Random quote: My pass had disappeared. Not that I believed for a moment that this was an accident; in fact, I had suspected for some time now that the Cosmic Command, obviously no longer able to supervise every assignment on an individual basis when there were literally trillions of matters in its charge, had switched over to a random system. The assumption would be that every document, circulating endlessly from desk to desk, must eventually hit upon the right one. A time-consuming procedure, perhaps, but one that would never fail. The Universe itself operated on the same principle. And for an institution as everlasting as the Universe certainly our Building was such an institution the speed at which these meanderings and perturbations took place was of no consequence. - Stanislaw Lem (Memoirs Found in a Bathtub)

I have my glasses from the last eclipse. The report was that it wouldn't be very good over my house last time so my wife and I loaded up and drove over to Illinois. We found an abandoned graveyard and set up on a hillside. Of course, an isolated rain storm cam in and obscured everything! Come to find out, everyone at home had a perfect view! I'll try not to screw it up this time!

Location: Great Lakes, USA		Once again, I am not in the path of totality but am close enough to drive to it. Not sure that will happen, but I will watch the partial with my telescope which has a lense for observing the sun.

It's incredible how sometimes the unexpected can happen, like the isolated rainstorm, just when you're hoping for a perfect view. But hey, at least you have a memorable experience to look back on, right?
