    built in 15 min hold. WHY have a countdown timer with built in hold like this? Just make this T-19 min, and keep counting.

    In the car, we’re talking about other events I have seen that are in the same league. For celestial stuff, this is orders of magnitude more impressive than anything else I’ve seen. If there were someday a really bright, naked eye comment that might be in kind of the same league. Maybe. For other natural stuff? Seeing the Himalayas. That reset my scale for mountains. Seeing wildlife on the African savanna reset my notions about animals.

    Yeah, my image Pictures really don’t do it justice. Maybe if you’re a really phenomenal photographer, and it’s near sunrise or sunset so that the eclipse is near terrain so you can compose something really amazing you could get one 1000th of it in a picture. Hearing the collective gasps and “oh my God!” in the park was pretty amazing In short, go to Spain in 2026.

    In their infinite wisdom, Oklahoma decided to block the right lane of I 40 with their version of traffic barriers. Not cones but something else. For no reason. No equipment nothing torn up the road was fine and it took us over an hour to go 10 miles.

    Yeah, I booked in the middle of town, just off highway (Bricktown?) at one of the hotels fighting it out for best in town. We’ll be on the road by 6am, shouldn’t be rush hour issues that early. Road trip with a hotel with a concierge
