Ventured into the path of totality and all I got were these crappy photos!

Protip: Don't try to wing it and shoot freehand... use the dang tripod.

Photos still interesting. We all get to see photos. You went there and really saw it.
Just enough clouds here to obscure whatever partial happened. I might have gone to Waco, TX or close but (counts on fingers) that is 590 miles (950 kilometers) so 1180 miles there and back. (scribbles on paper while mumbling) Optimistically 20 mpg is 59 gallons of gas at about $3.20 per gallon = $188.

Even at $188 it would have been a bargain. I *tried* to talk you into it!
I spent about 200 bucks on gas and food but split some of the cost with a nephew, who also traveled with me to see the 2017 total eclipse.
I see why people catch the bug and end up chasing them around the globe.
In other stick news, file this one under 'confusing perspective'.
