In case some of you live under a rock, I thought I'd pass on that there is an eclipse on Tuesday. You are supposed to stand outside, with your special glasses on Tuesday morning about 3 AM in order to get the best view.

We are heading to camp in a couple hours so will be there to watch Monday's solar eclipse. Totality will only be for several seconds there so we may drive about 30 minutes northwest to get a longer view. It is supposed to be at least partly cloudy, so we'll have to see if it's worth it. My wife scheduled the day off so I hope it good. We'll have a good time anyway.

I guess it will get real dark......but if it's dark already, will it get even more dark? I never paid attention to this science stuff back in the day....

My buddy lives in northern NY, said the stores and campgrounds are packed. His wife works in a liquor store and sold wine to a couple from Italy.
My wife is house sitting for a woman in Nashville that flew to Austin TX to see the eclipse. Her nieces live around Nashville, so that's a win

Clutching a Trump Bible is good but also wearing your Red MAGA Hat, a $399 pair Trump Sneakers along with a deck of Trump Trading Cards & couple DJT Stock certificates in your fanny back would certainly ensure you a "glorious" sendoff!!

Plus if anyone has any of those Trump Steaks stored-up what would be a better last Earthly meal especially as their "Expiration Date" is fast approaching!!

I was just outside to take a peek. The only thing I can see right now is a big, black dot when I blink.

It was behind the clouds a bit here, but when I put the glasses on,I could see it.
It was in and out of the clouds kinda neat
