What began as a kayak adventure through exotic waterscapes encountered record heat and drought conditions that forced the adventurers to slow down and experience spectacular landscapes, rich history, ancient spirituality, a legacy of war and genocide, environmental challenges, friendly people, and the delicious food of Southeast Asia. Dangerous conditions became the opportunity to "linger with the lotus" and discover hope for this amazing region.

Dave Ellingson is an adventurer, author, film maker, podcaster and speaker known as the Paddle Pilgrim. He is a kayaker, Lutheran pastor, former college professor, Master Gardener, and former distance runner and triathlete. He is married, the father of five grown children and five grandchildren, and resides in Edmonds, Wash. Both Ellingson and Dr. Deby (Akerberg) Cassill, who will be joining us on Zoom, are Clear Lake High School graduates from the class of 1965.

A monthly opportunity to read the same books as others in the community without the added obligation to meet and discuss the book. Just check it out and return it like you would with any other inter-library loan book!

She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan: In 1345, China lies under harsh Mongol rule. for the starving peasants of the Central Plains, greatness is something found only in stories. When the Zhu family's eighth-born son, Zhu Chongba, is given a fate of greatness, everyone is mystified as to how it will come to pass. The fate of nothingness received by the family's clever and capable second daughter, on the other hand, is only as expected.
