    My eclipse viewing must've worked out as well as I thought last night (early this morning) as when I looked up, all I saw was dark!!

    Guess I don't have to practice view any longer, I'm ready. :salute:

    If you all ask me especially nicely, I will share my special glasses with you and let you practice while on my special short bus.

    I remember that one too. I took a welding mask to work with me so I could have a look.

    Provide an authentic certificate that those tumbleweeds came from a secret jack-a-lope breeding ground, you've got a winner there. :yes:

    Anyhoooos... going out to Neb. for the event.
    I hope to take pictures and stuff. Going to celebrate my folks wedding anniversary at the same time so a double bonus.

    My mother was adamant that she would have adequate eye protection for me, for viewing the event. So darn sweet, I just wanted to pat her on the head and say "Thanks Mom, always looking out for me."
