My hike buddy Debbie and I had our first-ever book swap in support of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. For those of you who came out, thank you! I hope you had fun and left with some books you are excited to read. I had a blast, even though it did get a tad crowded …
Restock your bookshelf while helping a charity with Debbie & Jodi’s first-ever book swap for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. For a measly donation of $15, you could walk away with dozens of books, even if you don’t have any to swap. Green Apple Books has kindly donated more books than we could have imagined, …
Well, I’m coming up on the last month of training before the big hike. I’d hoped to have my fundraising all wrapped up by now, but this year is a tough one for many financially, so it’s a bit harder than my previous hike for LLS in the booming days of 2006. Having said that, …

I’m looking for creative ways to raise that {gulp} $4,000 that I still need to raise. So how about this, one lucky person who donates to my hike before July 4 will get a tasty care package with homemade goodies from baker Jodi. I’ll randomly pick from the names of all my donors at that …
