All set to go to Portland, Oregon!

This was originally posted on blogger here.

I'm off to the Pacific Northwest, specifically Portland, Oregon for DjangoCon. I'll be presenting a tutorial with James Tauber and participating in two panels. This sort of event is always a lot of work, study, and networking. I won't have much time to go sightseeing because this is a working trip, but I'm sure to squeeze in a little bit.

Portland is a very green city, has great food, and is famous for cycling. I'm sure I can find something to do!

Thanks to everyone who had a hand in me getting there or is holding down the fort back home. The quick list would be in alphabetical order:

• Chris Adams

• Corin Turner

• Dave Sanchez

• Jim Consalvi

• Katie Cunningham

• Katie Wilcox

• Mom

• Robert Lofthouse

• Ron Boykin

• Ruth Netting

Thanks everyone!
