  1. Can you imagine if you paid $20g+'and it was overcast? I'm actually interested in checking out Chile and catching the eclipse.
  2. You young guys have a lot to look forward to! I'm figuring I won't be around in 2045 and if I am certainly not in condition to travel anywhere at age 98.
  3. That would give you maximum totality period! I would hate to break my perfect record of refusing cruises but I'd consider this one. 20grand for my wife and me?
  4. Exactly what I was thinking when I booked the extra night. Also gives you the chance to savor the experience which I did. Age gives you a little wisdom on this stuff.
  5. Great shots! Over in Gallatin the clouds went poof and we had a great show. I talked to somebody at BNA yesterday getting ready to go home who had a cloud interfere north of Nashville somewhere but you and wxsniss and I were lucky. My wife's friend who I had dinner with Sunday evening was at Hendersonville at an eclipse party.
  6. Definitely aiming for 2024 if I don't do 2019. Gotta stay healthy though tonight I'm celebrating in downtown Nashville.
  7. If you burn your retina you could be seriously visually impaired-way worse than your current vision. Don't do it next time!
  8. I'm planning a big party in 2024 if I make it. May need to do 2019. I have to get a good camera. iPhone doesn't cut it.
  9. About 80%+. Sun is dimmer, it is cooler, and cumulus dissipating!
  10. Pretty good conditions now. Occasional cumulus but they're not increasing it seems.
  11. Triple Creek Park giving out free eclipse glasses in Gallatin. Huge venue so it doesn't seem that crowded. Made a good choice. Mainly clear still
  12. Damn-not a cloud in the sky at this moment. Feeling lucky!
  13. Just peeked outside the hotel window-nice day! Heading to Gallatin after a shower and coffee-hopefully will meet up with wxniss.
  14. It's going to be fabulous! I just got a text from a work colleague based in SF who's in Scotts Bluff,NE.
  15. Hot in Nashville-nice dinner with one of my wife's old friends. You know you're old when your wife arranges dinner with one of her female friends...lol. Drove to Gallatin. Not a lot of traffic around Nashville-lots of folks piling into this hotel-should be fun tomorrow evening. Happy eclipse viewing friends!
  16. Flight at 12:45 and TSA pre status makes security way easier...lol.
  17. Mazatlan would be ideal. Not sure I'll want to go that far at age 77 but we'll see.
