BookCrossing.com Crossing Zones in the Hocking Hills

One of our recent guests turned me on to a cool book sharing web site called BookCrossing.com. She left behind a recently read book, which she had picked up at a "crossingzone" in Canada. Inside were instructions for going online to register that I'd picked up this book (by its unique BookID) and what I was going to do with it. Since I'm a big reader, I love just about anything to do with books and sharing books.

So I've become a free member of BookCrossing.com and have created a Crossing Zone at our Marsh Hollow Pinewood Cabin and another at the wonderful Hilltop Bake Shoppe in Adelphi, just across the Hocking County line.

You'll have to make a reservation at Marsh Hollow to use our Crossing Zone, but you can stop by the Hilltop Bake Shoppe Tuesday through Saturday to look through the growing collection and pick up a new read. Or you can drop off a book if you'd like to -either already registered at BookCrossing.com or one you just want to leave behind.

And if you stop by the Hilltop Bake Shoppe, try the sour cream doughnuts. I guarantee these are the BEST sour cream doughnuts anywhere. And as I've mentioned in the blog before, the pizza is the best in the Hocking Hills.
