As Fred Noe shared in the batch release notes, the second U.S. release in the Booker’s 2025 Collection is Booker’s Batch 2025-02 “By the Pond,” a heartfelt tribute to Booker Noe’s beloved backyard pond. This special place was more than just a pond; it was a dream brought to life by Booker, who, with the help of his son Fred, built it from scratch to raise fresh catfish and bluegill for family suppers. Despite initial challenges, like a leaky liner and a fifty-foot maple tree that shed its leaves, Booker’s determination transformed it into a tranquil oasis. This cherished spot became a profound sanctuary where Booker found peace and spent countless hours reflecting, often with his grandson Freddie by his side, soaking in the warm Kentucky days. It was a place he felt truly at ease, and this batch is a reminder to find your own slice of happiness, wherever it may be.
