Nomad's Notes

I had been contacted by Taz just a few weeks before. A friend of hers had been on another outing before and told her about us. She said, "I live in a big house full of naked students - we want to be part of this!" I already had a full schedule of other events coming up but this seemed like a really good fit. I had previously scouted some of the Sacramento River Delta with Martini and his party boat. A small boat, a small group - perfect. No room for extra photographers so I gave one small waterproof camera out for free use and I slung both my video camera and SLR around my neck. Martini had a camera too. So we were covered. It was a warm day on the delta. This is an expansive shallow water system with many marshy islands. There are many private channels one can disappear into. The water was not warm but very inviting under the hot sun. We drove the boat around and finally found a small beach where we spent the rest of the afternoon. The boat had mechanical problems and at the end of the day we had to be rescued and towed back to the marina, as you will see in the last video. It was quite an adventure.
