Andrew Shedlock and Denise Egan Shedlock produced a very handsome son, Ryan Andrew Shedlock, born via surgery on December 21, 2009 in Tamarac, Florida. Grandmother Anne Bookhout could not fly out of Binghamton, NY as planned due to snow storms on December 20 so, Anne got into one of her road tractors (a nice red Kenworth) and rode with two of (their) drivers who had a load of plastic fencing to deliver in central Florida.
The road trip was very interesting, especially going through Washington, DC where there was 24 inches of snow. The truck blew the alternator in Northern Virginia and Anne and the two drivers hung out at a repair shop for nearly 24 hours, getting back on the road at 5:30 PM on December 21. Anne and one of the drivers delivered the load and took off for Miami.
Grandma Anne arrived at 8:30 PM on December 22 at Andrew's house just in time to help Andrew with first grandchild, Madeline, and to welcome baby boy Ryan home on December 24. It was a great experience!
Fondly to all,

Here is a photo of Anne at a tender age, looking at her pony with probably the same sort of gaze directed at her newest grandchild! Well, maybe she has a bit more fondness for the baby.....
