I’m SO glad Books For Hikers is SO popular …with hackers… NOT!!
Sorry for this latest week of down time, folks. We’re up and running again.

Back from oblivion (being hacked).
Oct. 15, 2019 — I think it’s been a couple of weeks since Google/Firefox put a ‘red screen of death’ up when people tried to access booksforhikers.com. Not being a technically-savvy person when it comes to dealing with the nitty-gritty behind-the-scenes stuff, the first time I saw that screen I went into a seriously stressed-out mode. Finally settled on a company called malware.com to fix the problem, but fixing it took some time because I had to allow them access to my site to do the necessary ftp-ing and whatnot for me. Then I had to deal with Google to get them to un-block my site. It looks like the red screen is finally gone today, on both Firefox and Explorer. I need to think of some way to celebrate!
And, by the way, the latest two books I’ve added are, 1) A novel about an A.T. hostel and a bunch of hikers, by Mark Moore titled “Thirdway” and 2) a memoir of a calendar year Triple Crown, “Free Outside” by Jeff Garmire (listed under all three trails: AT, CDT, and PCT.)

Playing catch-up
I’ve been AWOL for quite a while. Sorry ’bout that. I’m now playing catch-up. Just added quite a few books to the Appalachian Trail page and one to the Pacific Crest Trail page. Hoping to pay more attention to this site in the months ahead.
