A global pandemic, a leaky raft, and a captain completely
unqualified to navigate the Mighty Mississippi —
What could possibly go wrong?
Afraid of the dark, scared of wild animals, and with no actual mariner skills, Erich Mische
traveled nearly 1,700 miles through ten states for two months on a leaky pontoon with a
garden shed on top to save the nonprofit organization he leads, Spare Key, in the middle
of the Covid-19 global pandemic. Mische quickly learned he was even less qualified for
the trip than he imagined, or others had correctly discerned.
Braving brutal waves and wakes, navigating behemoth barges the size of office buildings,
encountering a hurricane — plus flying carp (!) — all while keeping in touch with
folks via live interviews, live streaming, and blogging, Erich persevered in his quest to
discover, and contribute to, Hope on the River at a time when hope was needed in our
world more than ever.
The questionable decision to undertake the journey on one of the most powerful, legendary,
and dangerous rivers in the world nearly cost Mische his life but never his belief that
America remains the most indispensable nation filled with the most remarkable people
on Earth.
