Due to some medical bills for my son Von that aren't covered on my insurance, I am trying to generate some money with a book sale. If you see a book (or books) on this list that you are interested in for your collection, just name your price, add $3.00 for postage, and I'll send you the book. Take a look at the list; You don't have to post your price....just post that you WANT the book, send me your check (plus $3.00 shipping), and I'll send you the book. No offer will be refused.. you call it;..that is the price.... Thanks for helping out.....once again....Todd Gordon P.O. Box 138, Joshua Tree, Ca. 92252.

Thanks, Dave, Bob, and Erik;.....send me your addresses, and I'll send the books ASAP......and Bob ;...yeah;....thanks for the help;.....our son Von is OK....he has cerebral palsy, and had to have two braces for his legs, and our insurance wouldn't cover him going to a pediatric specialist to get the braces made...so we went anyways ourselves, and it's $1800......which we didn't have laying around;...at least not this month...so time to get busy, get creative, and generate some more income.......thanks again........

Todd I hope all the awesome karma you have been building up by helping everyone is coming right back to you here. Good luck!
I don't sell many books and I don't know if anyone wants an Alaska Rock Climbing Guide but anyone who buys one for the rest of the month from my website www.alaskarockclimbing.com will get a book and all the money goes to Todd.
