About this listen
“What I didn’t know, was that I wasn’t going to be all alone for long.”
Self-employed at 19 years old, creating business after business, pursuing the next sale and following one adventure after another. Never slowed down by the lasting effects of polio contracted as a baby. Fast forward—no time for reflection, until COVID and turning 62 stopped him in his tracks. He was retired and alone for the first time in his life.
Alone, Fred Boenig’s biggest fear.
So now what?
An inexpensive fishing rod turned out to be the answer. He started fishing one day, and fished every day after that, for a year. What did he find, who did he find?
Fred learned the skills of catching fish, discovered the politics within the fishing community, developed a personal ethics of fishing, and nurtured unlikely friendships.
And he met himself, the one he hadn’t had time and space to meet before.
Keeping Time by the River is his story. He discovered that he wasn’t alone, he was by himself.
