You are such an amazing aunt. I know how excited I would have been at that age to have gotten all those great presents. I don't know anything about Dungeons and Dragons. When my son was in his teens I remember their games going all night.

We are in a prime place for the eclipse and there are visitors in town from as far away as Germany. All hotels and B&Bs have been booked for months. Schools and many businesses are closing for the event. Last total eclipse was in 1806.

Our condo is having a viewing party tomorrow. There will be good food and wine and a chance to talk and catch up with people. Should be fun.

You didn't have any of the totality in 2017? My aunt was directly underneath it and it was amazing. I cut up a pair of eclipse glasses and my photos were incredible (if I do say so myself). I think if Ohio and Tennessee as being near so I thought that whole area had at least a few minutes of the totality. I think we had about 6 minutes.

I am in Warren wnich is NE top of state. In 2017 you needed to in the southwest portion of Ohio like Cincinnati for total eclipse. We had about a minute and not total. I was driving at the time and missed it. This time they say we will have about 8 minutes of total darkness.

If you ever decide on a second career, be a photographer. You are so gifted.

Aww, thank you. I enjoy it but am also very happy to have digital, there are more bad ones than good ones!

I have digital and it is so rare for me to ever get a good one. You have the eye and the ability to catch at the right time.

I agree with you! Digital is just awesome. I also love post editing because I tend to shoot in raw and JPEG. The raw requires the editing but my P&S is all jpeg so it usually just gets cropped or what not.

We really do live in amazing times for technology.

Aww thank you so much!

We are on,y getting around 80% totality here BUT it's supposed to be cloudy so we'll probably miss out.
