Saw the Eclipse ... Sort Of
I'm sorry, but I have no eclipse photos to share. I messed that up. But I did get to see totality.
For the April 8, 2024 eclipse, Dave and I committed early to Texas.
Seemed like that was where the best long-range forecasts were.
In the last week before the eclipse, the forecasts were no longer
looking so good. But I've heard so many stories of people driving around
trying to chase holes in the clouds, only to be skunked,
while people who stayed put got a better view.
We decided to stick with our plan, which was to stay in San Angelo
(some 190 miles off the centerline) the night before,
get up fairly early and drive to somewhere near the centerline.
