    We are expecting perfect weather all afternoon for the eclipse, no clouds at all and 75 degrees. The local news just said police are expecting a million people to hit the city, up from 200,000 predicted yesterday. Every hotel for miles is booked out. There are multi-hour traffic jams on all the interstates so a lot of people won't make it into town. Police expect the traffic to just stop while everyone gets out to check out the eclipse. Local drivers still trying to get somewhere, and our interstates are pretty violent anyway. Recipe for chaos.

    We will be heading for the local park with our folding chairs, just a 10 min walk away. Bottles of water and plenty of vapes. If it gets crowded or rowdy we can just head home.
    Good luck.

    Good morning, hitt :) He has no one good to take his place for 3 days?
    No, I just meant that people goof off when he’s gone. One guy already took an extra 20 minutes for lunch which put everyone else behind on getting their lunches.

    He should have someone in his place that can prevent the goof off happening.

    We got to 99% of the sun eclipsed. It didn't get dark but it was noticeably dimmer. Funny thing is that I had some packages delivered to me right at the time of the peak. The poor girl delivering them wasn't my regular carrier but the clerk who had been my temporary supervisor. The regular carrier was off. I felt bad for having non-essential (ie non vapemail) packages come to me today.

    Success to report here. We got 4 mins. We checked the park half an hour in advance and there was nobody there except for the crew who mow the grass. Bit of bad timing there. So we watched it in our yard. Quite exciting. All the dogs in the neighborhood started barking but I think that was just from people cheering and fireworks going off. For a change nobody was firing guns.

    The estimate for eclipse visitors to Indy went from 200.000 yesterday, to a million this morning, and now after the event the official count is 125,000. The crowd estimators are almost as good as the weather guys.
    LOL, yes, no kidding. :lol:

    Glad you got to watch it in your yard.:) We watched from the back deck.

    Heather took that pic. She got a special lens for her phone camera.


    One of the guys at work put a welding lens in front of his camera and took a picture.
