November was a busy month winding down a bunch of Autodesk projects prior to our sabbatical.
Hoover Institution - Stanford
In early November, Jon went to Stanford with a group of Air Force fellows, to visit the Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank. There, we met with George P. Schultz, former Secretary of State, Treasury, and Labor. He was very lucid and it was fascinating to hear him speak of the post WWII world order and Americas role in shaping and leading it.
Convergence Workshop
In mid-November, Jon's team faciltiated an Autodesk workshop on industry convergence at our Portland offices.
Autodesk University
The third week in November was the annual Autodesk University conference in Las Vegas. At the end of the conference, Jon participated in an Autodesk Research team building exercise with heavy construction equipment at Dig This Las Vegas.

Sophie
Pre-Thanksgiving, our niece Megan, her husand Josh, and new great-niece Sophie came to San Francisco to visit. We had dinner at Zero-Zero. Sophie did not no quite how to deal with a restaurant (nor they with her), but she had a good time.
