Now David and his wife own and operate the eclectic bed and breakfast, Book Nook Inn located in the golden triangle of Southeast Texas.
Hearne’s many experiences helped shape his world views. Having been exposed to so many divergent viewpoints, he discovered a good command of history was a necessity to detect the truth amid all the noise.
