This is a little different from my usual post but I wanted to get the word out.

OnTheTrail.org Blog is now available via your Kindle! I would like to welcome any new readers that are getting OTT via Kindle. I would like to invite you to also visit our website at www.onthetrail.org. You will find lots of trail information for trails like the Pacific Crest Trail, the John Muir Trail, the Sierra High Route and more.

In my daily readings at Kindle Nation Daily I came across some helpful information on using your Kindle and wanted to pass it along. If you are experiencing any trouble with your subscriptions downloading or syncing, follow these instructions before you contact support:

Step-by-Step: Kindle System Restart

   1. Make sure your Kindle is on.*
   2. Disconnect the Kindle from the USB or Power Adapter cable.
   3. Press the Home button on the right edge of the Kindle.
   4. From the Home screen, press the Menu button on the right edge of the Kindle.
   5. Select "Settings" from the Home Menu.
   6. From the Settings page, press the Menu button again.
   7. Select "Restart" from the Setting Menu.
   8. Wait a couple of minutes for your Kindle to Restart, then give your Kindle another few minutes to update files, blog posts, etc.

*If your Kindle does not come on, or seems frozen, connect it via its Power Adapter to a wall outlet and give it an hour to re-energize itself.

See you on the trail, Peter
