Retirement gift to myself - a Santa Cruz OMG (Orchestral Model Grand), in sunburst with koa binding. Adirondack spruce top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, ebony fretboard, bridge, and headstock overlay. Anthology Gear leather strap. It plays beautifully, and looks great, I think.

The Oregon Coast was showing us its best this evening. We had a nice dinner at the Portside Bistro, and was treated to this lovely sunset in Garibaldi, OR. #oregon #garibaldi #garibaldioregon #sunset #oregoncoast

Saw this li’l fellow on yesterday’s walk out back. Glad I heard it rattle before I stepped on it! #rattlesnake #snakes #owensvalley

We always stop in Beatty when driving from Bishop to Las Vegas, wild donkeys can pop up anywhere. This one was just chillin’ by the gas pumps when we stopped at the Death Valley Nut & Candy Co., our usual rest stop. #donkeys #nevada #beattynevada #wilddonkeys #justbeattythings

If you’re a father, I hope you’re enjoying it as much as I am. Happy Father’s Day to you.#fathersday #dads #dadlife #fathers

It’s been the greatest joy of my life to be a dad to two wonderful kids. I’ve enjoyed every moment- the laughter, and smiles, as yes, even the worry and tears. I wouldn’t trade a second of it for anything. I look forward to being surprised and delighted by them for as long as I’m in this world.

The No Kings protest march was much larger than anticipated here in Bishop, CA. For a population of 3800 to have around a thousand attendees is really something. Both sides of Main St. were completely filled. People really are fed up.#nokings #fedup #bishopcalifornia #resist

Trump in 2020, “We can’t call in the National Guard unless requested by a governor.”

Trump in 2025, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m beginning to think this guy may not be exactly honest…

It’s nice to be back home. This beavertail cactus bloomed since the last time I walked past it last Thursday. #springflowers #beavertailcactus #owensvalley #mustangmesa

SoCal Edison replaced the transformer at our house this morning, and restored grid power after a raven’s nest ignited last night and knocked us offline.

A raven’s nest caught fire, and burned up the Edison transformer to our house. Power was out overnight, but our solar and battery allowed us to still take showers and proceed normally this morning. SCE fixed the transformer this morning, so we’re back on grid.

Joe Griego @joegriego.bsky.social · Apr 27

A bird nest on top of the transformer next to the house caught fire. Luckily, it’s raining, so the embers from the nest didn’t cause a wider brush fire. Power is currently out until SoCal Edison can come out to replace the burned equipment. #sce #transformerfire
