A niece is born!

Family: 

Kari Peyton Shedrick entered the world today at 1:45 p.m. EST. My sister, Cindy, and Kari are both doing well after the birth. Kari weighs in at 8 lbs. 10 oz. and is 20.5 inches long.

Dominic, my brother-in-law, says he's already working on how he'll keep the boys away ;) She's beautiful so I wish Dom luck in this endeavor ;)

Portland Open Source Software Conference

The first thing I need to say is that it's so nice to see so much green. Portland's downtown is beautiful with big maple and oak trees lining the downtown streets. The riverfront park that separates downtown from the Willamette River stretches quite a ways and provides the path from the hotel I'm staying at to the conference location. It's hard to believe that Portland and Oregon have the highest unemployment rates for US cities and states. It's such a great town, who wouldn't want to locate a business here?
