Joey comes from an Italian-American family of 8 children, of which he is the only male. He is one of the few "Friends" that made few moves of home, having only changed apartments four times in the series.
Joey has a career in acting. He also pursued modeling at one point. It was successful until he learned his latest picture was that for a health safety poster advertising VD. The poster was shown all over the city, including the scoreboard at Madison Square Garden and led to him being briefly ostracized by his friends. His character is known for his simple-mindedness, trouble with understanding negative criticism of his acting, love of food and success with women, which generated the popular catchphrase "How you doin'?". However, he is something of an idiot savant in matters of romance. This is directly allued to in the episode 'The One Where Ross Dates a Student', when Chandler, referring to Joey, says "A hot girl's at stake and suddenly he's Rain Man."
His roles varied from doctor to headshot in the above-mentioned public health poster for VD. Joey's most famous acting role was as Dr. Drake Ramoray on the serial drama Days of Our Lives. However, when he claimed in an interview that he wrote many of his own lines, the writers of the show became annoyed and killed him off a few episodes later. His character later returned after a bizarre plot line resurrected him. In Season 7, he was up for a Soapie for Best Returning Male Character. He lost, so he tried to steal one. Joey's agent was Estelle Leonard.
Joey famously shared an apartment with his best friend Chandler Bing. The two formed perhaps one of the most likeable and enduring television friendships in sitcom history. Their adventures included losing Ross's baby son on a bus, Chandler's dismay at Joey building an entertainment center which was so big it covered both of their doors, buying a chick and a duck, replacing their dining table with a foosball table, spending hours watching Baywatch and Chandler living in a box to prove how much their friendship means to him. A long-running gag depicted Joey and Chandler occasionally fighting with each other like an old married couple. The two "broke up" temporarily after Joey found success as Dr. Drake Ramoray, but soon moved back in together. In the final episode, Monica destroyed the foosball table, before Chandler moved to the New York suburbs to begin their new family. However, Chandler and Monica made it clear that their new home would have a specially designated "Joey room".
Joey is perhaps the most loyal of the friends. As he said in The One with the Jellyfish, "If I had to, I'd pee on any one of you!". In one episode, when Joey believed Phoebe to be pregnant, he proposed marriage, claiming the world is too scary for a single mother alone. However, when it was revealed that it was in fact Rachel who was pregnant, Joey proposed to Rachel, making the exact same speech and demanding the ring back from Phoebe. He also offered to stand up for Ross and Chandler when they were being bullied at Central Perk, and he allowed Monica to hire and fire him so as to prove to her employees that she was not a pushover. When he discovered that Monica and Chandler had developed a romantic relationship and they learned about it, he agreed to keep it a secret until the two were ready to reveal it to the rest of their group. He also called Chandler moments after suspecting Monica of having an affair with a mystery male he had heard in her apartment (who in fact turned out to be Chandler. "I told you you shouldn't have married someone so much hotter than you!").
Joey's relationships with the other Friends have always been very friendly. He is best friends with Chandler, and Ross is a close second, if not tied. Rachel and the other women on the show have been the object of many unintentionally sexist comments on Joey's behalf, especially Monica. Chandler once put it, "Your long-standing offer to have sex with my wife is much appreciated." This statement fairly accurately summarizes his behavior around most women. Notwithstanding this apparent boorishness, however, he always enjoyed a close relationship with Monica, Rachel and Phoebe.
Cottonwood Creek Preserve is a 220 acre wilderness area located at the east end of Cottonwood Valley Road in Wilmer. A 2 mile natural surface trail follows the creek, crosses the creek via a foot bridge and returns to starting point.
The original owners grazed cattle, farmed and grew pecan trees on the property. They desired that part of the homestead remain as nearly like it was in the late 1870’s and offered the land to the County for a preserve.
The cache is a camoed decon container hidden just off the mowed area that runs along the fence line.
