    I only had to work a half day, so I went to my brother's house for a little family get together.
    I didn't smoke anything with any theme, though that was a good idea.

    I had a Padron 1964 while outside watching the heavenly festivities.

    That is a worthy cigar of the occasion!
    You were in the path of totality, right?

    Oh yeah. It was a madhouse around here with people coming in from all over the place to see it.

    That’s cool that you live in the totality area Paul. We were 95% and while it was cool, it didn’t get overly dark. Which IMO is the coolest part. My cat attacked my dog out of the blue, which he never does. Cat is 25lbs, so he can do damage, but smartly the dog ran away.
    Enjoy and care for your parents, once they are gone you become an orphan!

    This is not my photo, but was taken by a friend of a friend just a few miles from where I live.

    Quite amazing, really.
    The sun’s diameter is 400 times the diameter of the moon, and the moon “happens” to be 400 times closer to earth so that the apparent sizes are nearly identical, allowing for our eclipse.

    A near impossible probability.
    Coincidence? I think not.

    I just learned this Monday while reading about the eclipse.
    Very fascinating.
