I am going to watch a total eclipse of my eyeballs after 2 all nighters in a row.

Pretty cool. Temp drop and reduced light. Neat.

I spent the entire time re-seeding the back yard. Noticed a slight difference in sunlight but it was more like a partly cloudy day.

No boat, back in the suds.

It's cool to see...for the first few minutes, unless it's a total eclipse.
The thing I was hoping to see, and was happy to see, was the time-lapse video from the ISS showing the shadow cross over the country!
That's what it will look like when the space armada comes to take over the planet....one big a$$ed shadow!

Must be why I flew the 18th green, or maybe operator error😜

Much to do over nothing really from my yard, a little cloudy and a slight dimness.

Woman where we were working got her eclipse glasses from Amazon deliver by the mailman at 12:30. She came out when we returned from lunch and handed us a pair! Was cool to see, and very cool of her.... So we felt like we participated.... The coverage of the areas in total zones on ABC was pretty good. Got pretty dark...

I went to TN to be in the path of totality, here is a small composite of the 300+ images.
Summary: WOW, AMAZING, Totally WORTH IT!!!
I saw the eclipse in 1979 and also got a very few pics back them (film vs digital)
