Chapter 19
By now, you all know . . .
that Floyd insists that I continue to
share my "gallery of photos"
with our readers . . . and we hope you enjoy them
as
much as we do . . .
Mid - February 2005, I returned from my second retirement from an extended cross-country
tour visiting my east coast family, to accept a job offer in the east bay area of San Francisco. I bought a 1966 33’ Fairliner, and named her “Fresno Rose”, to meet my live-aboard needs. She & I lived just southeast of Isleton on the Mokelumne River.
The “Fresno Rose”, was also my floating art studio.
While living
aboard the “Fresno Rose”,
I wrote my
first book
“Letters of Intimacy & Devotion . . . In The Rose Garden”
"Click on the Title of my book to preview"
that winter, but it was not published until 2009.

I also took many photos
while living on my "Fresno Rose",
Floyd asked that I share with our readers
a "short" Photo Essay of . . .
The Story of Joe & Floyd . . .

The Story of Joe & Floyd . . .
Before
Joe & Floyd was a Story
Joe & Floyd was a Story
as we have chosen to, just, enjoy our slow weekly motoring
along Delta Sloughs and taking breaks to chat with family.
Many of you may recall,
that Floyd & I have revised our initial plan to navigate the
Delta waterways from a single event,
to a journey that may take
several seasons to complete.
The reason, is because the intent was not to measure miles . . .
but rather to create our own "Huck Finn & Tom Sawyer"
memories on the Sacramento Delta . . .
and . . .
share the importance of living in the present.
“Together we can
find a Cure”
“None of us can escape our
mortality . . .
but we all can add value to our life, by celebrating our journey with
friends and family.”
So until a cure is found,
Celebrate your journey
with friends and family.
