My Name is Joe and I live and work in Maine. On this blog you’ll mostly find posts that relate to my work in GIS. You’ll also find posts related to my hobbies of cooking, hiking, and organizing for a better tomorrow. Contact me here.

Website Technical Details:

• From 2019-2022 I self-hosted a WordPress site on a Raspberry Pi4 in my apartment in Portland, Maine. This was only possible because my ISP left ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) open, and maintained a static domain although unofficially. After moving, the website was briefly down.
• In 2023 I recreated this same website (at least the content) using Flask. Posts were re-written in markdown. This was a great way to learn more Python, but at the end of the day slowed down the ability to create posts.
• In 2024 I moved back to WordPress. This website is currently hosted on a Digital Ocean droplet.
