+# Family
+
+[[!img carl-stacy-peru.jpg size="405x304" alt="Family photo"
+class="right"]] My family is the greatest source of joy in my
+life. Stacy and I have been married since December 30, 1995 and have
+had so many adventures raising our four sons, Cameron, Hyrum, Andrew,
+and Scott to adulthood (or at least getting there). I'm really looking
+forward to seeing what each of them will do in the next phase of their
+lives.
+
+# Software
+
+When I was about 10 years old, my Dad bought us our first computer,
+(an Apple ][e), and I started teaching myself how to program. I found
+software truly fascinating because it allowed for creating something
+where nothing had existed before and working in a medium of pure
+thoughtstuff. I've had the good fortune to spend a large part of my
+career in the world of "Free Software" where a worldwide community
+collaborates together on software.
+
+[[!img cairo-logo.png alt="Cairo logo" class="left"]] I'll mention two
+software projects which I created from scratch: The [cairo graphics
+library](https://cairographics.org) and the
+[notmuch](https://notmuchmail.org) mail system. I'm really pleased
+with both because not only did I build a succesful piece of software,
+but I was able to form a vibrant community project around the
+software. It's been very satisying to watch those projects have a life
+of their own beyond when I could dedicate much of my own time to them.
+
+During the COVID-19 pandemic, I started writing some simple games for
+family and friends to play together while isolated in our own
+homes. These are hosted at [LMNO games](https://lmno.games).
+
+Other little toy projects I have worked on are in various states of
+completion and can be found at my [personal git
+server](https://git.cworth.org).
+
+I've presented [[talks]] about several of my software projects which
+might be interesting to read about. I've always posted the slides I've
+presented, and I've recently started doing much better writeups so
+people that didn't hear me speak alongside the slides can still
+understand them.
+
+# Search and Rescue
+
+Since 2017 I've been active on Search and Rescue teams, currently on
+the [Clackamas County Search and
+Rescue](https://www.clackamas.us/sheriff/sar.html) team also known as
+CSAR. The work we do is hard, often thankless, but also hugely
+rewarding. I'm on specialty teams for both technical rope rescue and
+for trail-running. The friendships I've made through search and rescue
+are priceless. So many people volunteering so much time, money, and
+effort and strictly to help others.
+
+# Fitness
+
+I started [rock climbing](rock_climbing) in 2008 and I love the
+puzzle-solving nature of climbing and the many disciplines it leads to
+(toproping, lead climbing, sport climbing, trad climbing).
+
+In 2019 I started running, initially to rehabilitate my knee after a
+surgery. I found that my knee felt best as long I kept running several
+days a week, so I've tried to never stop. I've really fallen in love
+with doing long trail runs to cover in a single day what many people
+would backpack in 2 or 3 days. I get to see all the same things as the
+backpackers, but I have a lighter pack and I get to sleep in my own
+bed. My first 50k (31.1 miles) race was in November 2021 at Silver
+Falls. So that was my first ultramarathon without having competed in a
+marathon, (I had registered for one in 2020 but it was canceled for
+the pandemic).
+
+Ultrarunning introduced me to the crazy concept of the "backyard
+ultra". I thought it would be fun to test my own limits by
+participating in one. But when I found that none existed in Oregon, I
+decided to put one together myself, so now I'm the race director of
+the [Banana Slug Backyard Ultra](https://slug.run).

+here because you might be interested in hiring me, you will likely
+want to see my [resume](carl_worth.pdf).
+
+# Old news
+
+I once tried to write somewhat regularly in a [[blog]] but it is now
+just an archive of things I wrote quite some time ago.
