I have the following I'd donate to the cause:
* 1982 Hellweg & Fisher 'Stoney Point Guide' (NEW, or as new can be from 1982)
* 1956 Hervey Voge / Sierra Club 'Climber's Guide to the High Sierra' (the cover paper is worn, the hardcover book itself is in excellent shape)
They'll go to whomever makes the highest offer for each between now and Friday at 5pm with payment going to Todd via paypal. He tells me he got it, I ship the book.

Glad to help out with a donation and if those two books above don't sell they'll be coming your way as well. You guys have opened your home to an ocean of folks over the years, seems only fair for the kindness to flow back in towards you for a bit during a rough patch.
