It’s in 2 weeks bro

Edit: plus a year lmao I can’t tell time.

Riiight? I think I’m on the hairy edge of it and want to make sure I don’t miss it.

Our original plan was to go to Charleston to watch it on a boat, but then the weather was going to be shit for Charleston and I changed to north Georgia mountains. All the people we were going to see in Charleston were unimpressed by the eclipse behind 100% cloud cover.

That’s why for this next eclipse I’m reluctant to make big plans. Plane tickets, house rental, etc. what if there is a storm that day?

Early April in Canada? That’s a toss up

In Europe

Would Calgary see it good?

The Southern Hemisphere, we always miss the solar eclipse

Buy eclipse glasses now before they cost 100 times their price

In New Zealand

At my mother in laws, Central Canada.

Cry for me

You are going to need bigger binoculars.

I saw my first eclipse in 1979 by Goldendale WA. Drove 3 hours from Seattle overnight and another hour to a clear area. Clouds were iffy but we got a good view when the clouds parted for the whole eclipse.

In 2017 I went to Boise to see the last one, again my brother was with me as he was in 1979.

I am already planning my trip for 2024.

Doh, lol, fixed.

There was one just a few years ago and it was amazing, it's well worth any amount of travel to get there, we're fortunate enough to be just a couple hours north of where both pass by

Your reminder is 15 days after the eclipse lol

All those pictures that I can't zoom in on or enlarge. Perfect!

Heck, even a 70% eclipse was pretty damn rad and worth the hype.

Yep. My parent's house is in Indiana along the path of totality. April 8 is marked on everyone's calendars, everyone is taking the whole day off, we have out of state family and friends coming in, we're having a party and hopefully we don't have to drive to find clear skies. Luckily though it is later in the day so if we do need to drive, we have time.

Just to be safe.

You’re driving too high if clouds are an issue, get closer to the ground.

Looks like I've gotta check my friends in Quebec City

Learned that lesson the hard way.

Charlotte got a bit dark, Columbia got totally dark.

Too lazy for 2 hour drive for event of a life time (probably)

I live smack dab in the middle of the path of totality. Going to ask for a half day off work to really enjoy it if I can. If it's cloudy I might cry.

Drove from southern Indiana to Kentucky to reach the line of totality for the last one. This time I am only about 20 miles from the totality line, so I will be watching from my backyard! Maps say I will see 3 minutes, 23 seconds of totality, vs 4 minutes if I made the 20 or so mile trip.

Aw crap. I’m coming to the mainland to see it and I’m still debating on what state to go to. I was going to avoid renting car; but I guess it’ll be safer if I do. I don’t want to miss this!!!
