Hey Badger!
My son and I (and unfortunately my mom) are going to a place in Kansas that is suppose to experience total eclipse. Son ordered the glasses months ago and is soooooo exited. We will be taking a picnic lunch as the event will happen at 1 pm our time. The drive is about 3 hours. All the hotels in the town are full! I hadn't thought there would be such a big deal, but we figure that we can just drive around the country side and find a pasture to sit in.
Then Chris said yesterday .... I hope it isn't cloudy or rainy. OMG that would be such a disappointment!
The following day my mom takes me to the city where the hospital is that will be doing my surgery. The next day surgery, and the next day hopefully home again!
It will be a busy week, but I will be glad to have it over.
