gruene Hall where she watched local singer/songwriters perform, she knew without a doubt, she could come to Texas and perform her music again, only in big ways this time.Today, this Texas native is now performing originals and covers full time across the central Texas and surrounding areas.   She is making up for lost time and making a name for herself in big ways as her journey continues!  Throughout 2021 and 2022, Andi has performed at the San Antonio rodeo, performed a set at Gruene Hall and has opened for amazing Texas recording artists like Courtney Patton and Zac Wilkerson (and more booked in the near future).  She is currently in the studio recording with seasoned producer Keith Davis and other talented Texas musicians.  She, along with 3 talented girls (Alli Mattice, Kelany Brent and Kayla Jane) started a new female quartet known as The Billie Jeans.   Andi performs full time as a Solo, duo, trio or full band, depending on venue needs.  Hire her for a big stage, a small acoustic stage or a private party!  This girl is going places and doesn't plan on quitting anytime soon!  Follow her on all social media platforms to see where her journey leads.  http://andihollemanmusic.com/https://open.spotify.com/track/2yGn7ZCpJk7TJsW1g2rX5J?si=sdFsJ0cDQ5WLxIWnpYmyig&context=spotify%3Asearch%3Aandi%2Bhohttps://www.facebook.com/Andi-Holleman-Music-106005471959959/https://www.instagram.com/andihollemanmusic/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUQ6bBKPO1D7DXymNIDFuTw

If you take an evening stroll around the banks of the Frio River in Southern Texas, you may notice the fog moves a little differently down that way. It moves in a whisper and you can't quite hear what it's trying to tell you. You frantically rub your eyes to help you see better as the fog gets thicker, and when you open them again, there she is. The ghostly figure of a woman dressed in white. Her name is Maria Juarez, and hers is a story of love and betrayal. --Watch the show on Youtube HERE--Today's episode is brought to you by Omio--Want ad free episodes?

Show Summary:   Yuri's mother and grandmother worked hard to instill Jesus and good principles into his life at a young age. But when he went to spend some time with his dad, he was introduced to a lifestyle  that would set him on a course to receive 50 years in prison. But it was during that prison time that Yuri ran into the love of Jesus through prison volunteers, and traded in Crips for Christ.     This interview was fun knowing that we were right next to the Frio River on seven beautiful acres with lots of wildlife. We even saw some deer on the property. At one time I got a pic that had a hummingbird, a squirrel, several deer, and a regular bird as well.   To talk to Yuri now, it's really hard to see in him the dark past he shares with us in this episode. You can just feel the anointing of God on his life. You can see the joy, humility, and favor of God all around him. I got to meet his beautful bride and his awesome father-in-law.   Yuri is another example of how God can take our broken lives and turn them into something powerful for his Kingdom. God can redeem our past and use it to help turn others around.   Check out the links below to hear some of Yuri's music and to see more pics. Check out his youtube channel and follow him on facebook.

Mike and Melissa Cummings own Camp Riverview along the Frio River, which is a very popular destination for river tubing excursions. They are joined by Brian and Tina Bourgeois, who manage the camp. The campground needs workampers this summer to help process reservations, check guests in and out, operate the camp store, and perform outside work as well.  They will also assist guests with arts and crafts, hay rides and laser tag in addition to the water activities. Bilingual workampers are especially welcome.

Javi is back from a roadtrip to Houston and a vacation along the Frio River. Javi tells Jen about his experience with chicken and waffles at The Breakfast Klub in Houston and explains why you can't expect star treatment at La Quinta.

https://thedaytripper.com/podcasts-uploads/Daytripper_Podcast_BigBend_July2016_Ep029.mp3   It's summertime in Texas and it's HOT!  And just about anything with water is fair game when we are looking for ways to stay cool….rivers, lakes, the coast, retention ponds… Join us as we relive childhood memories at swimming holes and discover new ones with Jordan Breal (@jordanbreal on Twitter) and Courtney Bond (@clbond on Twitter) from Texas Monthly. The inspiration for this podcast came from their recent issue called “Splash” that is all about swimming in Texas. Swimming spots we discuss include: The Frio River at Garner State Park (because of course, it's a Texan rite of passage! We suggest checking out Neal's Lodges) San Felipe Creek in Del Rio (Texas Monthly says it's great for frolicking…) Gus Fruh in Austin (It's sort of a secret hideaway and there's a rope swing…what more do you need?) Hamilton Pool in Dripping Springs is a must-see (just be prepared, you must make reservations) The Blue Hole in Wimberley is always a Texas favorite (and it makes for a great road trip!)  Port Aransas Coast, McGee Beach or Matagorda Bay are great for attempted surfing (or boogie boarding) Check out Boykin Springs for breathtaking waterfalls The Comal River in New Braunfels (Perfect for tubing…just hold on to your stuff on the tube shoot!) For SCUBA diving, San Solomon Springs in Balmorhea and the Athens SCUBA Park are two of our favorites! Two of the best kept Texas secrets are Reimer's Ranch and The Narrows in the Blanco River (sorry folks, this one's on private land) If you'd like to up your swimming hole difficulty level, check out Devils River (Warning: No cell phone service!) or the Lower Pecos River (Texas Monthly spent 6 days paddling it!) You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and the Windows store! This endeavor is generously supported by Mighty Fine Burgers Fries Shakes.
