Hopefully you don't have to drive out of State, lol.

Good luck to you.  I hope you get some good pics.

Not at all, actually Tongue

The total eclipse will pass over Salem so it won't be an enormous effort to get in its path - Portland will get a pretty major eclipse, it just won't get full totality and with this likely being the only total eclipse over my home state that I'll see, I'm gonna make sure I'm in the path of totality.

Not a great photo but it's the best I got of the Venus transit in June, 2012:



I had my camera set up in the conference room at my office and made all my coworkers look Tongue  How often do you get to see something like that?  They needed to see it.

NICE PIC!!

lucky buggers.  I've yet to witness one, myself.

I saw one back in the 1979's... Pretty cool that we get another one in a couple of years - and that I now have a telescope equipped for solar observing instead of just a camera obscura.

That's very cool.  Someday I will get to look through a proper telescope.

Nice chatting with you.  I must go to bed now.  ttyl!
