This particular guitar was the first instrument ordered through Fender Mod Shop back in mid 2016. Honest truth is that the array of options available to choose from was not near as rich as that that we enjoy in present-day Mod Shop - but it made for a nice and distinctive guit, regardless. Now, that said … not sure what’s more impressive here, the guitar or Arizona’s famous “Four Peaks” in the distant background! ⛰️ #fendermodshop #modshop #fender #fenderguitars #fourpeaks #fourpeaksaz #arizona #strat #stratocaster #fenderstrat https://www.instagram.com/p/Clh2yVcLxrp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Do you have a favorite Aleutian/Alaskan volcano?

oooh! This is a good question with a long convoluted answer!

So I grew up in Anchorage which has frankly a ridiculous level of volcanic activity in the neighborhood. There are 4 active volcanos that are close enough to cause issues with the airport which is a big deal since its one of the largest cargo hubs in the world. They are Iliamna, Augustine, Redoubt and another one I can not call to mind at the moment but will remember in a few hours and it will drive me nuts until then. They all went off at least once while I was a kid living down in town and ranged from cool looking gas plumes on the horizon to shutting down the city. So those are my childhood friends who will always have a soft spot, but my favorite Aleutian volcano is a tie between Shishaldin where my brother works in the summers and Bogoslof which was a monitored volcano until one day all the monitors went offline simultaneously because the volcano vaporized the entire island.

Also on the list is Fourpeaks which is an honorary position because its technically an extinct volcano that no one even realized was a volcano until it went off. It is also directly under the landing path of Ted Steven's International which is a very bad place for a mountain to suddenly start offgassing. But it was a very funny moment because everyone from the mayor to the federal government was suddenly asking geology questions that had bad answers and then the mountain stopped doing anything and hasn't done anything since, though it is super monitored now. There are 53 known volcanos in AK and only 26 of them are monitored (as of last time I checked) and most of them are directly under multi billion dollar international air cargo shipping lanes.

The Active Volcano in Alaska; Fourpeaked

[whatamipan]

Imagine having to do a timeline assignment but you have to do it on historical events that happened on your birthday. Then you remember that your birthday is the same day the Constitution was signed over 200 years ago and you were also born some hundred years after the single day war known as the Battle of Antietam.

Though I did learn that Wall Street reopened only 6 days after 9/11 and that was the longest amount of time that it had gone in the last 70 years for being closed so long. I also learned that Fourpeaked Mountain in Alaska erupted on 09/17/06 for the first time in over 10,000 years.
