Klee Wyck Journal – speaker Lou McKee

Lou McKee has written and illustrated a book, Klee Wyck Journal. She and her husband David are ocean kayakers who, after many years, claimed a wilderness beach on the west coast of Vancouver Island. After being caught in heavy rains with tarps and tents, we decided we wanted better shelter and built a cabin, the participants being our family and friends, and it took about 15 summer vacations to complete. During this time, she kept a journal and illustrated the nature around her every day. Besides the drawings and observances, the program also tells the story of our community of people and wild animals, the building of the cabin, food we eat, general musings, adventures in our kayaks etc.

They will present a power point, do readings from the book, encourage audience discussion.  They will have books to sell, original art from the book, and a copy of the original journal.
